Darren Harper and Ümlaut create one long dreamy track and eleven short fragmented listening experiences.

Dark Sky Alliance :: Interdwell (Spotted Peccary Music)
This album is thought to be organized in chapters, and each chapter best represents an evolving sound poem or improvisational mnemonic device, based on an evolving intergalactic culture. Now step through the portal and leave everything behind, enter Interdwell time.
Fallen :: Midnight Poems for Lost Seasons and Cripple Hearts (Móatún 7)
I think this is very good sounding ambient atmospheric pop, employing bass with keys, guitar, a touch of percussion sometimes and always within a framework of wonderful spacey electronics with some etheric vocals too.
Bios Contrast & Nilotpal Das :: Black Box Revenant EP (Self Released)
A revenant returns as a spirit after death, and art can be an experiment in new forms, one might not like it all. For me, “Burn I” and “Burn II” were tough, but then “Dome 2080” is Extraordinarily Awesome! Yes, very good.
Marewrew :: Ukouk. Round Singing Voices of the Ainu 2012-2024 (Pingipung)
The spiritual joy that the human voice, in whatever language this is, is very attractive. This is a mystical sound, I think it works really well in a mix of tracks, to shift context and take our constantly listening ears into a whole new direction using just the human voice.
T.R. Jordan :: Dwell Time II (Past Inside the Present)
There are many things hidden in these low dwelling clouds, complex tiny voices and bits of music with overlays of curved drone-like sustained tones that are overall positive and uplifting.
Humanfobia :: RINGU リング (2024) (Let’s Talk Figures)
Humanfobia has brought a path of death and destruction across the planet. This latest offering is a master work of horror and anguish that surely few can survive. The sound is not complicated, bass and keys with strange tones, groaning guttural unearthly sounds and sexy whispers from a ghost who follows me into my dreams.
Hochzeitskapelle :: We Dance EP (Alien Transistor)
The instruments are not electronic and have a reasonable calming feeling, nothing frantic or challenging, inviting the listener to just relax and enjoy this part of the afternoon.
Requator :: KosMo (Sun Sea Sky)
Combining forces on a laptop and hardware synth studio, Requator makes the good times flow endlessly.
Micah Pick :: Frameworks (Audiobulb)
These themes explore the surprise at finding unexpected joy even at our darkest moments when our worst fears are realized and facing the unique stresses of adulthood by retaining a sense of childlike joy.
emho :: Deambulations (Sonic Dialogue)
Suggesting an exploration of the interplay between geographic spaces and sound, the feeling is of wandering, both in physical and metaphysical senses. The atmosphere fully uses the glitchy modality, like the sound of an old movie, heard underwater, at night.
