More Sprouted Lentils is Camcussion operating at full capacity—hardware-driven, unpredictable, and completely unconcerned with playing it safe. In a genre that can sometimes mistake complexity for depth, Doig’s instinct for fun is his sharpest tool.

V/A :: Mutual Motion (Body Method)
Mutual Motion gathers 25 artists across 24 tracks into a release animated by movement, bodily response, and stylistic multiplicity—an expansive survey of modern club mechanics operating at full physiological intensity.
Morphtables :: Absurdance (Mestnost)
Morphtables balances precise braindance programming with technoid structures, shaping a downtempo melodic pull where fractured breaks and electronic details settle into a distinctly IDM framework.
S. Salter :: Ara EP (Plusha)
Ara is a three-track 8-minute mini-EP that spans a wide emotional and sonic range across three compositions, illustrating S. Salter’s evolving language of composition, which is detailed, emotive, and increasingly expansive in scope.
Poppy H :: SICK STREET (Self Released)
Across eleven diverse movements, SICK STREET displays rhythmic elasticity, aural sculpting assembled from found sound, cellular technology, environmental residue, postcode mosaics, and a restless multiplicity of influence.
Meat Beat Manifesto :: Subliminal Sandwich — The original 1996 Melody Maker review, revisited 30 years later
Originally published in Melody Maker on May 11, 1996, Mark Roland’s review of Meat Beat Manifesto’s Subliminal Sandwich captured the arrival of a record that would go on to become one of electronic music’s most influential and genre-defining releases; republished here with permission, 30 years on.
Boards of Canada :: Inferno (Warp)
I trust BoC to make something interesting and emotionally effective, but when it comes to their music’s meaning, they’re slippery and mysterious. Inferno is a collection of pieces that grapple with scary feelings, scary beliefs, and the inescapable feeling that you can only trust your senses so far.
Bluetech :: Petite Constellations (DiN / Behind The Sky Music)
Petites Constellations develops shifting and subtle soundscapes with a retro-ish feeling, emerging from analog keyboards and vintage electronic equipment. However, it also stands as a thoroughly modern album, filled with kinetic grooves and bold compositional ingredients.
Marat Koshkin :: Echoloto (Soak)
Each chopped rhythm feels tethered by fragile harmonic strands, giving Echoloto its identity as a multidimensional collection of fuzzy glitch-hop abstraction, steeped in grit, grain, and faded sonic residue.
Boards of Canada :: Inferno (Warp) — In an Age of Ruin, We Need to Believe
What began as speculation over a possible new Boards of Canada release evolved into a meditation on how their rare and mysterious presence awakens a profound collective longing for beauty, unity, and transcendence in an increasingly fragmented world.
V/A :: soak vol 2 (Soak)
soak vol 2 unfolds like a damaged transmission from somewhere intimate and unplaceable—32 fractured, emotional, and strangely beautiful pieces stitched together from the outer edges of contemporary electronic sound.
