shimura :: Room Two (Polygon Network)
A variety of abstract electronic genres are explored in shimura’s Room Two, which blends breakbeat, ambient, IDM, drone, and complex beat patterns into a well-balanced, harmonious feast.
Anthené :: Stray Light (Floralia)
Anthené never ceases to please our meditative capacity of listening and Stray Light is highly recommended for those who like gauzy shoegazing excursions and warm tonal drones.
Dark Sky Alliance :: Interdwell (Spotted Peccary Music)
This album is thought to be organized in chapters, and each chapter best represents an evolving sound poem or improvisational mnemonic device, based on an evolving intergalactic culture. Now step through the portal and leave everything behind, enter Interdwell time.
Oberman Knocks :: Khaptop Arc Phore EP (Errorgrid)
Errorgrid, who keep putting out darker sounds of the present future, opens UK-based Nigel Truswell’s account under his Oberman Knocks moniker. Khaptop Arc Phore then takes the imprints theme a step further with a four-track blackened IDM flood of distilled soundscapes.
4T Thieves :: Unseeing Eyes (Rednetic)
4T Thieves consistently releases intricate audio sculptures and visual displays, dousing every layer with a profusion of sharp beats and ethereal atmospheres encircled by brittle kaleidoscope rhythms, diverse found sounds, and faint vocal extracts.

Seven years after its initial release, and the skilled sound sculptor returns with a revived and impacting EP.
