Laurel Halo: Raw Silk Uncut Wood

Laurel Halo  Raw Silk Uncut Wood  Latency Recordings  Berlin-based, American-born sound-artist and composer Laurel Halo loves skitterish percussion, tinkering pianos and strident textures. She loves jazz settings – and then totally fucking with them, and she creates the best movie soundtracks for non-existent movies. All of that is on display here on Raw Silk Uncut Wood – but overall this is her most […]

E N T: P.T.T.V (Post-Traumatic-Tele-Vision)
