Burial :: Streetlands EP (Hyperdub)
Burial shows he’s unafraid of forging ahead even if it strays from his hits. This is aural cinematography created by a master storyteller working not in words but in sound itself.
Beyond the Clones :: Moon Bird (Self Released)
It’s all here, as subdued as it can ever be. Beyond the Clones doesn’t outright produce music that hits you in the face, but rather, massages our subconscious.
Tim Story :: Rust Smudges (Dais)
Each composition on Rust Smudges progresses ever so gradually, filling space while suspending time.
Desensitized :: Chaos in Premonition (Spotted Peccary)
Well, maybe there are some ghosts waiting for you, but nothing to hold the rest of us back. Tis all reliably strange. What does music sound like after death? Chaos in Premonition.
Philippe Blache :: The Ever Sounding Sea Of Grief (GH)
The Ever Sounding Sea Of Grief delivers frozen sculptures of electronic ambient where bleakness, austerity and sublimity rise from a grainy, tumultuous and rumbling sea of noises, drones and textures.
Sonogram :: Compendium (Simulacra)
Compiling all new mixes of Sonogram’s ‘quieter moments,’ Compendium makes for a subtly deep low-light listen.
Jonathan Scherk :: Toon! (Faitiche)
Abruptly formed collages can sometimes have problems with explosive rebar into a buzz-saw like changes in volume levels from sample to sample, here the flow is almost perfect, the content is certainly strange but the volume levels are very smooth.
