Experimental Electronic Music
Released in 2000, Caged is a groundbreaking collaboration between electronic music pioneers Ian Boddy and Chris Carter, blending industrial, ambient, and experimental sounds into a uniquely evocative experience. This remastered and expanded edition showcases their deft interplay of menacing drones, cinematic textures, and intricate sonic details, making it essential listening for fans of avant-garde and post-industrial music.
EP No. 2 is a febrile weave of introspective ambient and diverse electronic elements spawned in Plasma Studio Spain and IRCAM Paris sessions with vibrant forms of deep drone, glitchy percussives and glassine texture deployed in the service of sound world-making at once reflective and unsettling to deliver a resonant narrative inhabiting liminal space between contemporary sound art and immersive cinema.
What resonates is not just circuitry and signal flow, but spirit. These compositions drift between deliberate construction and serendipitous unfoldings—organized improvisation that channels the ethereal through cables and voltage.
Squarepusher’s Stereotype, originally a 1994 underground release, captures the raw beginnings of Thomas Jenkinson’s genre-defying sound—where fretless bass meets electronic chaos. Now reissued by Warp, it remains jagged, urgent, and emotionally charged, a vital document of ‘90s UK rave culture and a bold statement of artistic freedom.
Selected Remixes reflects Zach Frizzell’s collaborative ethos and transformative ear, reworking tracks from across the ambient and experimental spectrum. With his signature analog warmth, chthonic textures, and spectral drift, zakè reshapes source material into a cohesive suite of deep-listening reinterpretations that reveal his intuitive sonic alchemy.
Test Dept, pioneers of industrial music’s revolutionary spirit since the 1980s, have partnered with Canadian label Artoffact Records to release curated box sets and a new album in 2026, continuing their legacy of politically charged, boundary-pushing sound and announcing a European tour in late 2025.
From carpet tiles to call center lines to Bulgarian bee barters—an uncanny symphony of sounds, woven seamlessly into one surreal tapestry.
A new single from The Tear Garden is like a signal from beyond—dark, dreamy, and full of promise. With Astral Elevator arriving October 24th on Artoffact Records, cEvin Key and Edward Kaspel prove they haven’t lost their edge. This track’s pulsing bass, eerie synths, and vivid lyrics capture the spirit of their early work while hinting at something new—and it’s got me ready for the full trip.
Key actor and indie label in the vast panorama of modern day electronica and sound art, Mahorka started its creative adventure back in 2000-2001 with strongly aligned ideas to participate actively in advanced experimental music worldwide and from various cultural horizons.
Indeed over the course of this first for ASIP KILN fire shivering shapes and febrile forms into a timbral trade-off of hi v. lo-fi; a quiet riot of rhythm’n’sound ranging from “DrnkGrlfrnd” with its ‘aquarium-on-fire radiance’ to “Maplefunk Diptych”’s ‘garden groove of field-recorded percussion’ to the ‘sizzling whiteout’ of “Deacon Rayhand.”
A tightly curated suite of short but potent DJ tools: compact, flavorful, and rhythmically cohesive. In this second volume, Perimeter Loops Vol. II navigates an eclectic terrain—swapping between buoyant, downtempo, and propulsive loopscapes.
