The extraordinary Milan-based experimental music resource Soundohm has been a great support to my work and Shame File Music for a few years now. Both of my recent collaborative releases “Steady State” (included in Soundohm’s Best of 2025 as well) and “Yarrow” are now available from their excellent online store, and so accessible at much more reasonable shipping rates for those in Europe and the UK. These are actually the last copies of “Yarrow” (sold out here in Australia). Soundohm also stock a good amount of my back catalogue and Shame File Music releases as well.

This week, Soundohm’s newsletter included an in-depth and thoughtful feature on these two releases. It’s rare someone who has obviously listened very deeply to my music writes about it, so I thought I would share the article with you here:

Clinton Green’s aluminium resonances and organic soundscapes from Australia

Having already had a stellar year, the Australian experimental imprint, Shame File Music, winds down toward the end of 2025 with two brand new astounding drops, both honing in sonic explorations of Clinton Green: “Steady State”, his third collaborative outing with UK born, Melbourne-based composer Barnaby Oliver, and the first to be pressed on vinyl, and “Yarrow”, an overwhelmingly beautiful handmade cassette edition, marking his first duo with the New Zealand born, Australian based musician and artist Allanah Stewart.

Serving as deep and prescient dive into the low rumbles of the underground scene, nestled within an already bristling context, each respectively unfurls knotted and highly distinct manifestations at the borders of minimalism and noise, producing immersive and understated soundscapes imbued with the distinct characteristics of each artist’s highly refined sound.

For decades, Australia has been a hotbed for experimental music, producing countless singular artists and trajectories of creative exploration that have shifted the sense of what is possible within the context. Initially founded during the 1990s as tiny cassette imprint, for more than 30 years the Victoria based imprint, Shame File Music, has occupied a crucial place in this story, producing more than a hundred releases dedicated to documenting both the contemporary and historical output of Australia’s thriving experimental music scene. Earlier this year, we had the privilege of exploring asome brilliant releases on the label by Ian Andrews – as Astasie-abasie – and the trio of David Brown, Tony Buck, and Magda Mayas. Now, rounding out 2025, Shame File casts the light on its own roots, delivering two killer collaborative full-lengths involving Clinton Green, the quiet hand who has run the label all these years: Steady State, the return of Green’s longstanding duo with Barnaby Oliver – issued in a highly limited vinyl edition of 100 copies – and Yarrow, a killer cassette edition – hand-labeled and housed in a hand-made pouch, with dried botanicals sewn in – comprising two sides of sonic convergences between Green and the New Zealand born, Australian based musician and artist Allanah Stewart. Each resting at incredible junctures of sound art, noise, and electroacoustic practice – further illuminating Australia’s remarkable contemporary context of sonic experimentalism, neither of these are going to sit around for long. Grab them while you can!
