Seefeel x KMRU :: Rapture to Rupt (Warp)
Over the past couple of years they have propelled as a household name in the world of ambient, experimental and field recording—so there couldn’t be someone more admirable to deliver such a rich mix through a genre they are now notorious for.
Fortresses :: “Spring” (Dragon’s Eye)
This 8-minute single is beautifully crafted, subtly choreographed with an elegance that is both uplifting and mesmerizing.
Marco Simioni & Mattia Saviolo :: Zeitgeist: Ambient Music from 2012 to 2020 (Force Inc. / Mille Plateaux)
What is the real appeal here though, is the conviction in the use of tempo and pace, as to not get too carried away with the under current of bass and bleeps that is within some of these ambient compositions.
f5point6 :: The Shuttle Leaves At Midnight (See Blue Audio)
Each pad and orchestral influence generates a culmination in movements that takes one on many journeys.
Loess :: Totems (n5MD)
The duo’s signature chilling ambience, sharp percussion elements, and low end rumble are undeniably present—but perhaps with some surprisingly refreshing compositions that deviate from their previous output.
Interconnected :: Grainophonics (Móatún 7)
A study in minimalist drone/ambient music with occasional rhythmic episodes that gives Grainophonics a slightly glitchy and psychedelic element.
Dalham :: Fünf: The Past Is a Foreign Country EP (Castles In Space)
Rhythmically flowing, these two slices of life, while a beatless foray through nostalgic soundscapes, is as blissful to the ears as any of his previous audio works.
Amélie Nilles :: A croqué le fruit étrange (Planisphère)
We are in the middle of a mysterious and frightening forest, surrounded by trees, lightened by a starry sky. And Amelie’s floating voice gets us lost.
Cathode Ray Tube :: Wandering Stars EP (Condition:Human)
Cathode Ray Tube’s form of crunchy industrial glitch and blurry hypnotics continues to expand via Wandering Stars’ 4-piece suite.
Asymmetrical Head :: Unruly Souvenir (Bonding Tapes)
The richness of the sound palette on this album, with glitches, elastic tones, micro jungle samples and the discontinuation of rhythm, take you to a turvy parallel dream world.
