Mike Lazarev :: Tarnished Tapes and Saturated Signals (Dronarivm)
Each track feels like an artifact—a fragment of a forgotten broadcast or the warped soundtrack to a dream you only half-remember upon waking.
V/A :: Planet Mu 30 (Planet Mu)
Through every granular texture and skewed rhythm, Planet Mu reaffirms its place as one of electronic music’s most vital and visionary institutions.
Transverse :: It’s Broken (Somewherecold)
Discarded elements of broken rhythms, volatile drones, and mechanized auditory collisions are hurled together in an anarchic cascade of aural experimentation. Yet from this rubble, something transcendent emerges.
Oberlin :: Ten More Dreamwebs (Self Released) — [concise]
Though built from machines, the soundworld pulses with something strangely tender, as if translated directly from a dream-state—cinematic, organic, and eerily intimate, flowing with a quiet, uncanny grace.
Lia Bosch :: Ever Expanding (13/Silentes)
There are no narrative lines or recognizable formal progressions; instead, what emerges is a constellation of minimal sonic events, arranged according to a non-linear logic, lacking both center and conclusion. In this evolving geography, sound behaves like living matter: it surfaces, withdraws, duplicates, never settling.

To learn more about the process and inspiration behind this stunning new work, we asked Jason five questions—diving into his influences, creative approach, and the sonic evolution that led to Inherent.
Ian Boddy :: Modulations IV (DiN)
A culmination of Boddy’s ever-evolving soundcraft, Modulations IV stands as a testament to his lifelong exploration of electronic music and the synths that stitch harmony from chaos. Not just a collection of performances—it’s world-building through sound.
MTCH :: hkyrbnnpkmdtvovgjr (Evel)
Melody is all but absent, replaced instead by interwoven mechanical filaments that thread each track together. It’s a lattice of IDM-laced circuitry, clanking and whirring toward coherence, like sentient machines in the act of debugging themselves.
Substak :: Forest Of Endless Sky (Neotantra)
Forest of Endless Sky forges its stylistic path in the pure tradition of spacious drone ambient music with its longitudinal abstract textures, sense of depth, tone colors, field recordings, and imperceptible variations.
Yunx :: Coevolve (Touched Music)
Standing as a testament to Yunx’s quiet mastery—Coevolve is an album that doesn’t demand attention, but earns it through its patient unraveling, revealing a duo attuned to the poetry of electronic music and its timelessness.
