Keef Baker :: K (Self Released)
Keef has the music production comprehension on how to make his tunes reflect old-school references we love without trying to emulate the 90’s sound as if the album was made back then. His music sounds fresh and up-to-date in such a way that could even remodel some of our recollections.
Stefan Vincent :: Post Melancholy (Musar)

Pearl River Sound :: You have to love yourself a fire (Evel)
You have to love yourself a fire surrounds itself by a plethora of abrupt breaks and distorted electro-nics; going on several tangents with low-flowing synth sections complemented by precision audio plateaus.
Yaporigami :: AE–10 EP (Adepta Editions)
On this two-tracker for Adepta Editions, Yaporigami (aka Yu Miyashita), a master sound sculptor, wraps distressed melodic landscapes with such strongly engulfing electronic structures that decompose before our very eyes.
Tescon Pol :: The Longer Morrow (Concrete Collage)
The duo’s exceptional ability to create gritty compositions, minuscule glitch shapes, and abstract vocal data streams, all coalesce in The Longer Morrow, a potent auditory collection.
ZeckDBH :: Quartet (zanderhythm)
The duo flex melodic fibers and braindance shards over a wide spectrum with funky beats, synaptic pulses, and fluttering synths. Their capacity to produce squelchy, nearly lifelike shapes is equally susceptible to deformation in the form of elastic vibrations
Yimino :: Twmpa (Touched Music)
Some may have given up dreaming, but not me—and three years later I’m more than happy to say that the patience paid off. Henry & Gerald take their rightful place in the studio and with an apparent love of Welsh mountains unleash Twmpa upon us. It’s the perfect mix and balance of classic Yimino and fresh new ideas that one might not have expected from the pair.
tsrono :: ergodicities (Point Source Electronic Arts)
Sharp ambient whirs blend in with erratic beatwork and swaying melodic strands that bend at strange angles, while darker shadows accentuate the arrival of precisely timed and densely packed atmospheric elements.
