A complex and tumultuous collection making for some of the heaviest and disjointed compositions we’ve heard from the ever-enduring Evel enterprise.

Mitoma :: Fragments Vol. II (Section 27)
These multi-talented musicians easily fall into the scope of exp-electronics we embed ourselves within each and every day, while Mitoma’s distinctive remodeling gives these already potent recordings an additional level of reconstruction, or fragments.
V/A :: Imaginary North Transmission 009 (Imaginary North)
Transmission 009 achieves a striking unity of sound across all of its thirteen tracks. This could even all be the work of one artist, but it’s not. While there are differences, the commonalities between these musicians flow together in sequence to create a lush tapestry.
Enabl.ed :: ErrorBalm Vol.1 (Clean Error)
Enabl.ed, however, pushes forward and creates a new chapter for IDM explorations with each piece having its unique sound fragment; punctuating sweet electrical “errors” that are sincerely esoteric and essential.
Bibio revisits Phantom Brickworks (Warp)
Under blankets of mostly improvised evolving loops of piano and baritone guitar can be heard muffled specters of working life, implying nature will come for everything and eventually hide the scars.
Francis Gri :: Svanire (Self Released)
Svanire is a delicate atmospheric album, a quite recommended experience for those who cultivate this taste of Zen in their own existence; a musical window to restore the soul with delicate harmonies. Sound therapy of bitter sweet melancholia to enlighten the heart.
Henrik Meierkord :: MÖRK (Audiobulb)
MÖRK—which means darkness in Swedish—is a vertiginous and spiritually enthralling dive in deep bass cello tones, minimally improvised guitar sequences, long sweeping electronic sounds, and hypnotic loops.
Nemerov :: Chromatic Aberration (Explorations)
In this tantalizing and aptly-titled release, several disintegrated sparks coalesce amid unique auditory aberrations.
VAAG :: Twenty Two (Point Source Electronic Arts)
These perplexing sound sculptures are painstakingly designed with expressive layers to suggest a sense of uniform chaos; often broken, battered, and blistered to no end. But on the outskirts, we hear (and see) VAAG seamlessly twisting extraterrestrial glitch fabrics on Twenty Two like an experienced tailor.
Rafael Anton Irisarri :: FAÇADISMS (Black Knoll Editions)
An ethereal ambient record that incorporates live instrumentation as well, more notably in the form of orchestral accompaniments with guitar workouts splattered throughout—and some occasional vocals too.
Inkipak :: Phokusd (Inkitrax)
Phokusd is a concentrated collection of smothered audio works detailing some of the finest experimental electronic music that doesn’t overstay its welcome and constantly exudes top-notch production values front to back.
