Like Blade Runner directed by Ridley Scott, bvdub’s Leaving alludes to the end of a person’s life. The music uses a dark-ambient approach to bring the listener to this point in the present.
Reviews
Il Quadro di Troisi :: Remixes (Raster)
The album sounds like an enlargement of the sounds and spaces of their first album, an exploration shared by artists and friends who gravitate around this […]
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.
Malarki :: Asunder (Errorgrid)
Malarki’s full length album for Errorgrid titled Asunder is full of bursting and brittle electrical fields, delivering an impacting sonic punch of soundtrack behemoths and shuffling industrial textures.
Myoptik :: Gofunga! (Mighty Force)
With a plethora of electronic distortion and semi-coherent sound structures carefully collapsing, Myoptik doesn’t hold back on Gofunga!
Everything Changes :: Sometimes EP (Onset Audio)
Core grooves are packed with frenetic jungle and flickering beats, yet they maintain a fierce energy that cascades with roughened edges.
SineRider :: Perennial (Sound In Silence)
Sometimes, leaning heavily on the synthesizers, more on the piano, sometimes melodies shimmer around the corner, just as they can be entirely abstract. All of this is done with one objective, and one that he reaches: to play some excellent fine mood music.
Benoît Pioulard & Offthesky :: Sunder (laaps)
Eight interlocking tracks of floating atmospheres and blends of colorful clouds, recorded at La Berceuse (Brooklyn, NY) and Offthesky studio, Denver CO in 2022-23 with […]
David Newlyn :: Encouraged To Lose (Sound In Silence)
Each of these five pieces shows a melodic drift, slow, hazy and shimmering in the background. It’s like an organ melody set against the blurry tones of whatever else is happening, which can’t be easily heard.
Akuratyde :: Head First (Modern Conveniences)
A harmonious assemblage of emotional, calming, and effortlessly absorbing magnetic rhythms creating a symbiotic effect. Bass, breaks, and blissful beats to lull us into spring.
