Experimental Electronic Music
Interlinked through shared signal and intent, Reticle emerged in early 2024 as a transatlantic alliance between Málaga’s inoperative system (Diego Ruiz) and Portland producer b0t23 (Beau Crouch), setting the foundation for a forward-leaning electro vision now pushed further through radical reworks of “Iluvia” and “Simplo” courtesy of ADJ, Justin Maxwell, Ignatius, and Rec_Overflow.
From start to close, Gorrio weaves a tightly knit narrative—electronic language spoken fluently, rhythmically, and with striking clarity.
The alchemical results shimmer across Acid Endless, a high-voltage expedition through scorched techno terrain and hypnotic acid house motifs, surging with kinetic force and raw analog fervor.
Beyond the Black Hole’s debut (Protonic Flux) is the result of years of live performances, with Renzo Gorrio and Richard Haig crafting a sound that ventures just beyond electro’s rugged edges.
Ground State announces surprise compilation to celebrate Igloo Magazine and support the Electronic Music Community. (Press Release)
Patterned Media returns with the first installment of a two-part remix compilation— b0t23 + inoperative system, Reticle Remixes Pt. 1 with remixes from across the pond by Senmove (Spain), Roel Funcken (Netherlands), Adrien d’Elzius (Belgium), and Hexalyne (Romania). Album art by b0t23.
Produced by Anders Ilar in 2015 while in Estonia, Tallinn Acid Tracks is out now via Acid Lathe—an experimental sub-label of Yard Rec—on a limited edition 4-track clear square 8” vinyl made individually on a lathe cutting machine.
Sin Ciclo skillfully combines downtempo elements with breakbeats; sprinkling nostalgic electro fragments and melodic threads with pummeling effects.
Poems is another excellent assemblage from Roulette Rekordz, who consistently curate distinctive abstract electro releases.
This collaboration started the same time as the label in 2021 (during the global pandemic) as we struggled to reconnect with the world around us. Track ideas were started in Spain by inoperative system as simple sketches and finished in the USA by b0t23.
