Measured Not Found

by Biota

supported by

Opposition_de_Phase You are entering an old house, used as a musical school, in a small country town of your childhood memories. All doors are open, and notes from accordion, violin, guitar and piano are emerging from everywhere. A female voice evokes a kind of celtic ballads. From this chaos, a kind of comfortable nostalgia is making you cry, gently. Storm is preparing outside. Let's stay a little bit more...

about

Seven years in the making, the now almost legendary reclusive American art and sound collective's new work extends its unique amalgamation of ancient and modern instruments, multiple musical vocabularies, immaculate crafting and detailed studio manipulation into a seamless and immersive unfolding of suspended time. This is an exceptional group that has created a sound-world that's both instantly recognisable and irremediably human.

Ensemble: Clavioline, French horn, prepared music boxes, Hammond organ, guitars, ektara, Fender rhodes, strumstick, trumpet, bass, piano, synthesiser, harmonica, voice, flute, rubab, pump organ, accordion, kit drums, misc. percussion, tabla, biomellowdrone, bent circuits, dumbek and violin.

Disquiet
by The Necks

supported by 10 fans who also own “Measured Not Found”

I thought Bleed was very good, but not great. Disquiet, however, is greatness. An album of this length is risky, but it works as three disks individually, and as a three hour whole. Rapid Eye Movement and Ghost Net are equally propelling in completely different ways. Causeway is utterly beautiful from the opening notes, and sublimely shocking when the drums finally join in. Warm Running Sunlight seems to suspend time. Disquiet could be even longer if it wanted to. This is my #5 album of 2025. rvss.eel

Travel
by The Necks

supported by 9 fans who also own “Measured Not Found”

You'd think that the statement "this is the work of amazing musicians playing together" should apply to everything that I choose to listen to, but I still feel the need to emphasize it here. Four songs, 17-21 minutes each, and every moment is alive with intensity, filled with atmosphere, shrouded with energy that pulls you forward even in the most repetitive or simplistic moments. Travel is dramatic, in the calmest, coolest way, and it is very good. rvss.eel

Pocket Poem
by Anthony Pirog

supported by 9 fans who also own “Measured Not Found”

Hooray, Cuneiform Records revived their special weekend offers, starting with a relatively calm (compared to most other offerings on that adventurous label) album. With all the hardly bearable noise coming out of DC (and I'm not talking about any musicians), it's great that these DC stalwarts of wayward music stubbornly keep releasing things that the world really should hear/lsiten to... Make freedom great again! Carsten Pieper
