Lichon :: It’s Always About Us EP (Fungus Amungus)
The three pieces deliver an emotionally transportive, transformative, spacious, ominous, and lamenting experience for meandering string textures and slowly-evolving patterns. A sensient and uplifting spiritual […]
Wake :: Viridiflora EP (Schematic) — [concise]
Though deceptively simple on the surface, these pieces reveal a deep-rooted command of mood and motion, offering a wistful nod to the IDM genre’s emotive past without getting lost in its complexity.
Autistici :: Familiarity Folded (Audiobulb)
This release marks the first in a three-part series honoring an ongoing online collaboration with fellow experimental musicians: Familiarity Folded, Familiarity Enfolded, and Familiarity Unfolded.
A-Sun Amissa :: We Are Not Our Dread (Gizeh)
This is music made with total creative freedom, by a group perpetually evolving. Rather than repeat themselves, A-Sun Amissa continue to carve out their own shadowy corner of the experimental world—one where dread becomes catharsis, and ruin gives way to reverie.
HardWired :: Travelling at the Speed of Light EP (Onset Audio) — [concise]
Slovenian duo HardWired forge sonic architecture with brutal clarity, marking their debut on Onset Audio through scorched beats and basslines driven by raw intensity.

Gånggrift :: Tidbits For Worms (I Shall Sing Until My Land Is Free)
What results is not merely sound but a howl—a raw, unfiltered transmission from the fault lines of civilization. Brutal, surreal, and resolutely unpolished, this is music as witness, as offering, as rupture.
Vortex Count :: Mantra Remixed (Polygon Network) — [concise]
Together, these explorations form a captivating mosaic of splintered downtempo clicks and cuts, crafted from the upper echelons of experimental electronic music.
