Inkipak :: Inkipak (Mighty Force)
Very intelligent IDM, with lush synths underpinned by the warmest of basslines that allows the music to develop with ease and perfection.
Perla vs. Futuregrapher :: MOA097 EP (Móatún 7)
This release is a beautiful piece of IDM, spacious, epic and simply a joy to listen to. It’s a very rich piece that deserves multiple listens.
Owen Vince :: Old Sympathy (Slow Dance)
There’s some excellent electronic work throughout—real deep and crunchy sounds sit comfortably against the broken-up ambient backdrops.
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 […]
Zoon van snooK :: Se•pa•ra•ción (Lo Recordings)
Although this album is vastly different from the meandering, playful electronics his fans might be used to, there are similarities if you listen closely. Each piece is more like a musical postcard, rather than a complete piece of music.
Part Timer :: Reaching Ends (Analogue Chat)
The tracks are brief but they’re also snapshots of sheer elegance and as such, their length is therefore arguably perfect from a qualitative perspective as they make you want to listen again and again.
V/A :: Tone Science Module No.5 Integers and Quotients (DiN)
Electronic music lost some of its soul when artists began to put themselves front and centre ahead of the music. DiN lets the music speak for itself and what a wonderful ‘language’ it is to listen to.
