Reviews
Paperclip Minimiser :: II (peak oil)
Titleless tracks and stripped-back aesthetics conceal a deliberate complexity. By reducing to essentials, Paperclip Minimiser reveals mature, confident production—slicker than oil, hot with intent, and deeply, deliciously rooted in bass culture’s enduring swing.
Brotherhood of Sleep :: Enter the Nuummite Cosmos (Zazen Sounds)
If you are seeking background music to accompany a descent into a post-apocalyptic, neo-mythological literary universe—something akin to the worlds of Lord Dunsany, Arthur Machen, or Abraham Merritt—Enter the Nuummite Cosmos is particularly well suited.
tsrono :: vrtiglavica (Self Released)
What lingers most is tsrono’s steady hand amid disorder. Rhythmic elements drift slightly beyond reach, echoing a period when labels like Toytronic, City Centre Offices, Benbecula, and U-Cover championed late-90s and early-00s IDM.
PhenoTone :: Scale Diagonal (Zoku – Zoku)
These tracks breathe in vast, subaqueous chambers: chasmic, humid, and alive with a tactile sense of depth. There’s a richness here that feels both organic and engineered, a kind of fertile sonic pressure where detail accumulates rather than overwhelms.
Neuro… No Neuro :: Were we really there? EP (Self Released)
The newest expression, Were we really there?, is a beatless paean to somnambulist mornings at campfire-ember edges, or where the lull of lapping lakes adjacent to preemptive summer sunsets captivate.
Shīdo :: Interims (Woodland Creatures) — [concise]
Interims casts a lullaby-like spell—a surreal fracture in time, a quiet refuge from modern noise, and an ambient glow that invites full immersion from beginning to end.
Shane Parish :: Autechre Guitar (Palilalia)
Gratitude feels like the right place to begin—because without a chance introduction decades ago, this remarkable record might never have found its way into the world.
clocolan :: When The Emptying Sun Filled the Sky (Red Pan) — [concise]
Sound here leans toward airy abstraction; When The Emptying Sun Filled the Sky glides through drone and slow motion, maintaining a subtle pull throughout. It plays like a companion for solitude, offering a calm passage inward, where stillness feels both intimate and restorative.
Grosso Gadgetto :: Progressus (Mahorka)
A delicious, bittersweet atmosphere gently envelops Progressus, carrying a sense of timeless grace and sentient enchantment throughout.
Precenphix :: Teichopsia (Not Yet Remembered / Move Quiet)
Teichopsia is a dense, interactive array of drifting electronic environments—machinery humming somewhere above the atmosphere, signals circling endlessly through cold orbital nights. An unyielding ambient-industrial smorgasbord not to be missed.
