SRiHKAL 2017: Short Releases I Have Known And Loved (Part Three)

All the EP’s, demos, and other short releases from 2017 you need to hear right now.

Around this time for the past couple of years, I’ve ran a series highlighting some of my favourite short releases that I found particularly intoxicating throughout past year. The format was loosely based on the chemical cookbooks of Alexander Shulgin (TiHKAL & PiHKAL), because in the modern age dominated by the imposition of neo-conservatism, draconian drug laws mean the only legal way to experiment with anything fresh is through music. As always, adjust your dose based on your age, weight, tolerance, and fingernail length.
