Experimental Electronic Music
A culmination of everything Day Before Us has cultivated over the past decade, while venturing into even more radiant, immersive terrain. For listeners willing to let go and drift in its pull, Dim Shores of Eternity is one of the most beautiful and haunting releases of the year—a spiritual monument built from silence, sorrow, and sublime sound.
There is a geography of the soul that Rafael Anton Irisarri mapped out in 2015, a cartography drawn with electrified mists, torn soundscapes, and submerged melancholies. A Fragile Geography, his third release on Room40 (see our 2016 review here), spoke at the time with a dark and hushed voice, the echo of an emotionally fractured era. Now, ten years later, the album returns in a newly curated edition by Black Knoll Editions.
Industrial sediment spreads across six distinct pieces by Ukrainian composer and sound sculptor (Kateryna) Zavoloka.
As always, Contagious Orgasm proves vital and restless—an enduring force in experimental audio since the late ’80s, still conjuring chaos and cohesion from the unruly tide of avant-garde electronics.
Designed to awaken compassion and connection, this collection reminds us that every species has its place—and right—on this planet we collectively call home.
This auditory sojourn—marked by vibrant global hues and elusive, abstract textures—fractures and fuses in unexpected ways, blurring the lines between composition and instinct.
A lean, potent assembly of forward-driving electro-nics, Contact Protocol stands as a formidable blueprint of timeless audio architecture—each track a microcosm of future-forward engineering and past-memory echoes.
It’s hard to be cranky when listening to the soothing sounds presented by Michael Grigoni and Pan•American in their first collaboration, New World, Lonely Ride, a journey into the majestic physical landscape of America as well as its grim psychic underside.
Under Tangled Silence is a lost album that has been found, a reconstructed work made whole from fragments. Born in pain, the collection is a triumph of Djrum’s musicality and his tireless effort to revive and reimagine what was gone. An immensely absorbing and original work, an accomplishment of desire and dexterity.
Flyphel emerges as a visionary construct—where Roel Funcken and EXM (Jeroen Bax), both seasoned sculptors of audio intricacy, converge to propel alien percussion into elevated dimensions.
An ambitious and quietly dazzling release, this is ambient music as architecture: expansive, intimate, and brimming with quiet wonder. A standout of 2025, and a testament to two artists in rare alignment.
