Huxion :: Huxion (ata:empire)
The subdued ambient techno strands and melodic rhythms oscillate back and forth with thoughtfully placed atmospheric pulses, creating a sound as hazy as time itself.
D-Fried :: The Spirit of the Young Poets (See Blue Audio)
The scene is full of muted blips and bleeps hidden beneath a multitude of waves that gently rise and fall, occasionally dipping into distant echoes of light and evolving drone tones.
Marco Simioni :: FOMO (Detroit Underground)
Another incredibly surreal album of cutting-edge experimental electronic music from a gifted sound design artist.
Esthetic & Reac-Zo :: Torii EP (Onset Audio)
Torii is a potent sonic transmission that is reminiscent of early Einóma, Traject, and Atiq & EnK where deconstructed tribal grooves are balanced over compacted beatwork and dark bass troves.
Valance Drakes :: Hate Devours Its Host (Amek Collective)
Definitely a planned voyage submerged in hundreds of warped electrical sound fields and swirling auditory debris, this is a mechanical and alien bombardment of the senses.
Adrien d’Elzius :: Silent Revolution EP (Abstrakt Reflections)
Silent Revolution is a perplexing aural buffet of abstract electro-nics and side splitting bass skills, consisting of four tracks and two remixes.
Hexalyne / Lain :: Evel 46 (Evel)
The tiniest particles and granular rhythms here are seductive and as abstract as ever, but it’s the evenly dispersed ambient threads that hold the disparate parts together so effectively.
