V/A :: Interstellar Communications Vol 2.1 (Pyramid Transmissions)
Ultimately an upper level smorgasbord of audible electrons that doesn’t let up even for a moment, Pyramid Transmissions have curated another top release that contains just enough energy to thrust us into Interstellar space without looking back. IC2.1 is the quintessential catalog of electro and highlights the best in the scene.
Steve Hadfield :: Industrial Chillout Complex (Werra Foxma)
A swirling smorgasbord of blissful blips and bleeps, tiny mechanical gears rotate and crunch their way through, often leaving the listener to submerge themselves in these mysterious aural fluctuations.
4T Thieves :: Fame is an Addiction EP (Mahorka)
Taking us to a simpler time, a place where comfort and familiarity reside—the nostalgia of distant memories, sounds, and feelings keep our minds tuned as 4T Thieves continues to extract swirling synthesizer strains.
V/A :: Communication Themes Vol. 10 (Renraku)
Renraku continue to evolve as their revolving Communication Themes compilation series expands and contracts with creative and exploratory electronics.
Aeon Cub :: Vacant King (Kaer’Uiks)
The sometimes frenetic breaks and beats avalanche are counterbalanced by punctuated low-flying rhythms, taking us to those brittle and precision IDM releases of yesteryear (ref. Brothomstates, Karsten Pflum, Proem, Xela, Gimmik et al).
Nike_Vomita :: MOA087 EP (Móatún 7)
A three piece suite released on a limited (and now sold out) 7″—Nike_Vomita emerges with just over 10 minutes of primed acid technoid extracts that bend, twist, and shift through ambient underpinnings.
The Fire Video :: 海空時間電子宇宙 (Self Released)
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.
