The combination of noise bursts, crackles akin to a detuned radio, a return to field recordings, reverberant knob-twiddling, and terrifying noise washes, creates a powerful soundtrack that evokes a theme of nature versus industry.

Brain Rays :: Slime (Acroplane)
Slime unearths powerful rhythms while at the same time uncovering unique sub-genres that coalesce on this multifaceted and heavy-duty album.
Daed :: Simulcracy (Concrete Collage)
Consisting of seven short, crisp slices that mesh well together in an amalgam of fractured and frantic electronics, Simulcracy is a definitive reference point for the expansive Concrete Collage catalog.
Richard Chartier :: On Leaving (Touch)
On Leaving contains a set of vintage variances, soothing drone tracks that are in ways abstract yet deceptively organic in nature. Minimal composition together with low pitches and recursive sets of sound contribute to this soothing effect.
Dodds Phil :: Many Moons Ago (Waxing Crescent)
Brittle electrical fields of sound that explore futuristic sculptures jump between breaks, downtempo, funk, dub, roughened techno, and magnetized hip-hop.
Dave Seidel :: Homage to Hennix (The Electric Harpsichord reinterpreted) (Self Released)
It is good to hear another contribution to the genre from Dave Seidel, whose homage is a masterpiece in its own right. That’s no surprise considering how as a musician, he continues to stay true and in tune with his own musical vision, all while extending the techniques of the masters who went before him.
Hanetration :: Resonator EP (Self Released)
Resonator by Cornwall, UK-based Hanetration, a five-piece collection of carefully woven ambient psychedelic electronics and intermittent downtempo, is back after a protracted hiatus.
Steve Hadfield :: Donald Byrne vs Bobby Fischer 0-1 – The Game of the Century (1956), Generative Chess Music (Disintegration State)
Overall, Donald Byrne vs Bobby Fischer is a great release and very worth listening to. It is smart, entrancing, transcendent, glitchy, and reminds me more than a little bit of the great works of Brian Eno.
