Big news from our audio division: LUX ETERNA RECORDS has officially launched. Why not take a minute to check out the swank new website and tell us what you think? (Thanks to the brilliant Jesse von Doom of CASH Music for his amazing work.)

2011 is gonna be a big year for LUX ETERNA. There’s a batch of releases on the calendar that run the gamut from lofty art-pop to instrumental post-rock to enveloping organic drone. And there will surely be some surprises along the way!

The ’11 roster includes:

re*me*di*a*tion
The Ten Thousand Things
SpeLL C▲s†††r
Strange Angels
The Contrarian

Much of the music from these acts — catalog and upcoming releases — can be listened to here.

In other news, we’ve merged The Contrarian Media and LUX ETERNA mailing lists, so the newsletter will now contain information from both our text-based and musical departments.

Empire-building is HAWT.
