Experimental Electronic Music
With Economy of Movement, Antipodean breakbeat pioneer Social Sport delivers five restless, shape-shifting cuts where fractured rhythms, heavyweight bass and psychedelic atmospheres turn the breakbeat tradition into something fiercely alive and forward-moving.
Serge Geyzel’s So I Leave delivers a hard-hitting mix of dark breaks, deep bass, glitch, acid, and experimental energy across three tightly focused tracks.
Distort Everything Forever opens in ambience, spends most of its middle throwing rhythmic and low frequency chaos at you, then returns toward atmosphere at the end.
A veteran of groundbreaking music-video and visual collaborations, Ben Stokes puts his most personal stamp on Dimensional Holophonic Sound (DHS), his singular project blending acid electronics, old-school analog imagery, and experimental video production. Simultaneously, Stokes has built a distinctive career at the intersection of sound, art, technology, and visuals.
Kid Bucle, either knowing or unknowingly, takes a lineage built from futurism, tek-funk, broken machinery and the pleasure of the unexpected, then subjects it to contemporary pressure until something new and now begins to emerge.
Taimela isn’t trying to recreate the 90s IDM and drum and bass golden era so much as he’s drawing a line from it to the present, letting those influences inform his melodic instincts without being consumed by them. There’s a lightness to how he carries all of that reference—it never feels like homework, never feels like pastiche. It just sounds like a producer who grew up on the right records and internalized them so completely that they became his own vocabulary.
This is electro with its lineage intact and its eyes firmly ahead: studied, physical, detailed and properly funky. The lesson is simple. Know the form. Then push the production until the form starts pushing back.
Concept Record not only works as a creative tool; it demonstrates what can be created when Professor Ben’s instruction is heeded. The concept is to use this record alongside other records to make new records, while providing a legitimate D.H.S. album of its own right—one that embraces the features that help make physical records so fun and appealing.
Always willing to push miles ahead into abstract electronic substructures while reaching back for acid, rave, jungle, breaks, and ultra-low-end vibrations, this is music whose physical impact feels every bit as potent now as it might have in the mid-90s.
From noise to nice. Harsh to honed. Squelch to sculpture. Ectospasm is a 10/10 top-tier proposition for anyone still prepared to leave the comfort of the known and go poking around in whatever is moving about underneath it.
Adepta Editions have found a kindred spirit in Daniel Pringle. The label’s pursuit of emotive electronics with contortionist rhythms is part of The Jaffa Kid’s DNA. A superb pairing of pieces, two that can ignite the right floor as well as giving the mind space to roam.
