Experimental Electronic Music
Biogenes Resources is a testament to what a new generation of Russian electronic artists would do. The hope and whimsy that permeate the album hark back to a time of potential, where possibilities stretched across the many time zones of the vast Eastern land. In this reproduction, using the original MIDI files, the past reminds us of both the preciousness of our freedom of expression and that such expression can never be stifled.
J. Gorecki returns with Simulacra, a meticulously crafted seven-track journey that balances warm analog textures, fractured rhythms, and immersive atmospheres into one of his most fully realized electronic statements to date.
Piercing electronics and cinematic sonic extensions are folded into colossal forms across Jérôme Chassagnard’s Hora Fugit, an 11-track suite that constantly contracts and expands.
In Rotation across the past several weeks and months, this multi-view column surveys a shifting electronic landscape shaped by bold and forward-thinking artists. Expect fractured rhythms, glitch aesthetics, abstract experimentation, mechanical precision, industrial pressure, melodic detours, and bass-heavy electro transmissions from Alavux, Annie Hall, Delta Division, Koloah, Low Battery Orchestra, Modul, neuroboy, Nocto, R.I.O.T, Trofusin, and Voltaire.
The inclusion of the original album version closes the circle, reaffirming the strength of a composition capable of surviving such radical reinterpretation. Not merely a remix package, but a study in how distinctive source material can continue evolving without losing its identity.
What makes MSdrift++ resonate is its command of opposites: discipline and chaos, function and experimentation, familiarity and risk. After decades immersed in electronic music, one truth remains constant: the highest level of craft is not choosing between leading and following. It is possessing the rare ability to do both.
Taken together, The Human Scientific Vessel is archetypal in structure but carefully executed, operating within a well-defined tradition while still asserting its own clarity of voice through precision, layering, and rhythmic intelligence.
Broken rhythmic structures, exquisite sub-bass stutters, and destabilized funk mechanics colliding into something gloriously unhinged. It’s machine music with bloodstream heat—tactile, sensual, and absolutely devastating at volume.
Analogical Force remains a powerhouse label capable of balancing both forward-facing experimentation and deep respect for established electro and breaks traditions. Both approaches carry immense value, and perhaps the real excitement comes from hearing artists navigate the space between the two.
The dubbed-out vocals, the melodic fills, the use of unusual time signatures, these aren’t just technical tricks, they’re emotional tools. The album feels exploratory without getting lost, complex without being exhausting. For fans of drumfunk and the kind of brain-melting beat science that Planet Mu championed in the late 90s and early 2000s, Tessares is essential.
Necessary Unfold draws together the collective consciousness of contemporary Greek electronic music in their Various Artist label launch collection Part Time Archivists / Part Time Forgers. Coalescing electro, breaks, acid sensibilities, and IDM intent, we get 12 sublime Saturday-night anthems primed for a proper underground, word-of-mouth gathering. Summer radiates through the set.
