Each piece contains enough content and creative fuel to keep our attention zoned in while shards of electro, breaks, and technoid forms are exposed with jazzier outer layers.
Reviews
Fxbip :: Choke / Ame Polaire (Concrete Collage)
Fxbip shatters preconceived notions of nonsensical experimentation and instead focuses on unique (even if a bit turbulent) concrete sound collages that bend, flex, and splinter with a punctuated sheen.
Virtually J :: Autocracy Mage (Mahorka)
These are fine-tuned, danceable and energetic tracks for the dance floor, floor-standing speakers or headphone commutes in the dead of night.
Seigo Aoyama :: On The Drift (Audiobulb)
Darker strands mix with lightened pitter-patter tones that simply fade away. These unusually magnetic sonic traverses detail organic, nostalgic, and atmospheric forays that should be absorbed as a whole to even begin to capture its aural glow.
LL321 :: Ballistics EP (Roulette Rekordz)
There are beautiful lines of haunting otherworldly melodies woven throughout some of the rhythmic fortresses, making this a very re-listenable release with a variety of moods and vibes.
ΠΕΡΑ ΣΤΑ ΟΡΗ :: IMMI EP (MUSAR)
On IMMI, the ominous mood is offset by ricocheting beatwork and breakbeat impulses that never outstay their welcome.
Rudy Adrian :: As Dusk Becomes Night (Spotted Peccary)
Each piece an ebb and flow connected by atmospheric notes, drones, and extended waves. Creating a dreamlike soundscape—a place to drift away to—Rudy Adrian carves a serene landscape of dust, debris and delicate structure.
Driftmachine :: Spume & Recollection (Umor Rex)
Celebrating Umor Rex’s 15th anniversary, Spume & Recollection is an encapsulating 40 minutes—tranquilizing the senses with emphasis on pulsing lo-fi drums and subtle bass elements throughout.
Marihiko Hara & Polar M :: Music For Home Vol. 1: Our Season EP (mü-nest)
A well rounded, well produced and very subtle melodic interval, drifting from quiet scenes of snow falling minimal synthetic leads to some of my favourite lo-fi, imperfect sound effects and noise ridden atmospheres.
V/A :: Cold Readings (brokntoys)
A severally contagious EP that skips back and forth between rugged electronics and downtempo industrial extracts.
mōshonsensu :: Solemn Grandeur EP (Abstrakt Reflections)
If mōshonsensu wanted to capture that certain IDM soundscape from yesteryear, he certainly hits the target with Solemn Grandeur.
