All the stuff i mentioned is coming out on thrill jockey, at least in the US
(actually, the MoM single may be europe only release). I think the Oval is
coming out in January, but I could easily be wrong.
On a few listens, the "Twift" MoM signle sounds really excellent4 tracks,
each around 4 minutes long. The original mix of twift is great, sounds
something like bentley rhythm Ace if BRA were really able to pull off the
effect they're shooting fori.e. goofy, lotsa different sounds, some squelchy
things that almost sound like horns, a squarepusheresque fungle breakdown
midway through, and lots of ideas per square inch. Review forthcoming...
And the Oval is really quiet, ambientish on first listen, but not bad.
