Reviews
Sacred Seeds :: Spectral Drift (Sun Sea Sky)
A series of atmospheric tracks combine synth tones within the sequences, pad melodies and other sonic devices to evoke their intended setting(s)
Drifting In Silence :: Winters Past EP (Labile)
Winters Past is a very enjoyable mainline ambient drift album featuring wintery atmospheres and notably subtle emotional compositions.
Eric Schlappi :: Raw Øblations 4: Contaminated EP (Errorgrid)
Eric Schlappi’s Raw Øblations 4: Contaminated, which lasts just over 26 minutes, provides even more glitch-electronic warfare.
Music Mondays 008 :: The long and the short of it

4PLAY :: Past Inside the Present — Awakened Souls, Tyresta, From Overseas & zakè, James Bernard & anthéne
What follows constitutes, for want of time for exhaustive description, a representative sample of some of the year’s rich late harvest…
Hollan Holmes :: Sacred Places (Spotted Peccary Music)
“Not too dense while remaining always complex and multifaceted, seemingly forever a powerful deep boom marks each cycle explosions and everlasting resistance that in the end sails away on the ocean never to return…”
QphoriQ :: Wonch like Woo (Diffuse Reality)
Wonch like Woo has speaker cones trembling from the needle drop. Employing elements of D&B, electro and even industrial, QphoniQ dowses his productions in low sub to produce a ruffled and textured effect.
Jaufenpass :: Cloud’s Eye (Shimmering Moods)
The album has a journey-like feeling, going from one place to the next, maybe as if crossing a mountain; the higher up, the less air and people, the music condenses, and towards the end, the more melodic aspects pick up again.
Dissolved :: Skysleep Interference Works (Self Released)
With Skysleep Interference Works, another kaleidoscope of musical color, the psychedelic IDM maestro returns, fusing organic soundscapes, drifting rhythms, and instrumental electronics once more.
Purelink :: Signs (Peak Oil)
Signs captures Purelink’s alchemy at its most liquid and immaterial, mapped in mutations of glitch and glass, rhythm and sound, drum and space by turns subdued and subterranean, elevated and remote.
