Fly the ocean on this silver plane of an album. It’s a smooth flight full of gentle transitions, giving a contemplative view of the larger landscape of our lives.
Tag: Abstract
[2View] Yann Novak :: Meadowsweet (redux) (Dragon’s Eye), David Vélez :: Loss (Unfathomless)
In these two deeply moving releases, Yann Novak and David Vélez transform personal grief into acts of listening, remembrance, and meaning-making.
datewithdeath :: Apple Tree Brightness (Poverty Electronics)
Apple Tree Brightness burns like sunrise personified as the latest release fromdatewithdeath (aka Travis D. Johnson), landing fresh on the ever-refined Poverty Electronics, a label that has quietly shaped its own groundbreaking corner of experimental electronics for well over a decade.
Build Buildings x Molly Gochman :: Continuum (Unending Loop)
A peaceful, singular, and cozy post-ambient journey made of lush sounds, with some chilling moments based on fragmented memories, that will ravish listeners of digitalized tape music and carefully crafted, slowly moving soundscapes.
rheom :: _ 729.root (Polygon Network)
_729.root functions less as compositions in the conventional sense and more as active scaffolding for expression—temporary sonic architectures that think through signal, texture, and constraint, that lead the artists rather than being led by them.
Yu Miyashita / Yaporigami :: IDM Collection 21-25 / The Structure of Silence (The Collection Artaud)
The 23 tracks that make up IDM Collection 21-25 / The Structure of Silence create a sonic fortress of shadow and light, featuring many rooms with complex infrastructure and sharp angles. There are geometric rhythms throughout, like gears that wind up, dismantle and reconfigure themselves, warmed by vapors of tone that slip through the cracks. As a sound designer and producer, Miyashita displays a masterful understanding of space.
Morphtables :: Absurdance (Mestnost)
Morphtables balances precise braindance programming with technoid structures, shaping a downtempo melodic pull where fractured breaks and electronic details settle into a distinctly IDM framework.
Vijunns :: 1991 (Hyperreal Projects)
This release is excellent on its own, but with so little material, it almost feels like something you’d listen to in anticipation of the next Vijunns release. Given how great the music on 1991 is, I certainly hope there’s more to come soon.
S. Salter :: Ara EP (Plusha)
Ara is a three-track 8-minute mini-EP that spans a wide emotional and sonic range across three compositions, illustrating S. Salter’s evolving language of composition, which is detailed, emotive, and increasingly expansive in scope.
Zeta Reticula :: The Human Scientific Vessel EP (Eudemonia)
Taken together, The Human Scientific Vessel is archetypal in structure but carefully executed, operating within a well-defined tradition while still asserting its own clarity of voice through precision, layering, and rhythmic intelligence.
Danalogue :: Teleportations (Castles In Space)
From bubbling synths to irresistible basslines, Teleportations makes every stop on its cosmic journey worth visiting.
