The album starts off with fluctuating IDM and beat-infused choruses to jazz-blasted and grooving hip-hop sound sculptures, and eventually transforms into dreamlike fragments that appear to have no end and no beginning.

clocolan :: This Will End In Love (Castles In Space)
The broken pitter-patter beats and downtempo foray through wandering synths only seek to further encrust clocolan’s ability to shift us into familiar BoC dimensions.
Fail & Hendekagon :: Rust (Adventurous Music)
These scorched and often blistered sandstorms are pulled together with a soundtrack-infused sheen, as if intentionally meant to rust and permanently damage itself along the way.
Kero :: Demo Vectors (Detroit Underground)
Sandblasted electronics mixed with shattered glass and corrosive blips’n bleeps, Demo Vectors acts as Kero’s raison d’etre as each piece eclipses itself.
Kanz :: Remind Me Tomorrow (Mahorka)
These are sounds of silence—signs and signals scattered on desolate landscapes, unusually lifelike with organic substructures made audible to the human ear.
Cathode Ray Tube :: Who woke the demons that broke down the system? (Ohm Resistance)
Where bass, beats and smoldering dark ambient modular activity crunches data into pixelized cinematic warfare, CRT delivers an impacted and multifaceted 9-track explosion.
INFO :: Magnetic Fields EP (Woodwork)
With a sense of fluid composition and focus, Magnetic Fields collects electro, techno, acid, funk and rhythmic IDM strands in a tightly packed 21 minute sonic foray that doesn’t let up.
USRNM :: Mspriints (Rednetic)
A stripped down vessel of melodic techno shards are skeletal in their appearance and gain momentum with a distinctive punch along the way.
Data Morgana :: Unworldly Potential (Memoirs)
Ethereal harmonic grooves and organic production techniques seamlessly create background listening environments transporting the listener to downtempo and chilled spaces and gently skewed electronica.
ALEPH :: EGO DEATH (Renraku)
A meticulously crafted album of definitive range, scope, and color, these dozen interconnected audio impressions grab the attention of time and space, shifting and skittering about.
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.
