IXMAE is about the relationship between image and sound: i.e., how an album cover or label affects the way we hear the music.

Our contributors are a mix of graphic designers, musicians and mavens, all who's hearts are linked to that (almost!) ineffable feeling of seeing and holding music in our hands.

Apparat | Duplex

Even though this is several years old, it still seems ahead of it’s time. Duplex is an album that reeks of many long late-night/morning edits, yet still somehow contains a great amount of heart. Mostly light and detailed instrumentals, the few tracks with vocals ‘Wooden’, and ‘Contradiction’ seem to balance out the epic graciousness of the album. fans of Yasume and Isan will certainly appreciate this, if they don’t already have it!.
