"Recorded in the pastoral setting of the Headlands Center For The Arts, Sausalito, CA this LP features four "eternal ragas for the infinite now", a dense and arrestingly affective drone mass created by Fullman's Long Stringed Instrument - a system of dozens of 50 foot wires tuned in Just Intonation and 'bowed' with rosin coated fingers - plus Wong's cello and gongs, dulcimer, vocals and bells played by Barn Owl.

"'Radiant Intervals' is the first Eleh LP on Important since '08s 'Floating Frequencies/Intuitive Synthesis Vol.3', and follows one of the Wire magazine's (and our) top records of 2010, the incredible 'Location Momentum' for Touch. Continuing with investigations into physically tactile tones and drones, this LP offers four further modular synth expeditions eternally moving towards the distant point depicted on the gorgeous, letterpress printed sleeve."

White Fence - Is Growing Faith (2011)
"The most obvious comparison would be Ariel Pink, but White Fence has really gone a step further than him with the deeply applied effects, getting right under and into the skin of each authentically-crafted song in order that nothing seems quite as it should. "

Il Balletto di Bronzo - Ys (1972)
"The music on here is thundering, cacophonous and simply unrelenting in its sheer, brute force. This also stands as one of the best keyboard-based albums of all time; Gianni Leone employs the full range of classic keys, from Hammond, Moog and Mellotron to piano and harpsichord, pitting them in savage, fiery duels that will absolutely tear your head off. These are contrasted against violent guitar riffs and surging basslines, making for a chaotic, mindbendingly complex ride. The music is punctuated by Leone's caterwauling operatic vocals, which are perhaps the toughest part of the album to get into, but are eventually endearing and nothing if not emotional. Take "Introduzione", an absolute beast of a cut that builds from volcanic climax to climax, as Hammonds and Moog duel it out for supremacy. Take the opening riff of "Epilogo," with its brilliant arpeggiated theme that simply bursts at the seams with intensity. The entire album is a series of mindblowing passages, with few spots of respite to be found. An indispensable Italian classic, without a doubt."
