All I can find to explain what is here are endless crime dramas, particularly those that emphasize cynical attitudes and motivations, a dark noir album filled with harmonic textures and creeping reverbs.

D-Fried :: Images Sur La Mer (Phonocake)
Images Sur La Mer is a two-part soundtrack dronescape that ebbs and flows into surreal textures, tones, and muted abstracts over the course of more than forty sparkling minutes.
Dronny Darko :: Godless Land (Cryo Chamber)
What is the difference between abandoned and forsaken? Dark tension, pounding under sustained horror and tension. This goes on forever. We are tourists here, and can go at any time. Peering into the darkness, we linger.
V/A :: Music For Alien Temples (Eighth Tower)
The homage to epic and neo-mythological science fiction novels from classic-era is implicitly brought up to the fore. Thus this soundtrack can be well recommended while reading visionary literature from Arthur Machen and Henry Rider Haggard where heavenly mysticism meets dark energies and horror stories.
V/A :: Sampler IV (Facade Electronics)
Northern Mexico’s Facade Electronics’ annual compilation titled Sampler IV (aka Sampler IV. Present and future. Facade Electronics 2020-2025) shifts into their fourth of the series, representing fourteen tracks that spark and shimmer at all the right angles.
Otero Vargas :: Last Drives (Facade Electronics)
Overall, Last Drives is an intriguing, ominous voyage through sounds and moods. Each piece maintains momentum and is unquestionably worth the time to absorb, and perhaps return to time and time again.
Nerthus :: The Path of the Elder Ones (Eighth Tower)
Clashing noises, odd scintillations, cavernous echoes, and granular moves insidiously come to the fore to enthrall or ravish the listener in an intoxicated and poisoned tellurian or subterranean ambiguousness.
Bernhard Living :: Technological Lessness
Upon listening to Bernhard Living’s output, the music is extremely minimalistic and doesn’t actively try to be challenging in some way; so with how little there is that’s happening, I immediately knew that this was coming from someone who knew what they were doing.
Hiverlucide & Pyramid Waves :: RiotxNoise (Solium)
Almost fifty minutes of improvised spazzing noise and dizzying breaks, all mastered rather loudly, make RiotxNoise far more than exciting; if the premise wasn’t enthralling enough, there’s also vocals and a damn harpsichord on this LP; now that’s good business if you ask me.
