With a seamless blend of structured instrumentation and drifting passages, this ten-track suite unfolds as a collection of evolving, serene, and blurred shoegaze elements that hover just above the realm of organic surrealism.

Whatever The Weather :: Whatever The Weather II (Ghostly International)
Ditching the percussive side in favor of more timbres and textures, Whatever The Weather II depicts some wonderful spacious soundscapes.
Serge Geyzel :: Visions I Lost EP (EC Underground)
Geyzel’s signature beats twist and intertwine with drifting melodic threads, while pulsing drones create a hypnotic atmosphere, and in sum, Visions I Lost expertly delivers on all levels.
Heavenly Silences and Earthly Noise :: Drone and Ambient Guitar on Silent Records
Sometimes what comes in a flash unfolds over a long period of time. Such a flash came to Silent Records label founder Kim Cascone one winter night as a kid. “I remember sitting in a snowbank and looking up at the stars. I spotted the blue star in the Orion constellation and gazed at it for a long time. Suddenly I had a flash, like one of those speed-collages in a film where hundreds of events all race past in a split second. I call this ‘my download’ & have been unpacking its meaning ever since.”
Sjellos : Lifeless Ground (Cryo Chamber)
With Lifeless Ground, Sjellos plunges listeners back into the dark, mechanical abyss introduced on his last album Transmission Lost (2013), intensifying the grim sense of desolation and uncertainty. Each attempt to move brings flashes of forgotten memories, or fractured images of a past life.
Substak :: Silent Observers EP (See Blue Audio)
Within Silent Observers, Substak examines humanity’s need for mental escapism from reality’s harshness, seeking self-reliance, connection with nature, and alignment with the inner spiritual cosmos.
Loess :: Battens (n5MD) — Exclusive full album stream!
Battens envelops the listener in a grayscale world, one that is cold yet somehow comforting, like the stark beauty of an overcast November afternoon.
sevensy :: one2one (Mahorka)
Exploring the shining transcendental ego absorbed by transportive sound motifs and by a kaleidoscope of spiritual colors.
Allmanna Town :: 1911 EP (Self Released) — [concise]
These fleeting and crumpled samples may be brief, but they deliver just enough energy to capture delicate microsound textures and granular, melodic tones.
Nickolas Mohanna :: Speaker Rotations (AKP)
The huge scope that Speaker Rotations depicts is well served by its compositions as well, as it sometimes starts to build to these big big walls of chaos; truth be told, loudness is never this album’s main goal, but it feels so huge that it almost tricks you into thinking you’re submerged by sound, slowly sinking in quicksand.
Amphior :: Disappearing (Glacial Movements)
Disappearing presents lonesome and meandering ambient pieces with a clear stylistic interest for tape loop techniques, blurred-out semi-classical sequences built on the reverbed piano and oxidation feeling from deteriorated-fractured acoustic instrumental signals.
