While the theme on Book of Needlecraft, and its track titles, are centered around embroidery and needlepoint, the vast electrical tapestry stitched together on this proverbial audio quilt is subtle and warm.

Ossa :: Exit Language Translator (Schematic Music Co.)
Exit Language Translator finds itself standing alone as a beacon for others to locate; its mysterious yet cleverly soft distortions and vintage soundscapes are both surreal and serendipitous.
Solypsis :: Crisis Fatigue (Chthonic Streams)
A baffling collection of ultra-wide bass, beats, and crunchy slow-motion rhythms.
Ian Boddy :: Coil (DiN)
When you dive into these analogous time capsules, the soundscapes and soundtracks seamlessly come to life, as if only a few machines were massaged to create such audible treasures.
Parallel Worlds :: Plector (DiN)
Plector sees Parallel Worlds on his third solo mission with DiN, and once again encapsulates darker atmospheres, especially as the opening title-track showcases so well.
aAirial :: In The Wind (EC Underground)
Tranquilized piano keys brush up against downtempo sonic peripherals as an organic flow transpires from start to end.
Braek :: Mutator EP (Colony Productions)
Its construction made from a Eurorack system and desktop synths, the opportunity to dive into these productions creates a dizzying array of sweet audio collages.
SLTHR :: SLTHR (Heterodox)
A calming buzz of activity, this eponymous extended player traverses a slew of low-frequency tones, drones, and subtle shifts that blend with melodic strands.
ΠΕΡΑ ΣΤΑ ΟΡΗ :: AE–O5 (Adepta Editions)
The go-to musician for old-school breaks and bass sound-sculpting, ΠΕΡΑ ΣΤΑ ΟΡΗ (from Greece, aka Pera Sta Ori,) continues to expand with next-level shenanigans.
V/A :: Afterthoughts (Kahvi Collective)
Keeping us cozy with sincere, surreal, and sublime tunes, nineteen selections shift across many genres and styles, each artist articulates their sound so effortlessly, it’s an essential listening experience.
C Mantle :: Photisms (Kaer’Uiks)
Right from the onset we can consider this album as an electronic exploration—its tangled, mangled, and clanging industrial tropes are in full swing (ref. “F.rr.t–Cer”) and sliding through crunchy sonic acrobatics.
