Schatterau Übers Jahr Cosima Pitz Germany, 2025 Cassette (2026 edition)
Groggy tape loops lay the groundwork for this subdued set of seasonally inspired psychedelic electronics. This was released on vinyl last year, but somehow it feels right on tape. Maybe it’s the ferric grain of the music, maybe it’s the superior artwork, but on this format, everything clicked into place for me. Some of it has the feel of a late-night Euro arthouse soundtrack. Another vaporous tune features the silky, inimitable vocals of Ugnė Uma. The music casts a slow-release spell that gets under the skin.
