AK-One :: Nothing Grows in a Straight Line (Common Ancestors)
A two-part voyage into the sublime is achieved through a fusion of styles, expansive ambient sound sources, drifting synths, and gentle guitar tones.
Constant Current :: Inside EP (People Can Listen / Ezhevika)
Constant Current unveils this five-track extended player with fast-moving acoustic acrobatics mixed with ambient streams of subconsciousness and timid melodies immersed in electrically charged layers.
Hooligan :: No Sight EP (Renraku)
A clever three-piece suite of braindance and slow-motion breakcore layered funk.
The Dubnihilist :: Friday 22:05 EP (Dystopian Dub Discotheque)

Soul Data Transfer :: Soul Data Transfer EP (EC Underground)
The four tracks on Soul Data Transfer’s eponymous debut EP for ECU are delicately woven, abstract ambient-glitch morsels that flow and transcend space and time.
Felipe Vaz :: Architecture and Distraction (Evel)
Fast beats and non-rhythms flicker and fracture, revealing what appears to be the unpolished insides of the tools employed during the creative process.
Ars Dada :: Between Poetry and Catastrophe (Concrete Collage)
A surprising and uncompromising project with intricate arrangements, nuance, and grandeur.
Flathan :: Archive (Aduaine)

V/A :: BLE-EP3 (Yellow Machines)
With this highly anticipated EP, Yellow Machines raises the bar; locking down some of the best producers in the experimental electronic field and easily becomes a contender for best EP of 2024.
Poppy H :: Confidence Of Crisis EP (Cruel Nature)
Poppy H creates dubby, almost aquatic sound structures that are characterized by a downtempo lo-fi feel and whirling electrical debris fields.
