    Episode 078: Saccharine Excess

    Welcome back to Norelco Mori, an hour of underground and experimental music on the web. Nine tracks this time around, with recent work from Lea Bertucci, Mix Ref and Zeynep Toraman. Here's the list: Lea Bertucci — The Oracle (Cibachrome Editions · 2025) Mix Ref — elevens (self-released · 2026) Zeynep Toraman — Afterimages (self-released · 2025) Akhira Sano — To Material Past (SWIMS · 2025) Aleksi Perälä — GRACE 10 (AP Musik · 2025) Dobrawa Czocher — State Of Matter (130701 · 2026) Kiera Mulhern — De ossibus 20 (Recital · 2020) Kassel Jaeger — Fernweh (Black Truffle · 2025) Solitary Dancer — SDIII (Private Possessions · 2026) A couple threads running through this one: four of the nine releases come from artist-run labels — Bertucci's own Cibachrome Editions, Perälä's AP Musik, Solitary Dancer's Private Possessions, plus Mix Ref self-releasing outright. There's also a recurring theme of place and displacement — Sano's neighborhood night walks, Czocher's move from Warsaw to the Baltic coast, Kassel Jaeger's Fernweh (literally "far-sickness"). If you'd like to hear your music or your label's music on future episodes, please get in touch. Appropriate submissions are welcome in all formats including hi-res FLAC / WAV.
