Paco Alvarez - It's time to go home



Paco Alvarez draws an acoustic painting free of objects but full of space for the listener's own thoughts and interpretation when left alone at home with Domestic Landscapes.
You may travel with slow motion or dubbish drive to be right on time. Arriving at different places where ambience, microtonality and soft fieldrecordings wait for contemplation.
Walk those sonic ranges, swim in these melodic seas and fly on top the droning mountains you shall explore in Domestic Landscapes.
Paco Alvarez's debut album on rec72 is a continuous monument of sophisticated downtempo electronica.

rec72 is a netlabel focusing on electronic music and visuals to be spread on the internet and being downloadable for free. We deliver Electronica (IDM, Breaks and Downtempo) and Visuals since 2007!
rec72′s artists love to share their music and video clips under Creative Commons (by-nc-nd, by-nc-sa or by-sa). Which means you can download all music and visuals for free.

Specta Ciera - She Bought It

"We hope to imbue a mindset of thinking of music in a new way. This is something we think we’ve done in the past, but we’d like to specifically focus on an embracing of real open mindedness, altruism, acceptance of the unknown, readiness to learn and assimilate, and to be filled by the unfathomable openness of the frontier and in doing so becoming a transient in a new found home (able to come and go at will)." - Luxus-Arctica records International

Release date - December 12th 2011
Label: Section 27
Preview: http://soundcloud.com/theaudiologist/sets/idios-kosmos

theAudiologist crafts the most tranquil and surrendering of sounds, these opining overtures tingle and twinkle with all the suspended charm and beauty of frosted ice sculptures, both dainty and delicate - alluring and arresting their sepia trimmed treatments tremble as though melancholic mirages of fragmented memories rippling through the ether, sweetly bitter in design and sensitive and spectral in texture... these twilight treats are best viewed in the stillness afforded by a nocturnal setting that way they are able to unfurl their shyly reclined persona.

Alkalinear Recordings is an Irish netlabel that was founded in 2009 by Simon Matthews aka Ventolyn&Becotyde. The label is currently run by S.Matthews and Jimmy Penguin.
We primarily release digital downloads for free, and recently launched our vinyl catalogue. For more info, downloads and more please visit our site:
