It’s industrial rot turned ritual, where mechanical howls and corrosive tones blur into something akin to musique concrète or audio collage—less composed than unearthed.

Kero X Gotshell :: Vacuum (Detroit Underground) — [concise]
Vacuum weaves glitch and sci-fi techno into an atmospheric fabric both hypnotic and volatile, its fragments orbiting in strange harmony. An echo from a future imagined long ago—contained, uncontained, and defiantly singular.
P ͞h r ́ o n ͉̍ i m͈ ̙ a ̜ :: The Listening Layer (Clean Error)
The Listening Layer stands as a pure expression of experimental ambient music—a kind of forensic archaeology that is both delicately tactile and unnervingly intimate.
Grant Deane :: A Coruscating Hope (◢sidehatch)
A Coruscating Hope bends its structures into semi-familiar dance contours, then dissolves them. It’s here that a subtle storm of grayscale noise and electrical charge animates an intricate, shifting sound world—where experimental electronics meet a shadowy, tactile form of techno.
V/A :: The Eraserhead. Music Inspired by the Film of David Lynch (Unexplained Sounds Group)
This strangely and mysteriously moving compilation album brilliantly honors the gloomy and surreal atmospherics of Lynch’s early experimental film masterpiece, Eraserhead.
kaoshipnótico :: Ascensores, aeropuertos, escaleras, ahorcamientos, castraciones (earsheltering)
Rather than relying on brute force, kaoshipnótico crafts dynamic tension across the album’s jagged structure. Found sounds, metallic screeches, circuit-bent textures, and industrial rumble all collide in waves of distortion that suggest both panic and ritual.
The Mellowtrons :: Protected EP (Voidstar Productions) — [concise]
A frenetic voltage crackles—diffuse yet finely honed into serrated, dub-drenched silhouettes—across Protected by The Mellowtrons (aka Lee Walker).
Tom Hall :: Trip Computer (Sonoptik)
Tom Hall sculpts granular textures and rhythmic fragments into form—an exercise in data compression through tactile, resonant frequencies. Bass pulses, tonal debris, and percussive detail coalesce into a focused, razor-sharp sound world. Each track breathes with emotion, even as it lives inside the circuitry.
Snowbeasts & Solypsis :: Extinction Burst (Component)
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.
Boards of Canada :: Music Has The Right To Children (Warp/Skam) — [flashback]
Boards of Canada’s Music Has the Right to Children stands as a quintessential cornerstone of downtempo electronic music—a seminal release that propelled the enigmatic duo of Mike Sandison and Marcus Eoin into a boundless realm of nostalgic reverie. In this edition of our “Flashback” column, Anne Jackson revisits the album’s haunting landscapes, with particular focus on “Telephasic Workshop,” a track that encapsulates a paradoxical beauty: at once claustrophobic and transcendent in its sonic intricacy.
The Tear Garden :: “A Return” from the forthcoming Astral Elevator album on Artoffact Records
A new single from The Tear Garden is like a signal from beyond—dark, dreamy, and full of promise. With Astral Elevator arriving October 24th on Artoffact Records, cEvin Key and Edward Kaspel prove they haven’t lost their edge. This track’s pulsing bass, eerie synths, and vivid lyrics capture the spirit of their early work while hinting at something new—and it’s got me ready for the full trip.
