These are undoubtedly dark ambient veils woven by a dedicated sonic detailer. All in all, a pulsating, abstract, and translucent album.

Dave Seidel :: Homage to Hennix (The Electric Harpsichord reinterpreted) (Self Released)
It is good to hear another contribution to the genre from Dave Seidel, whose homage is a masterpiece in its own right. That’s no surprise considering how as a musician, he continues to stay true and in tune with his own musical vision, all while extending the techniques of the masters who went before him.
Hanetration :: Resonator EP (Self Released)
Resonator by Cornwall, UK-based Hanetration, a five-piece collection of carefully woven ambient psychedelic electronics and intermittent downtempo, is back after a protracted hiatus.
ILUITEQ + Lorenzo Montanà :: Katà Métron (n5MD)
Katà Métron skillfully develops and reinforces the suggested objective of “living in harmony with oneself and nature,” a powerfully serene soundtrack we should all take notice of, and a surrounding sonic highlight for 2024.
A_A :: Diskordant (Artificial Owl Recordings)

There are many things hidden in these low dwelling clouds, complex tiny voices and bits of music with overlays of curved drone-like sustained tones that are overall positive and uplifting.
Brandon Invergo :: Bringing On the Eschaton (Moon Atlas)
This combination of hammering pulses, screeching feedback and tight grooves creates a captivating sound that doesn’t work solely because of its intensity, but also because Brandon Invergo shakes things up effectively throughout this release.
Suseti & Henrik Meierkord :: Trakt (Labile)
We need musicians like Suseti and Henrik Meierkord who take making slow introspective music designed for contemplation an art form, and not just something that can be replicated with a few music apps and some help from soulless AI.
Seth Nehil/Bruno Duplant :: (else)where (aufabwegen)
The fifteen vignettes that these pieces offer are rather similar in atmosphere throughout disc 1, but a significant shift happens once you reach the unnerving nature of the second disc; though the first isn’t easy either, it does leave a lot more room for relaxing and somewhat reassuring natural sounds…
Robin Parmar :: Citalá, River of Stars (Silent)
Contemporary pieces that reflect the ancient idea of the music of the spheres into the world of contemplative electronica.
36 :: Reality Engine (Past Inside The Present)
As one of the most prolific ambient/synth artists to date, Reality Engine is hardly surprising as it’s a continuous work of widescreen modern ambient electronics just as expected.
