2019

Albums

• Aindulmedir - The Lunar Lexicon

  Relax and burn the ashes of the old ones. This is the soundtrack. Works well with wine.

• Absolution - Ashenbringer

  My agalloch-like album of the year. So good.

• Chelsea Wolfe - Birth of Violence

  Follows the Red Goddess.

• Lena Raine - Oneknowing

  One of my most played albums in 2019. Love it. Played it a lot over the morning brewing coffee.

• Lost in Kiev - Persona

  My post-rock / space-rock album of the year.

• Idle Hands - Mana

  Oldschool goth Sisters-of-Mercy like album. Lovely.

• Ison - Inner-space

  Spacey Theatre of Tragedy. Almost my album of the year.

• White Ward - Love Exchange Failure (Album of the year)

  Dat sax. Please.

Books

• Coders: The Making of a New Tribe and the Remaking of the World, Clive Thompson

  Best book about coders (not code) I ever read.

• How to do Nothing, Jenny Odell

  So close to my heart

• Out, Natsuo Kirina

  <3 Natsuo Kirina.

• The Plotter, Un-su Kim

  Murakami meets Old Boy. Very good.
