    Cole Pulice’s Land’s End Eternal arrives as a lush exploration of space—not the galactic kind, but a musical one, somewhere between ambient jazz and experimental. The Oakland-based saxophonist, known for creating immersive atmospheres, invites listeners into a world brimming with delicate vibrations and a serene yet unfamiliar kind of beauty.

    In Observation of Transcendence, San Francisco-based ambient artist Celestial Trails crafts an aural ecosystem intricately shaped by the bewildering interplay between natural textures and synthesized serenity. As the work of ambient composer Taner Torun, Celestial Trails guides listeners gently through expansive auditory spaces. As such, this album resonates like a living canvas—a lush, immersive sojourn born from the tranquility of the Pacific Ocean’s expanse.

    Many newsrooms realize that, when they cover immigrant communities—especially where some people may be undocumented or have precarious legal status—the information they collect can put those sources at serious risk. Beyond using aliases and obtaining informed consent, however, there are deeper layers of complexity that public media newsrooms must consider. Last OIGO, I offered many tips on protecting sources and protecting your newsroom. It came at a good time. The post generated questions as well.

    William Tyler‘s Time Indefinite is drawn inexorably to musical exploration at its magnetic core. Those familiar with Tyler’s collaborations with the multihyphenate collective Lambchop or his evocative explorations with a range of performers, including Four Tet, will find this latest album a deepening of his ongoing push beyond boundaries rather than a comfortable retreat into the guitar-centric idylls he’s been known for.

    If 2010 is in any way a musically formative year for you, you no doubt remember Treats, the debut album by Sleigh Bells, fondly. The New York duo were a precursor to hyperpop and breathed rambunctious life into mainstream sounds during this period. And though follow-ups like Reign of Terror and Bitter Rivals didn’t quite reach the heights or cultural currency of their debut, Sleigh Bells amply demonstrated a commitment to blending contradictions.

Leadership isn’t just about big ideas—it’s about how you show up. Be an exemplar: calm, courageous, authentically passionate. Embody the principles you preach and your team will mirror that energy. And don’t forget the mentor role: listen, elevate others, give credit freely.
