Album Review: Femi Kuti + Made Kuti – Legacy +

  • February 12, 2021
  • Staff Writers
I’ll be the first to admit that I’m no afrobeat scholar, but there’s something undeniably enticing about a double album calling itself Legacy+ that’s attached to the Kuti name. I…

ALBUM REVIEW: Dale Berning – ‘Horse Stories’: spacious, minimal and delightful art soundtrack

  • February 10, 2021
  • Chris Sawle
Dale Berning's The Horse Stories is humble, in the very best way; it delights in the tiny and the everyday with a surreal wonder. It has eagle-eyed focus; it's absolutely beautiful. It's often as close as music can get to absolute quietude while still retaining a sense of melody and spatial wizardry. If you loved the Clicks + Cuts series of compilations, Ryoji Ikeda, Colleen or Jan Jelinek; The Boats, Alva.Noto, any of these artists who travel deep into the magical, miniaturised web of pure sound, then this record is so, so top of your shopping list. Bravo, Flau, for making it available again.
