Leo :: Cicada Burnt EP (Peak Oil)
Leo’s latest six-track EP, Cicada Burnt, is a stunningly crafted collection of teknoid soundscapes where cutting-edge pulses scatter love bullets of intent with serious depth, weight and imagination.
V/A :: Witchcraft & Black Magic In The United Kingdom (Expanded Version) (Eighth Tower)
All in all, a very good introduction to Eighth Tower’s substantial catalog for lovers of deep electronic sound art. Quite recommended while reading Margaret Murray’s acclaimed history of European witchcraft.
mico nonet :: The Cardboard Falcon (Ninevolt Labs)
The Cardboard Falcon is a profoundly vibrant, impressionistic, cinematic, slow-moving, and melodically oriented neoclassical album that will lead the listener to a state of serenity and contemplation.
Cosmos in Collision :: Unwound EP (Sun Sea Sky)
Cosmos in Collision’s Unwound arrives two years after The Passage of Time and confirms the direction of an ever-evolving project, capable of building dense and cinematic atmospheres. The cover artwork is an original watercolor by Cosmos in Collision, visually translating the narrative arc of the record: three chromatic fields blending from indigo to black, crossed by a white thread that slowly thins until it disappears.
Christophe Bailleau O’Farrell :: Romantic, Visceral (Mahorka)
Romantic, Visceral is highly recommended for those who enjoy challenging music with semi-classical overtones and chilling stylistic pathways dominated by energetic electronic textures. Without neglecting its own originality and trippy, chameleon-like strength, this album stands as the missing link between Brendan Moeller, Burial, and Michel Portal.
Scorn-Fury :: Outside the limits of Your Sight (Rednetic)
Outside the limits of Your Sight arrives as something closer to an exploratory document than a straight club record, and the opener makes that clear immediately. It doesn’t set you up for what you’d expect, instead it eases in with something eerie and ambient, almost hesitant, like a producer deliberately withholding the more familiar version of himself to see how long you’ll follow.
Six Missing :: drift, sway (Nettwerk)
Austin-based composer/sound designer TJ Dumser (Six Missing) returned to roots for drift, sway—eschewing scale for intimacy in a minimal set mixing guitar loops and vintage synths with tactile timbres to create soundscapes for deep listening, reflection and filmic ambience.
BedouinDrone + Brainquake :: Mood Starters (Mahorka)
(Mood Starters) is a dark, hypnotic, and eerie techno-ish industrial album surrounded by dystopian themes of a humanity trapped in an uncertain future, standing before unspeakable malefic forces.
David Helpling & Scott Reich :: Through The Thought Horizon (Spotted Peccary Music)
As a first collaboration of David and Scott, the feeling is immediately harmonically balanced and calming, the overall flow allows for sightseeing while you are napping. Cinematic tinkling satisfying hearts and minds, two chill guys, gentle souls making lovely music. Through the Thought Horizon is a melodic, beautiful, and deeply resonant album.
Netherworld :: The Hermit (Glacial Movements)
Following chilling mysteries emerging from Arctic expeditions and unveiling the metaphysical strength captured in ice-cold landscapes, the droning sound art project Netherworld (alias Alessandro Tedeschi, founder of Glacial Movements Records) is back to the forefront.
