Double review for zakè’s B⁴+3 (Zakè Drone) and zakè & Benoît Pioulard’s eve (Past Inside The Present)—proceeding to windblown drones and bells tintinnabulating across the sound field.

Rodrigo Passannanti :: Omnipresence (EC Underground)
The aptly-titled compendium seeks solace in transparent melodic layers, continually engaging its listeners through expansive and cinematic sonic snapshots.
A_A :: Diskordant (Artificial Owl Recordings)
Diskordant is a live, improvisational minimal extrusion from below the surface that ebbs and flows with a sense of aural wonder—its thick textures and tones are the core elements.
Rudy Adrian :: Reflections On A Moonlit Lake (Spotted Peccary Music)
Reflections On A Moonlit Lake is a meditation on freshwater mysteries and the delicate feelings of being at a lakeside camp in the wilderness. Rudy Adrian paints sylvan scenes with sound. There are no maddening blood-seeking insects at this lake.
Echaskech :: Novacene (VLSI)
A soundtrack in which its single moments are most definitely enjoyable and work as such, portraying a good variety of different imaginary scenarios that are apt to the album’s concept.
David Helpling & Jon Jenkins :: A Treasured World (Spotted Peccary)
The natural synergy between Helpling and Jenkins is well known for bringing their melodic ringing dynamics of cinematic electronics, somehow merging piquant flavors of rock sensibilities, ambient electronic, and limitless atmospheric space music.
mōshonsensu :: Even Keel (Touched Music)
The ten tracks on Even Keel, which was published in August 2023, flex and sputter with a somber electronica intensity that skillfully projects early Warp, Rednetic, Toytronic, and Neo Ouija labels’ output.
Daiki F :: A Walk in the Countryside (Rednetic)
Overall, I feel a recharging of positive energy, higher energy levels, and a purification of negative thoughts, nice and slow with some gem false endings, when things seem to settle down to wrap up, and then starts back up again.
Panopticum :: Apophenia EP (Nenormalizm)
Ultimately an EP that references early IDM years, including “connection” points such as Proem, Ochre, The Flashbulb, and Bad Loop—it’s succinctly mechanical and utterly balanced front to back.
