Efficient Space out of Naarm, Australia, have made a name for themselves as one of the world’s best reissue labels with classic compilations like Sky Girl, Oz Waves and Oz Echoes under their belt. Earlier this year they reissued a much more recent body of work: YL Hooi’s Untitled album for Altered States. Not unlike label mate Steve Hiett, Hooi’s work sound like radio waves from a shore distant in both time and place. Tracks like “Stranger” also makes me think of fellow Australian artist Carla dal Forno.
