Recorded in live conditions Rebirth/Omen is an intricate and captivating abstract and darkly meditative release with some liturgical and spiritually-everlasting properties.

Fallen :: We are lone swans floundering in a deep river or sudden magic (Shimmering Moods)
Here, looped beats, sharp-panned synth lines, sparkling sampled piano, and glitchy “post-rock” electronica remind me of the early n5MD releases from the likes of Lights Out Asia, Epic45, and Near The Parenthesis.
4T Thieves :: The Golden Age (Rednetic)
Like light refracting through timeworn glass, The Golden Age flickers between eras, drawing us in with delicate tones and elemental textures. It is a melodic tapestry of memory, a gentle parting from a cherished land, and a luminous haven sculpted in sound.
Ben Frost :: Under Certain Light and Atmospheric Conditions (Mute)
Unlike the usual live record, Under Certain Light and Atmospheric Conditions refuses to offer the listener a concert experience by proxy, to be had in the comfort of one’s own headphones. The inclusion of these field recordings, and the fact that over half of the tracks are soundcheck improvisations and unreleased compositions, distances the album from a simple celebration of his past catalog.
Tomosla :: Dunestal (Mahorka)
Dunestal flows smoothly, offering a serene, meditative journey with delicate, swelling moments—perfect for fans of ambient day-dream travels and tranquility.
Tarwater :: Nuts of Ay (Morr Music)
With each foray into the studio together, Jestram and Lippok seem to unite in that space where the third mind exists. Adding to these explorations […]
The Snodgrass :: Fragments Of A Nation EP (Self Released)
Pieced together from scattered remnants of early-2000s sessions intended for The Snodgrass’ long-lost debut It Takes a Nation of Indie Rockers to Hold Me Back, Fragments Of A Nation is both a resurrection and a revelation.
The Fun Years :: Baby, It’s Cold Inside [2025 remaster] (Keplar)
Baby, It’s Cold Outside may be seen alongside other KeplarRev reclaims (e.g. optimal lp, Herbstlaub) as unearthed ambient-electronica treasure, or a cold case re-warmed by fresh investigation; and what still distinguishes it 15+ years on is that it not only raises the ghost in the machine, but elevates it above.
V/A :: Unexplained Sounds 3.0 (Unexplained Sounds Group)
Unexplained Sounds 3.0 is a bold statement. A hauntingly beautiful homage to the legacy of the Clicks & Cuts era, this compilation highlights past innovation with future possibility, unraveling micro-rhythmic mysteries and glitch-born textures in ways both cerebral and emotionally resonant.
Caspian :: Insomnia EP (Onset Audio) — [concise]
Caspian’s Insomnia EP, a four-track plunge into the subterranean pulse of breaks and warped rhythms, is a masterclass in sonic intensity.
