Daniel Avery :: Ultra Truth (Mute / Phantasy Sound)
Ultra Truth is a must have album not only for expressing Daniel Avery’s roots and shouting revival music to old heads, but for providing history to young electronic music fans in a contemporary couverture.
Long Range Desert Group :: Pro-oxidant (Mighty Force)
Pro-oxidant reveals itself to be a stunningly cinematic piece using a full spectrum of sounds from both the electronic and acoustic worlds.
Dana Kuehr :: Basic Moves 18 / WTRTMPL (Basic Moves)
Every track is its own unique flavor and audio trip, yet the cohesion of the album’s story sticks to the ears like sonic glue.
ZZY :: Transmutation (Detroit Underground)
ZZY have their sonic machinery tuned with ethereal and expressive glitch-electronics; the blend of atmospheric layers stretch as far as the eyes can see.
Strategy :: Unexplained Sky Burners (Peak Oil)
“I believe we are enriched in life by interaction with mysteries, even if whimsically or as a thought experiment. Zeroing in on the ‘unexplained sky burner’ allowed me to step into the zone of the unknown in a playful, and mentally necessary way I think.” ~ Paul Dickow (aka Strategy)
Weldroid :: Apprentice of Chaos (Section 27)
A solid package showcasing the artists’ ability to flex and fracture darkened electronics within the constructs of seamless and unexpected ambient voyages.
Robodroid :: From The Future EP (LDI)
While the futuristic sci-fi tropes are not uncommon in the electro genre as a whole, they are rarely so tastefully integrated into meaningful abstract sound motion without feeling forced or pasted on.
Roel Funcken :: Data Curation (EC Underground)
Rarely adhering to one rhythmic construct within the confines of a song, individual phrases are crafted to their logical conclusion with real thought as to what should come next.
Ion Driver :: Sustain EP (Self Released)
Sustain is a baffling collection maneuvering through the vastness of glitch-space and seamless, cinematic sound design.
Burial :: Streetlands EP (Hyperdub)
Burial shows he’s unafraid of forging ahead even if it strays from his hits. This is aural cinematography created by a master storyteller working not in words but in sound itself.
