"Primitive American Guitar": A late-career, niche release by legendary guitarist John Feifey. As expected, it features an extraordinary sense of tension and the raw essence of the American landscape.
An experimental album recorded at the artist’s home in Oregon in ’95–’96. While the guitar playing draws on influences from folk, blues, country, classical, and world music, the core of the album lies in a darkness reminiscent of the American wilderness. It’s a world that fans will find irresistible. (Original Japanese text by Shhhhh)

Two tracks from the team-up of Blake Mills and Sam Gendel, featuring female vocalist Amelia Meath. Effortlessly high-quality — exactly what you'd expect.
Featuring Amelia Meath, who's been part of the offbeat electro-pop duo Sylvan Esso and, before that, belonged to Mountain Man, a vocal group performing Appalachian folk (American folk songs born and sung in the Appalachian Mountains). Her vocals carry that Appalachian folk lineage — a real folkloric air — set against playing by two artists who need...Read more (Original Japanese text by Shhhhh) no introduction. There's a post-nu-jazz feel here too, plus a hint of Brazilian music. Wonderful. The B-side (sample2) is an instrumental brimming with their signature style. (Original Japanese text by Shhhhh)
Multi-instrumentalist Peter Broderick, raised in Oregon, USA. Cozy experimental folk from a maverick whose range swallows everything from hushed piano to Arthur Russell. Fantastic. Warms you right up.
Between post-classical piano albums (excellent ones) and an Arthur Russell covers record, he's always come across as someone doing exactly as he pleases, but this new one is a vocal album that feels like the sum total of all those varied pursuits. It was reportedly recorded in his own bedroom in the summer of 2019, which is why he himself files it ...Read more (Original Japanese text by Shhhhh)under "experimental bedroom pop." Sure enough, the banjo sounds wonderfully warm and the melodies carry the light bearing of American and British pop, yet behind it all is production that has clearly passed through various trends at every key turn. A real pro. And yes, Arthur Russell's influence can be felt all over. He's produced Nils Frahm, and the swing from Anglo-Saxon folk to fine-grained experimentalism recalls a certain period of Josephine Foster, so there's an edge here too, but at its root is a gentle, nap-in-the-afternoon calm that keeps the whole thing breathing, and that's what has me hitting repeat. Just when you were thinking there hadn't been a good Americana indie folk record lately, here's the perfect one. Give it a long listen. (Original Japanese text by Shhhhh)

A journey through world music with old man Van Dyke. Volume 3. The theme: "Phantom America?" You've never heard "Amazing Grace" like this! Discover America — a new release from Van Dyke Parks, the maestro and crown jewel of the US popular music world, out on his own label BANANASTAN.
Side B features the melody of that needless-to-say standard, the 19th-century hymn "Amazing Grace," performed by Van Dyke Parks on accordion with his orchestra. Side A carries "Hold Back Time," a product of "Orange Crate Art," the unexpected 1995 collaboration with Brian Wilson that came 30 years after their first pairing. This is the third install...Read more (Original Japanese text by COMPUMA)ment in a run of six consecutive 7-inch releases. With its careful packaging and sleeve art by a different lavish lineup of artists each time, this looks set to be a treasured donut-hole single you absolutely must not miss. A lifetime keeper.
