quadratschulz :: Halo Welt EP (Analogical Force)
Even a year later, quadratschulz’s Halo Welt EP from November 2023, which consists of four tracks over 21 minutes, is still a reflective trip through time.
So Much Blood :: Raw Øblations 7: Gold Tooth (Errorgrid)
Easily a highlight of the series, the forthcoming compilation finale will include all seven releases rolled up into one high-powered assemblage. Watch out.

An affecting sonic fluctuation of dark ambient surrealism, and a highly recommended deep dive.
Celine Arnauld :: Prjct Cntnt EP (New York Haunted)
Crunchy rhythmic turbulence and unpredictable electronics make up this exhausting Borg-like set.
Featherstone :: Pivot (Ernest’s Way)

Cathode Ray Tube :: Overworld EP (Condition Human)
