Changing shape for their third outing, ZEROTHREE from Rome’s Black Shapes shifts away from the straight four-to-the-floor techno of the previous release m into something way deeper and more essentially elastic.

Janus Rasmussen :: INERT (Embassy One)
Rasmussen incorporates his own vocals more than ever, weaving them seamlessly into intricate electronic textures as he expands his sound into new territory while retaining the subtle restraint that has defined his work.
Hollan Holmes :: The Sanctity of Rust (Spotted Peccary Music)
Hollan Holmes delivers a conceptual ambient-electronic album that energizes beauty, while considering decay, aging, and the passage of time. This could act in a sonic parallel to Holmes’ visual art, celebrating the unconventional elegance of oxidation and endurance.
Interlude #2 :: Manja Ristić
The second Interlude episode of the series invites critically acclaimed Serbian violinist, sound artist, poet and researcher Manja Ristić. Her work offers a much-needed opening […]
Burial Grid :: NORD Compendium (Spinal Constellation)
Burial Grid (Adam Michael Kozak) has long occupied a fascinating space within the darker fringes of experimental electronic music, blending industrial grit, ambient decay, rhythmic abstraction, and noise-driven architecture into something uniquely cinematic and emotionally charged. With NORD Compendium, that vision feels sharpened to its most raw and unforgiving form.
Yakuza Jacuzzi :: Wabi-Sabi (Cyclical Dreams)
A nicely refined journey blending somewhat-synthwave textures, known organic tones, and subtle and assured rhythmology, balancing with craft atmospheres of intention with a known exploratory […]
Neuro… No Neuro :: MemLoss (Audiobulb)
Markarian has a unique process here and MemLoss conveys a unique ambience that is centered on leaving you in a daze. This isn’t abstract sound art for its own sake, it’s documentation of confusion, of forgetting, of grasping for something that’s no longer there. MemLoss doesn’t need to justify itself. It just is.
Speedy J :: Walkman (STOOR)
There’s no dancefloor here, no need to lock into a groove or deliver a drop. Instead, Paap is chasing sound for sound’s sake, pushing stereo dynamics, distorting drum loops until they fray, stretching reverbs until they fill entire rooms.
Özcan Saraç :: OS ZA CR AA NC (Evel)
OS ZA CR AA NC stands as an immense body of experimental electronic excavation — a sprawling surge of shattered atmospheres, industrial IDM pressure, broken-beat deconstruction, and invasive sound design that engulfs senses without pause.
SKSSS :: Exploraciones al Vacio (Aerial Sound)
Exploraciones Al Vacio works because it refuses to play nice. The field recordings, the layered textures, the deliberate pacing, it all adds up to something that feels purposeful rather than indulgent.
Half-Ass Astronaut :: I Like Pretty Things (Not Yet Remembered)
What begins as mechanical sound manipulation gradually transforms into drum-heavy recollections from another era entirely. A surreal passage through decades of IDM evolution, overflowing with restless imagination and stylistic bliss.
