about

Cassette: umor-rex.org/ur123
Limited edition of 100 copies
—
In just a few years and with a handful of releases, the Canadian producer better known as Yves Malone has earned himself a reputation. In The Beginning of Nothing he continues working with many layers of analog synths and a keen sense of drum machines to create atmospheres and textures extracted from late twentieth-century collective fears of a dystopian future. Created as a sort of score to an internal elegy, Yves Malone creates soundtracks of the daily fear, regret, and resignation that is his waking life, an effort to isolate and negate this anxiety, which is a constant and unwanted companion. Sequenced on mostly working vintage gear, The Beginning of Nothing tries to extricate a bit of beauty from a rapidly darkening landscape.

Lamentations
by William Basinskisupported by 6 fans who also own “The Beginning of Nothing”
September 2022 - I must admit to not liking this song when it appeared on the album, and I didn’t think it belonged but, as it continued I came to enjoy it the most.

Pretty compositions and nice interplay. The album shows Okkyung Lee's melodic sides.

Everywhere at the end of time
by The Caretakersupported by 6 fans who also own “The Beginning of Nothing”
I first listened through this a couple years ago, and I don't know why I hadn't bought it until now. Regardless, I think everyone should listen through this in its entirety at least once, the best way I can describe it is beautifully haunting. I'm sure my favorite track will keep changing forever, too.

Cresta
by John Escreet/Pera Krstajic/Anthony Fungfeatured on Bandcamp Radio Jan 25, 2022
go to album -
Hushed dreampop and synthpop songs on the latest from Vanessa Garcia-Cuevas, with gentle melodies floating over soft keys.
go to album -
Baltimore's Woven In feels especially focused and resonant on her latest LP, fusing goth, drone, and experimental electronics.

Utterly brilliant and transportational if that is even a word! - so pleased to have found this one - and purely by chance!
