Kurt Swinghammer - Turpentine wind (Cultural engineering, 02/2011) http://swinghammer.com/

I was fortunate enough to live in Vancouver when Kurt Swinghammer had released his masterpiece Vostok 6, one of my favorite albums of the previous decade. A brilliant concept album of unique complexity and outstanding execution, it was like nothing I have ever heard (nor have since).

That year I made it my goal to follow his career and now, finally, he will be releasing a new album. Unfortunately, I was unable to locate any sample material from that album, but just by going back to Vostok 6 I immediately become elated.

Another album I'm waiting for is the new Alela Diane. Here are two tracks from it.

Alela Diane – Alela Diane & wild divine (Rough trade, 05/04/2011)

Force publique - Fickle www.forcepublique-music.com/

Fickle by FORCE PUBLIQUE

French for cartridge - A hundred and one (2010) www.frenchforcartridge.com/

We three and the death rattle – Sucker punched (2011) www.myspace.com/Wethreeandthedeathrattle

Too bad the rest of their work is worthy of the following adjective

Innerpartysystem - American trash (2011)

Die Fremde (When we leave) (Feo Aladag, 2010)

Kak ya provyol etim letom (How I ended this summer) (Aleksei Popogrebsky, 2010)
