Christian and Roland Dormon arrive to Atlanta-based Clean Error Records for their latest release as Multiplex, and their labelmates give them a welcome-to-the-neighborhood basket brimming with solid remixes.
Tag: Abstract
Caural :: Aura (Prism92)
Aura leans more toward the hip-hop beat era than straight IDM, experimental in spirit, with enough left-field nuance that it resists being filed simply as instrumental hip-hop. It’s a document of a producer figuring out his own DNA in real time, two decades before anyone thought to look back and call it influential.
Camcussion :: More Sprouted Lentils (Detroit Underground)
More Sprouted Lentils is Camcussion operating at full capacity—hardware-driven, unpredictable, and completely unconcerned with playing it safe. In a genre that can sometimes mistake complexity for depth, Doig’s instinct for fun is his sharpest tool.
Speaker Music :: Synoptic Audio (Planet Mu)
Within the latest Speaker Music transmission, Brown returns to the bastion of seriously adult musical content that is Planet Mu Records for the frankly exquisite Synoptic Audio. With its theme-first offering to the experience, De Forrest proposes sound itself as a system of critical inquiry.
Pan•American :: Fly the Ocean in a Silver Plane (Kranky)
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.
[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.
