Over four years of operations, Dragon’s Eye has forged a name as a sound stable for artists in experimental ambient and minimal electronics. It celebrates its anniversary with a free compilation, pretext enough, if it be needed, to run through recent DE emissions. In Flowers, a traditional fourth anniversary gift, the label offers specimens of its sound garden, from the more familiar – curator Yann Novak, Wyndel Hunt, Celer – to the barely known (Shinkei, Pierre Gerard, i8u, Tomas Phillips). The uninitiated may check out the full sound-view here for starters, while others proceed to the mains.
