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.
V/A :: LÜX (Cathode Muzic / Hymen)
LÜX presents a dozen sound sculptors, each with their own unique ability to deconstruct industrial pathways and visceral soundscapes. The selected artists, while at the top of their craft, dig deep into core foundations to uncover new sonic elements.
Asshole Galaxy :: Irreparable Damage (Mahorka)
A stunning visceral soundtrack and a mission statement for our world’s “leaders” to pay attention to what’s happened, is happening, and sadly repeating itself.
Anderdog :: Kelgoma (Mestnost)
What Anderdog accomplishes here is blissful electronics with a splash of braindance influence and loosened breaks to round off the proceedings.
Sole Massif, Tineidae, Access to Arasaka :: Engage EP (Chatsubo)
Dense and fractured aural fields twist apart, scorched and ripped at the seams, the trio smother what feels like hundreds of rhythms.
Printiig :: Interhymns (Point Source Electronic Arts)
Hailing from India, Shubharun Sengupta occupies the Printiig moniker and Interhymns is a ten track behemoth of electrical activity and shrapnel beats.
BASTARD :: Full Bleed EP (Renraku)
A spontaneous yet refreshing EP; foraging glitch acrobatics with a roughened textural style.
Kab Driver :: Little Smoke EP (Acroplane)
Such a baffling and fresh take on experimental electronics to push us through this decade as we look forward to a follow-up full length, hopefully.
Moon Fear Moon :: Memories That Keep EP (High Grade Media)
For fans of melancholic electronics and calm ambient meanderings, we’re expecting these memories to keep.
µ-Ziq :: Hello (Planet Mu)
Planet Mu owner Mike Paradinas (aka µ-Ziq) wraps up 2022 with his 3rd release of new material this year. Feeling more like a welcomed visit from an old friend than anything else.
