New #review today: "The new #Pinhdar album, Comfort in the Silence, the third #FruitsDeMerRecords release by the Italian duo, finds Cecilia and Max refining the distinctive sound they have been developing over the past several years. Their blend of #TripHop, #DreamPop, #DarkWave, #NewWave, and electronica feels more assured and cohesive than ever, with rich atmospheric textures providing the foundation for Cecilia's crystal-clear, emotionally resonant vocals." #ExposeOnline #ElectronicMusic http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/pinhdar-comfort-in-the-silence-6.html

New #review today: "#SisterLove, featuring #ClifBrigden (#AgeOfChance, #WorldOfTwist) and #JeremyLeahy (The #GentlePeople), emerges from the early 90s chill-out underground with “The Hypnotist,” a track that feels both era-specific and strangely timeless. Originally released in 1992 on the ON label, it now returns as a 7-inch 45 rpm single on #FruitsDeMerRecords giving the track new physical form and renewed context." #ExposeOnline http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/sisterlove-the-hypnotist-6.html

New #review today: "#FruitsDeMerRecords has released Synesthesia, which could be viewed as by the supergroup of #IcarusPeel (guitars), #StevePalmer (soundscapes, composition), #JayTausig (drums), and #RobGould (keyboards).
