Take the Train to Manchester
The new Corduroy Institute album is finally available for download on Bandcamp—link in bio. This record contains nine songs which were created between December of 2019 and August of 2023— the longest span of time we have ever devoted to any of our releases.
Take the Train to Manchester coalesced around the principle of discontinuity. Every piece was crafted intermittently over a period of years, thus allowing audio recordings from different moments of our past intermingle to create compositions which we ourselves could have never foreseen. The end result is a document of alienation written to and from the forgotten.
As with previous efforts, the music was created through multitracked improvisations and the lyrics were derived from cut-ups taken from across the gamut of print media. During the course of our sonic research we employed the Bass VI, synthesizers, guitars, drum machines, samplers, guitar pedals, loopers, digital modular synthesizers, and even a microcassette recorder to create the sonorities on these recordings.
We invite you to listen, download, and provide your peer review.

Another compilation release of old songs we wanted transferred over to Dvzk. All the songs were heavily inspired and indebted to Discipline-era King Crimson and composer Steve Reich. Link to bandcamp below.

Maya Shenfeld’s new album was born from creativity and sparked in a Berlin studio and a marble quarry in Portugal. On Under The Sun, the classically trained musician and sound artist delves deep into our interactions with our surroundings and how we perceive our world. Modular synths and electronics weave hypnotically alongside the haunting reverberations of an organ, a spiritual choir, and field recordings gathered from unpredictable sound sources. The brilliance of this album lies in Shenfled’s expert use of repetition, empty spaces, and subtle details. It is as much a journey through sound as an invitation to reflect upon our relationship with the world around us. This is, without a doubt, an album not to be missed.

15. Colin Stetson | When We Were That What Wept for the Sea
🇺🇸 Etats-Unis | 52HZ | 71 minutes | 16 morceaux
Une partie de la renommée du saxophoniste Colin Stetson vient de sa maitrise totale de la respiration circulaire, technique lui permettant de jouer de manière quasi ininterrompue, produisant des lignes de basse constantes et des textures sonores d’une richesse et d’une complexité incroyablement évocatrices. Ce nouvel album de plus de 70 minutes est marqué par l’urgence et la spontanéité, venant rendre hommage au père de l’artiste récemment disparu. Les souvenirs de voyages maritimes vécus avec lui, émaillés de luttes contre la houle comme de moments suspendus, sont la matière première de cette odyssée tantôt méditative tantôt survoltée.

Where do people get this misconception that every single wildlife case at a vet clinic is euthanased so it's better to not take them in even if they're obviously hurt or sick and in need of treatment?!?!
Friendly reminder that a member of the public should not be able to easily pick up or catch a wild animal. We are not in a disney movie. If you can pick it up*, 80% of the time its extremely hurt or sick.
Wildlife, and most animals for that matter, do not show pain as humans do. That does not mean they are not in pain and suffering.
Veterinarians only euthanase wild animals that are suffering from extreme injury or illness, or animals that would stress themselves to death in a hospital setting that cannot be released and survive in the wild with their issue.
We do euthanase some animals, but that's because it's the best welfare decision for that animal and its specific problem.
Maybe trust the professionals trained in providing treatment to animals instead of some Karen on Facebook who demonises vets because she can't understand a bird with multiple wing and shoulder fractures is very unlikely to regain flight and return to the wild and her plan of keeping it means it will live a life of chronic pain and suffering.
*Disclaimer: If you live in a country where diseases such as rabies are endemic, you should not handle wildlife at all if you are not trained or vaccinated. This post is not recommending members of the public handle wildlife in any country.
