Who knows, maybe the set from “4 Page Letter” is still there—the echoes left behind now faded beyond recognition:
Miyuki | Things We Left Behind
Miyuki | Syberia
Miyuki is a girl from Siberia named Lera. She has an appropriately titled EP at bandcamp.

Strange how they came upon The Mountains Themselves. First there was Daniel Klag, imagining the mountains themselves in static conversation. Then there was Nathaniel, just back from Alaska having spent much of his time admiring none other than the mountains themselves. Mix and motion, initially cued up by circumstance, now curiously applied to each other. Nathaniel would work Daniel’s 30 minutes of mist into three photos of his own from the trip, forming a piece that’s best left to your own interpretation—which we recommend arriving at with patience and undivided focus. Tracklist below:
00:00 Daniel Klag – Infinite Arc
06:08 Flying Saucer Attack – Since When (FOUR)
08:55 Fennesz – Shift
12:38 Growing – Southern Rites
17:40 Tim Hecker – Whitecaps of White Noise II
23:00 Alan Licht & Aki Onda – Tiptoe
When the sun goes down, she comes around:
For about a year now, something’s been pulling Toronto’s Great Marble towards pop. They first appeared as a swirl of particles, before getting boxed up and saturated in beige. And now the sand has hissed into their amps too, packed underneath the fretboards of their guitars…this a band, this is Lou Reed and his lover stranded in the desert.
What You Need becomes a 7″ in late September. Hear side B at bandcamp.
‘The Life and Strange Surprizing Adventures of Robinson Crusoe, of York, Mariner: Who lived Eight and Twenty Years, all alone in an un‐inhabited Island on the Coast of America, near the Mouth of the Great River of Oroonoque; Having been cast on Shore by Shipwreck, wherein all the Men perished but himself. With An Account how he was at last as strangely deliver’d by Pirates.’
This was the complete title on the first edition of Robinson Crusoe, a story which needs little introduction now; resting in the highest rank of folklore where details vary and blur but basic identity remains universal. The newly found “Lost Soundtrack” by Russia’s X.Y.R (Xram Yedinennogo Razmuwlenuja) makes good use of that familiar sense, narrating solely through synthesizer, able to paint vivid scenes without much more than a track-title’s reference point.
