Both New Era and Adamha will be welcome news to anyone who has followed Marco Repetto. To the newcomer, each 12” illustrated the Italian’s enviable ability to melt genre boundaries and reach exciting new ideas.
Reviews
V/A :: Alien Transmissions Vol 2 (Pyramid Transmissions)
Featuring ADJ, Hatch, Defunkt Dialekt, and Lectro Cod_E; this EP is right on time for those who enjoy hard-hitting dark electro. Likewise, this works well as a various artist output with all tracks staying true to the project aesthetic and seamless flow from one cut to the next.
Stefan Smith :: Thlostones (Sapiens)
What a detailed story Thlostones is; drawing from classic soundscapes and inspiration that artists like Sean Deason, B12, and The Detroit Escalator Company ignited in the early days.
tysk raider :: tysk002 (mindcolormusic / tysk)
These sound-art pieces express themselves via synthesizers and beautiful noise boxes, and yet they feel human and organic at the same time.
Silent Universe :: Immensity (Cryo Chamber)
Deep space. One of the larger shapes out there is murmuring, it is really huge. Now it becomes a choir, a choir of large shapes so many millions of miles away but right out there just above where we are now, murmuring sometimes, calling sometimes, very slow.
Inkipak :: +ve (Fourier Transform)
As we drift downstream, the bliss only continues, and makes it harder to fathom how such a coherent and beautifully flowing album can come along and feel like an old friend from the first listen.
Vcam :: Updraft (n5MD)
Dense, rhythmic arrangements and atonal synth pieces collide on Updraft culminating a radically unique listening experience; which if heard in the correct headspace, could potentially alter one’s entire perception of reality.
Cyd :: Haute Couture (Subsist & Faith Disciplines)
Cyd encompasses a wide-ranging musical style that ebbs and flows into abstract and delicate forms to more abrupt bass-infused IDM morsels.
