This used to be the soundtrack to my waterfall soaked, mountaintop Georgia vacations when I was younger

Slowdive - Slowdive (2017)
It was difficult not to have sky-high expectations going into this album. They are one of my all-time favourite bands after all. But hearing their first new album in 22 years had me perhaps a tiny bit underwhelmed. This album does not scale the awesomeness of Souvlaki, Pygmalion, or any of their early EPs, but what we do have is still a good album. Musically it sounds like the missing link between Souvlaki and Pygmalion and I give them credit for not just completely rehashing their past. But props to them for making a comeback album which doesn't suck.

Same here. No idea what it is, but the fact that I can't read it without effort makes me wanna listen to it. Actual cover reminds me of Khanate's debut and SYL's City.

Well, where to begin...
The label is Edition Modern out of Bucharest.
They're pretty much devoted to the music of
husband and wife composers Dumitrescu and
Avram with about 50 releases. Any of them
that you are interested in, I can send you samples
because they're composers I'm pretty devoted to
and have all of the discs.

Dumitrescu's music is a kind of spectralist form
that is distinct from French spectralism.
Often, the music sounds improvised, but is very
carefully notated (he described to me his notation
software when I asked). Part of one of the scores
is reproduced in the middle of the cover above.

If you ever decide to purchase any of the CDs,
I'll have to warn you that the actual disc quality is so shoddy
that it is the only label that I've ever broken a CD while
removing it from the jewel case - real crappy thin discs that
you can actually see thru(!?). Back in the 90s, I broke two of them.
I'm extra careful now.

Also, they had a weird habit of reproducing their CD
distributor's names on the FRONT covers - often misspelling them
(should be "a-musik" on this one, for example).

Yes, "Doryphories" is the last piece on the CD,
but it's performed by the Hyperion Ensemble.
More info here.

Also, what I mean by "send" is that I can upload it to YouTube for you.
