Woulg :: Hinchliffe Shuffle EP (Enig’matik)
Placed next to sonic-architects like Funckarma, Randomform and Deru, Woulg blends mild-mannered knob twiddling and mechanical effects quite beautifully making the wait for a (potential) […]
Steindór Kristinsson :: Flute Machine EP (Shipwrec)
This 12″ release on Shipwrec is lusher and less glitchy than 2003’s Milli Tónverka, and even more surprisingly, introduces Middle Eastern tonalities and instrumentation. [Release […]

Damu :: Unity (Keysound)
Each of Unity’s elements, the percussion especially, arrives, states its case politely, then leaves, forming a pleasurable impression, but not a very memorable one. It’s […]
