Experimental Electronic Music
Tertium Quid admits more emphasize on orchestrated cinematic grooves, chamber-pop melodicism, sampled collage, and spoken word with a clear call to be immersed in a reflective naturescape tendency, inviting the listener to be guided in a sentient vastness where shapes, time, moods, variations and colors are journeying around him.
Forgotten Worlds lives up to its name, blending the rich, hidden depths of synthesizers with the extraordinary realms they conjure. It beckons us to explore the enigmatic, untamed heartbeat of existence itself. With layers of complexity and an all-encompassing energy, these Forgotten Worlds are treasures meant to be rediscovered, time and time again.
Black Dahlia is a relentless sonic departure and nuanced droning record of ominous, ecstatic and sublime fractures that will certainly appear among best albums of the year for lovers of adventurous music with ascending spiritual motifs.
Rontronik’s taste for noisy textures and atmospheric shines on Zero Nine. Although in terms of composition, the album runs smoothly, its production is solid enough to demonstrate a good sense of timbre, and the sound palette he chooses to highlight is astounding.
Images Sur La Mer is a two-part soundtrack dronescape that ebbs and flows into surreal textures, tones, and muted abstracts over the course of more than forty sparkling minutes.
What is the difference between abandoned and forsaken? Dark tension, pounding under sustained horror and tension. This goes on forever. We are tourists here, and can go at any time. Peering into the darkness, we linger.
Where atmospheric waves coalesce, drifting sonic ice-sheets scrape up against each other as Identity Values subtly gains momentum while aligning with Audiobulb’s extensive Rolodex of abstract sound sculptors.
An affecting sonic fluctuation of dark ambient surrealism, and a highly recommended deep dive.
Twenty years in the making, Lapsus celebrate with this really neat compilation of slick IDM. Not always do various artists compilations have much reason behind them, but they’re always more appreciated than “best hits” or “singles” compilations; VINT, in particular, happens to also have thought behind it, as it’s not just a series of random tracks put together.
