Experimental Electronic Music
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.
Latest Onset Audio release, BMA & Robbyt deliver Arbitrary Arbitrage / Lockbox, a taut two-tracker driven by dark breaks, dense pressure, and full-spectrum low-end hostility.
Icosagon marks 20 years of IDMforums, bringing together artists from across the community’s history in a two-volume release that reflects its collaborative spirit and evolving sound.
Hellacopta’s Collapse EP on Onset Audio is a ferocious 118 BPM industrial punk-funk statement—half-time, machine-tooled techno that balances surgical control with explosive, rib-rattling chaos.
Squarepusher’s Stereotype, originally a 1994 underground release, captures the raw beginnings of Thomas Jenkinson’s genre-defying sound—where fretless bass meets electronic chaos. Now reissued by Warp, it remains jagged, urgent, and emotionally charged, a vital document of ‘90s UK rave culture and a bold statement of artistic freedom.
Erratic and unsettling yet undeniably gripping, this set builds upon warped foundations of industrial dub, mutated jungle, and disfigured hip-hop structures. It’s an excavation—reaching backward while marching toward a future of controlled chaos and sculpted dissonance.
Despite a 2,500-mile distance and sprawling solo discographies, Snowbeasts and Solypsis operate here as if face-to-face—crushing boundaries, igniting audio wreckage, and forging bold new altars of sound.
Unrelenting and visionary, this EP is a high-caliber dispatch from a producer still pushing far beyond the present.
Slovenian duo HardWired forge sonic architecture with brutal clarity, marking their debut on Onset Audio through scorched beats and basslines driven by raw intensity.
Fuck The Legal Stations is both time capsule and time machine—a heavy, heady transmission from the past that looks defiantly forward, remixing the rubble of yesterday’s underground into tomorrow’s auditory blueprint.
Caspian’s Insomnia EP, a four-track plunge into the subterranean pulse of breaks and warped rhythms, is a masterclass in sonic intensity.
