WC00160 & Abono :: Untitled EP (ALLISANDNOT)
Deep machine music with just the right balance of bite and bloom. Styles coming together, forming, shaping and gelling into a wonderfully familiar difference. A […]
Meat Beat Manifesto :: Kasm02 EP (Skam)

Tracing Structures is Terminal 11’s most complete work, it simply depends if you’re bothered enough to scratch beyond his madcap surface and dive in. There […]
Fjordne :: Moonlit Invocations (White Paddy Mountain)
Moonlit Invocations is modernist art, a Cubist canvas on a cocktail napkin. Fjordne (Fujimoto Shunichiro, also known as “FjS”) first came to my attention with […]
