The sensation is not of a linear event but a cyclical one, constantly ebbing, flowing, evolving and repeating. In these pieces Davis seeks to enfold, embrace and uplift the listener with these enveloping works.

Kettel & Secede :: When Can (Deluxe Edition) (Lapsus, Perennial Series)
And so we come to When Can, the strangely enigmatic and oft-overlooked collaboration between Kettel and the equally elusive Secede. I’ll admit to being as surprised as I was delighted when Lapsus announced its reissue as a deluxe vinyl edition because it’s an album I adore, so much so this is now the third time I’ve written about it.
Bernhard Living :: From Here to There (Self Released)
One of the many experimental three-track records from Bernhard Living, From Here to There is yet another exploration of tonality and thought.
Plastikman :: Musik (30th Anniversary Edition) (NovaMute)
Vinyl reissue of Richie Hawtin’s revered second album as Plastikman remastered from the original tapes. The 30th Anniversary edition of Musik, the groundbreaking second studio album by Richie Hawtin, has been announced for release on NovaMute on December 6, 2024. It is manufactured with environmentally-conscious packaging, pressed on bio-vinyl.
DFKT :: Armagideon Machines EP (Dystopian Dub Discotheque)
Armagideon Machines is a robust EP pushing forward with sandblasted rhythmic dark-ambient dub strands from the farthest reaches of our universe, and is a treat to consume in one take.
Drifting In Silence | w-berg :: North Sea (Labile)
Derrick Stembridge, with over two decades of experience composing ambient music and scoring films and television, brings his expertise in crafting expansive soundscapes to this collaboration. Partnering with w-berg adds new depth and texture to the project, marking a significant evolution for both artists.
Pentagrams Of Discordia :: Teleportation to Gliese12b (Sounds Of Discordia)
Fluttering beats dissolve within ambient ice sheets, blurred samples, found sounds, and expressive atmospheric shadows that lurk in the background, encapsulating the entire cosmos in a drifting musical mashup.
Nuron :: DAT Tapes Vol 02 (De:tuned)
Interestingly, DAT Tapes Vol 02 casts light on a style that Jusat is not known for. There are moments of his trademark techno, but it is a more floor centric house that is at the heart of the record. The depth of previous productions is less evident, the explorations on offer being more rhythmic than melodic.
WE FORFEIT :: Radio Relativa #44
Our celebration, a devil-may-care romp in the aural delights of the machines, opens with some recent beauts from Gated before dipping into acid, breakbeat, electro and techno with records from Amenthia, Betonkust, Gated Recordings, Klasse Wrecks and heaps more.
Tapage & Espoir :: Descended Hope (Ant-Zen)
There’s a rolling, inchoate feel to Descended Hope that gives way to perceiving and understanding the subtler transitions in the pieces.
Fallen :: Fragments (Móatún 7)
Fragments is a very nice loop-based, drifty ambient album. Some classical sounds appear, such as guitar and piano, and they often evoke very traditionally human themes. The release is well mixed and mastered, and concern was clearly given to each composition.
