Monolyth & Cobalt :: Sub + Rosa (Unknown Tone)
Monolyth & Cobalt invites you over the threshold and guides you by the hand through a suite of many chambers, each with one, curving wall, rendered […]
6.9Hz :: Broken State (Daddy Tank)
Not entirely untraveled, Broken State gravitates towards the dark and gritty erratic beat, but also manages to evoke emotional sparks along the way. Moods shift on […]

V/A :: The Echoing Black (Kalpamantra)
A recommended malicious industrial, noisy and cinematic ambient album and a quite effective post-apocalyptical soundtrack for your dark reflective moments. Kalpamantra is an active net-label […]
