A boutique record label focused on noisy, inventive, beautiful music. We also review relevant releases.

New series alert: we’re going to start showcasing our collection of rare, and beautiful CDs, including many we’ve collected from house shows, basements, and long-lost bands that played three shows and disappeared before creating a MySpace profile.
Steel drums. Sitar. Fuzz bass. Glockenspiel. Dissonance. People acting real weird. Weird Christmas music is the best kind of Christmas music, and if you disagree, you’re getting coal in your stocking. We’ve collected all the weirdest stuff we could find in our EXPERIMENTAL CHRISTMAS playlist.

SHINY LITTLE CIRCLES No. 9: Volcano Kings - “11 Ways to Avoid Death in Trash Can City”

The undisputed kings of instrumental noir rock. Their drummer used to bring a full-sized oil drum to all their shows. Now that’s commitment.

Babe, it’s 2025. If your record doesn’t include a land acknowledgment, I won’t listen to it.

SHINY LITTLE CIRCLES No. 8: Wye Oak - “Shriek”

This criminally-underrated indie gem from 2014 is packed with warm synths, lush vocal melodies, inventive grooves, and perhaps the best bass guitar sound ever achieved on a pop record.

For the past six weeks, an AI Facebook account has been pulling my history posts on Instagram and slopping out new captions, so I’ve been feeding it poison pills and its followers are having meltdowns in the comments. It’s been pretty spectacular.

Hot take: any publication that posts a “best of” list before January 1st is deeply unserious and hasn’t done their due diligence.

SHINY LITTLE CIRCLES No. 7: Dave Holland Sextet - “Pass It On”

Holland is an accomplished and innovative bandleader/composer, pushing a contemporary form of post-bop drawing from free jazz and the avant garde. This CD bears his signature, acquired at Boston’s Regattabar

SHINY LITTLE CIRCLES No. 6: Manu Katché - “Neighborhood”

A staple of ECM’s modern European jazz catalog. Dark, slick, melodic, spacious, and groovy driven by Katché’s inventive cymbal work.

SHINY LITTLE CIRCLES No. 5: Happy Apple - “Happy Apple Back On Top”

Playful and palatable free jazz driven by The Bad Plus’s Dave King on drums. Less dissonant and more hypnotic than you might expect.

SHINY LITTLE CIRCLES No. 4: Owls - “Two”

The “new” Owls record from 2014. These guys are weapons-grade off kilter, taking normal components of Midwest emo and combining them in bizarre, infuriating, and ultimately beautiful ways.

SHINY LITTLE CIRCLES No. 3: Slint - “Spiderland”

SHINY LITTLE CIRCLES No. 1: Hop Along - “Get Disowned”

Our first post in the series is a staggeringly beautiful package from Hop Along. “Get Disowned” is a sinewy and jagged album powered by Frances Quinlan’s ragged, electric, unmistakable voice.

SHINY LITTLE CIRCLES No. 2: Many People Walking - “Cups and Bites”

These guys played a lot of living rooms and basements in western Massachusetts around 2008. Fun as hell math punk. They did have a MySpace page at one point, but these CD-Rs might be the last remaining artifact.
