Van Halo
Christchurch duplexicon of many free-time associations and witchuals observed. Burns holes in woven dependencies, free for all. All for none. Rugcore dialectics weave from library returns to nightwalker revelations. A tableau of auxiliary gains accumulating rust, hoarded from excoriated vocals, primordial percussives, jammed tapes, and room tone returns.

Teen Haters
A new collaboration between Mela and Peter Wright, Teen Haters fuses the mournful swell of decaying cello with the burp and whine of unearthed electronic flurries, trailing arcs of disrhythmia like a blackout dose of narcotics, to irreversibly tarnish the city that shines.

Plus sonic segues of psych noise and perplexing pop from Stanier Black-Five.
