Paper Television
“Khaela Maricich, now joined by YACHT's Jona Bechtolt, crafts a wickedly generous and clever record of not-quite love songs and elaborately metaphored stabs at the rituals of simple human communication.”
Poor Aim: Love Songs (Bonus Track Version)
“K reissues the first collaboration between Khaela Maricich and Jona Bechtolt (YACHT), a record originally released in 2004, and here buffered by remixes from Lucky Dragons, Strategy, and Alan Fortarte of White Rainbow, among others.”
The Blow
“It's been seven years since the Blow's Paper Televison. Jona Bechtolt is gone, and Melissa Dyne is contributing songs in addition to her duties as band installation artist-in-residence, but the duo haven't stretched too far outside the world Khaela Maricich's been creating since the beginning.”
Everyday Examples of Humans Facing Straight Into the Blow
“The latest K release from Microphones vocalist Khaela Maricich.”
Bonus Album
“Not, of course, a reference to that Johnny Depp vehicle, and for god's sake, don't even think about shoving this disc up your nose. Don't suppose, either, that The Blow-- aka Khaela Maricich, one of many female voices that have popped up on records by the Microphones-- runs in the same pastoral/naturalist vein as its parent band. No, Maricich was thinking of another connotation entirely when renam”
Brand New Abyss
“The duo of Khaela Maricich and Melissa Dyne venture into modular synthesis for the latest the Blow album. The change is not entirely positive, but it glimmers with some promising moments.”
