The Exaltics / Gosub :: The Exaltics Meets Gosub (Solar One Music)
The Exaltics serve up two warming Electro tracks, toeing the line between detached and inviting. Gosub tears down any welcoming aspects, instead establishing an uneasy twosome of […]
Artifact :: Archaic Line (Deadplate)
More good—forward looking bass heavy music from Bristol and London, a collaboration which seems to be all the rage at the moment. Artifact delivers this mutant […]
Tape :: Revelationes (Hapna)

Pascal Savy :: Fragments (Hibernate)
The air crackles and as the end approaches, so do footsteps, crunching the surface of the snow—another ruddy-cheeked traveler coming to warm himself inside. Pascal […]
Kowton vs Dusk :: Kowton v Dusk EP (Keysound)

Not entirely drenched in diluted noise, each of the six pieces are meticulously threaded with dozens of textured sounds—often crumpling and overlapping each other until […]

Charlatan :: Triangles (Digitalis)
Triangles is just an honest to goodness, straight-up electronic record crafted with an ear for layered melody and sparkling effects-work that conjures atmospheres so sublimely heady […]
