Not Marshall – UNKNOWN PRODIGY

Pretty sure I write a variation on this every time I post a Not Marshall track, but it is staggering they don’t get more attention. At time of write they have one (!) follower on Soundcloud and get 56 monthly listeners on Spotify. And I don’t think they even have a Bandcamp account. A ludicrous state of affairs. Their latest LP ELLIX is another masterclass in icy ambient and drone, even swerving into more trancey textures a la 36 and Lee Gamble. Should be massive, never will be 😦

Not Marshall – Fragments of Varnished Visions

Finding albums like Not Marshall’s Fragments of Varnished Visions makes me a bit happy and a bit sad: happy, as I feel like I’ve stumbled on something brilliant that hasn’t already had its praises highly sung; sad as this is flying so hard under the radar that it’s difficult to imagine any more than a small handful of people will ever get the chance to enjoy its magnificence. I literally can’t find anything about it online except its listing on AOTY, not even a Bandcamp page. It’s not often ambient is explicitly joyful, but that’s certainly the case with About The Desert, and the rest of this deeply buried gem is equally lovely.
