With a title pointing to a critique of a culture that commodifies fashion, packages identity as an aesthetic, and reduces meaningful social movements to marketable trends—MVW steers clear and continues to punctuate his own sonic language.

The Mellowtrons :: DUB da Beat EP (Self Released)
With DUB da Beat, a self-released four-track EP available through Bandcamp, Walker returns to a sound that feels both deeply rooted in his history and wonderfully untouched by time. Massive basslines rumble beneath a haze of dubwise echoes, warped acid squelches, and fractured rhythms, creating a woozy, late-night atmosphere that rewards sinking into rather than simply listening to.
Dead Edit :: Signal Loss (Self Released)
Jordan Schmelzer’s debut as Dead Edit, Signal Loss, plunges deep into the industrial undercurrents of IDM, where fractured rhythms, mechanical weight, and ambient collage converge in a dense assemblage of broken beats and digital decay.
Neutrino Effect :: They Shall Bring Death Upon Us (Labile)
Guitar serves as a central thread throughout They Shall Bring Death Upon Us, reinforcing its industrial-rock foundation without overshadowing the electronics. Instead, it cuts through the mix as a defining presence, driven by distortion, rhythmic decay, and patterns that accumulate weight as they unfold.
Bluhm :: Signals in the Static (handstitched*)
Signals in the Static unfolds like a woven sonic blanket, warm and enveloping, as celestial voices drift, synths sway, and surreal blooms of ambient flutter shift and reshape across twelve pieces that feel more like soundtracks to life than a collection of tracks simply packaged together.
Cognition Delay :: Less Invasive (Neo Ouija)
There’s an understated optimism running through Less Invasive, placing Cognition Delay comfortably alongside the more atmospheric work of artists such as Secede, Arovane, Biosphere, and Rod Modell. Yet rather than imitate those sounds, Alexander and Rice create something more patient: music that works best when allowed to sit quietly in the room, gradually revealing its details while everything else falls away.
Fortresses :: Here EP (ROHS!)
Together, the two tracks form a small refuge built from sound: sparse voices, lingering tones, and an unhurried sense of calm. Fortresses finds its strength in restraint, creating music that asks little of the listener beyond simply staying awhile, drifting, and letting go.
Ignatius :: Noxi Melank (Evel)
Rather than resolving its strange machinery, Noxi Melank leaves it in motion—a collection of damaged systems, unstable rhythms, and modular forms continually finding new ways to become something else.
Serge Geyzel :: So I Leave EP (Adepta Editions)
Serge Geyzel’s So I Leave delivers a hard-hitting mix of dark breaks, deep bass, glitch, acid, and experimental energy across three tightly focused tracks.
Marco Simioni :: wave_function (Evel)
wave_function ultimately displays an artist working in top form, mapping out a series of experimental electronic terrains that converge into something uniformly disjointed, immersive, and quietly mind-bending.
stanleycypress :: Ephemeral EP (Self Released)
Los Angeles-based ambient explorer stanleycypress finds comfort in smaller spaces with Ephemeral, a two-track slice of life where atmospheric modulations weave through melodic drone tones and cascading Detroit-inflected textures.
