"Ben Frost follows the wonderful A U R O R A album with V A R I A N T, an EP of remixes from some true visionaries. Evian Christ turns in his own brand of devilish trap, twisting 'Venter' into a metallic nightmare jam. Dutch E Germ, aka former Gang Gang Dance drummer Tim DeWit, fashions a sea of noise and shifting sound patterns from the track, while with the moody delights of HTRK take it into somber late-night mode. The B-side is taken up of two different tracks, the first a remix of 'No Sorrowing' from Kangding Ray, whose take is a gurgling body of body techno. 'Nolan' gets a Self Medicating Edit from Regis, a deep and lustrous vision of ice and storm. "
- "Pondering such truths and mysteries of the universe as the joy of dancing crustaceans, the absurdity of love, and the humor in cannibalism, “Ostrich Von Nipple Contemplates the Cosmos” is a sonic journey navigating tribal incantations, chicken taco obsessions, and roach-drawn carriages.

"The Russian/Ukrainian doom outfit Kauan's sixth album - "Muistumia." The album's title means "reminiscences" and is a professionally re-recorded collection of the band's best material from their early years, plus the opening track "Unsoi," which is a newly composed song."

It's actually not bad. I probably won't listen to it again, but it's enjoyable (for the most part).
