A dive into melancholy - so dreamy and overwhelming that we slowly start to drown in it.
“Like a wet dream
Like a symphony”
Canadian artist Aaron Powell leads us into Midnight Society - an introspective journey steeped in nostalgic sorrow, personal challenges and solitude. The title references the childhood group from the series "Are You Afraid of the Dark?", which fittingly reflects the album’s dark and narrative-driven character.
“Like a first kiss

A solid, cohesive project with Bones in great form and Grayera perfectly in sync with him.
I can confidently say that Bones sounds great with Grayera - something their earlier project WITHERED already proved. The mixtape plays smoothly from start to finish, with no need to skip tracks. It’s dark, as you’d expect from Bones. While it blends different styles, it doesn’t feel chaotic - instead, it all fits together well.
I’d say DUNGEON is one of Bones’ strongest ... read more
Urban, Tense Melancholy
Turn on the Bright Lights is a project by the New York-based band Interpol. It’s melodic post-punk with shades of indie, post-rock, and dream pop - filled with shifting moods: tense and nervous, yet calm, dark and gloomy.

A less surrenderdorothy in surrenderdorothy.
On this project the line between Bones’ softer, folk-inspired side and the darker, heavier tones of oregontrail (sadly that project remains so underdeveloped) begins to blur - softening the melancholic, fragile quality of the raw surrenderdorothy sound and making it feel less defined and less immersive than on earlier releases like nobodywantsme or breathingexercise. Still, Greaf brings back some of that atmosphere with the guitars and the ... read more
Mysterious, minimalist improvised jazz.
On Moons Melt Milk Light, Anenon guides us through acoustic, intimate sonic landscapes shaped by saxophone, bass clarinet, and piano. The music draws you in, at times, seems to freeze time in its vivid, intense mood. The instruments feel remarkably close - the recording approach captures the tiniest textures and background elements, subtly woven into ambient arrangements. The minimalistic form gives the album a sense of freshness and quiet ... read more
Smooth jazz with a hip-hop pulse - perfect for staying focused.
Green is a ten-track project by UK multi-instrumentalist Andy Baxter, who records under the name Robohands. He performs drums, guitar, bass, piano, synthesizers, and composed the entire album. It blends jazz sensitivity with hip-hop grooves and occasional ambient moods. The influence of jazz fusion can also be felt in the way these elements interact - layered, loose, and subtly experimental.
The album is Baxter’s debut as ... read more
