Everything about this zero-sum EP radiates talent, from the grooves, to the effortlessness of the transitions, to the bangers, it’s really impressive.

Ocoeur :: Breath (n5MD)
Breath shines both as an ambient record and as a blend of both ambient and classical, not solely because of the instrumentation utilized, but also because of these really big powerful climaxes that make up for the record’s most engaging moments.
Konerytmi :: 13 EP (Snork Enterprises)
13 is a fun experience. There’s a lot of danceable moments—but also a lot of more intricate explorations of techno, industrial, and electro with only six tracks to offer. The record manages to find a great balance between these genres, leaving you with some really memorable and catchy tunes, while also punching hard when it wants to.
Keith Seatman :: A Skip and a Song to See Us Along (K.S.Audio)
There’s a feel of controlled randomness in this LP, and it helps maintain its erratic feel overall, as music like this sounds so quirky to […]
Jo Johnson :: Let Go Your Fear (Castles In Space)
The merge between synthesizers and the ethereal new age do make up for an interesting combination, one that always remains comfortable throughout the album; when they’re there, the arpeggiated synths give an interesting edge to the compositions, making them a bit more corpulent.
Minimum Sentence :: Russia EP (Burial Recordings)
All in all, the four tracks on the Russia EP certainly leave a positive impression. The noise is satisfying, and the way the pieces constantly move around makes them really engaging.
Belong :: Realistic IX (Kranky)
Belong’s return with Realistix IX is quite a success. They improve significantly on where they had left off and also make use of their noisy aesthetics, combining the two into a satisfying sonic collection.
Pollaar :: Sentiment Series Vol.12 (Shaw Cuts)
Sentiment Series Vol.12 is an entertaining little EP showcasing some pretty strong techno tunes. The major point of strength of this release lays in the fact that each tune offers its own approach.
Rhombus Index + f5point6 :: Mutual Expression (See Blue Audio)
There really isn’t a slow or uninteresting moment on the LP, because there’s always a surprise hidden somewhere. Said surprises don’t come in the form of meticulous details, rather just with how good f5point6 and Rhombus Index are at subverting expectations.
Rontronik :: Zero Eight (Tygr Rawwk Rcrds)
Zero Eight pulls off a rather satisfying mix of noise, ambient, and experimental electronica. The way the record is constantly shifting into new ideas makes it really engaging from front to back, but so does its claustrophobic atmosphere.
Inquiri :: See You Someday (Past Inside The Present)
You can hear a lot of pure ambience on See You Someday, however, most of the time it is infused with ambient pop aesthetics, some big string arrangements, and straight up psychedelia.
