A distinctive body of heart-moving emotional soundscaping textures, crushing noisy drones of cathartic beauty, shrouded by a tremendous cinematic aura.
Month: June 2021
K-Chaos :: Traces EP (Onset Audio)
All manner of scorched dark beats and bass are ravaged on Traces and what lies just beneath the drum onslaught is a thin droning soundscape that is both eerie and brooding.
Paratoma :: One x 3 EP (Self Released)
As the artist accurately describes, these are analog accidents that rinse, repeat, and reflect—stitched together like an aural set of strands. Both organic and orchestrated with a lively feel, One x 3 is a welcomed if not ghostly three-piece suite with nuanced exploratory sounds.
Jason van Wyk :: Threads (n5MD) — “Partial Dawn” track premiere
Each track is intelligently arranged and flow seamlessly throughout this very thoughtful and engaging album. The overall ambience is hauntingly beautiful and the melodies shine […]
Derek Piotr :: Making and Then Unmaking (Bit-Phalanx / DPSR)
Making and Then Unmaking concerns itself with these rough edges by understanding the confessional quality of folk, whose confessions need not be aesthetically fitting to […]
Proswell :: 生津波 (Self Released)
The layers of harmonic counterpoint, production polish, and textural depth take on additional meaning. 生津波 provided a creative outlet and target of focus for Misra during the writing process. Fortuitously, the finished product can provide the same benefits for us as listeners.
Michael Valentine West :: p23-6 (Kaer’Uiks)
With Michael Valentine West as our trail leader, these fragmented and fragile ambient/dreamlike sounds offer us the clarity and focus needed to energize and push us forward.
C Mantle :: The Trials of Herta Kosinsky EP (Gabber Noir)
A blisteringly wild ride through turbulent electronic mayhem that is saturated with deformed electro strands.
Vertical67 :: Through The Fog (Pulse Drift)
Through the Fog is an apt title for this 12”. From the acid mists of the opener, Vertical67 leads the listener across six tracks with a sturdy beat acting as a guardrail. As you come out the other end, the mellow warmth of “Tykat” bids farewell to an EP that is as club ready as it is reflective.
Mause :: XOR EP (NPM)
Mause brings his trademark modernized, obsessively detailed, and meticulously produced acid techno.
Scorn :: The Only Place (Ohm Resistance)
As drifting dandelion seeds float in the ether, the only place where one can find a cacophony of fractured drones, shimmering echoes, and sandblasted bass is right here in this wide open space that Scorn carves out for us.
