IDMMXXI-R flexes all manner of sound sources—broken, shattered, and retrofitted with a dense consistency.
Author: Pietro Da Sacco
Telephasycx! :: Spherical Coordinates EP (brokntoys)
The tension builds with industrial abstracts on Telephasycx!’s 4-track Spherical Coordinates EP while echoing through dystopian sandstorms.
SIMM :: Too Late To Dream (Ohm Resistance)
A subtly extreme culmination of sandblasted dub extracts and tempered downtempo slices.
Tescon Pol :: Object or Entity EP (Self Released)
Mic Finger and Ariel Johannessen (aka Tescon Pol) continue to muster abstract yet surreal electronics as Object or Entity further defines their broken rhythmic sputter to a tee.
Stephen Hummel :: Component (Self Released)
Built from a smorgasbord of components, these six tracks expand and contract to form visceral electronic mayhem with very little breathing room.
Rhonchus :: بلَووِه EP (Mahorka)
Evading genre leanings and focused on obscure sound sources, fuzzy tones and drones harken back to a time when IDM planted its roots.
Dalham :: Fünf: The Past Is a Foreign Country EP (Castles In Space)
Rhythmically flowing, these two slices of life, while a beatless foray through nostalgic soundscapes, is as blissful to the ears as any of his previous audio works.
Ghoti :: Embers EP (Woodwork)
As Embers dips and dives through techno’s outer realms, calmer layers also allow it all to fade into oblivion.
Cathode Ray Tube :: Wandering Stars EP (Condition:Human)
Cathode Ray Tube’s form of crunchy industrial glitch and blurry hypnotics continues to expand via Wandering Stars’ 4-piece suite.
Jauzas The Shining :: Substance (Specimen)
Substance is a sonic anomaly, its genres skewed just far enough to be vaguely familiar, its resultant a breakthrough balanced across nine tempered tracks.
Memory Scale :: Soft Power (Audiobulb)
Warm and fuzzy data bursts are surrounded by emotive passages floating at low elevations that we can almost touch as they fade into oblivion.
