Review excerpt:
"Thank you Doug Seidel and Todd Tuttle for making such an off-kilter album The Boy in the Barley Bag, which is a wonderfully experimental album that utilizes homemade devices, instruments, electronics, animals and sometimes other people.
It’s too early to tell but The Boy in the Barley Bag seems like a damn near masterpiece to me. You’d think music this experimental and avant garde might feel pretentious, cerebral and high art but it doesn’t - not one bit. In fact the main feeling I got was that it was a fun album. This is essential listening."
This collection of six fiddle songs is dark in color and mood, with Mattrey treating her instrument with ghostly digital effects. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 26, 2021
Argentinian producer XNIDA makes dense experimental techno that burbles with nervous modular synth lines and churns with industrial rhythms. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 21, 2021
