Rare Frequencies: Mudboy at Middle East; the Beeline Festival wraps up
By Carly Carioli

MUDBOY: Dubious Liftings (Live in Northampton, 2009)
It's week two of an influx of Providence's most spellbinding performers gracing our ears with a show of tricked-out organs and infinite drones. MUDBOY (a/k/a Raphael Lyon) is a veteran of the legendary Fort Thunder noise-art scene. Known for his theatrical performances, Lyon combines found sounds and modified keyboards to create what's sometimes called "fantasy noise."

Rare Frequencies: The best of the spring's fringe harvest
By Susanna Bolle

Lawrence English
There’s a fine array of experimental- and electronic-music releases set to bloom this spring. Here are five choice examples:

LAWRENCE ENGLISH | A COLOUR FOR AUTUMN | 12k | This seasonal release on 12k is a bit out of sequence, but the hazy, sublime sounds of A Colour for Autumn are perfect listening any time of year. Australia’s Lawrence English, who runs the Room40 label, uses a delicate mix of field recordings, live instruments, and electronics to evoke the beautiful tension of a season that is somehow neither here nor there.
