UK live performance stalwart Si Brown as MQSA returns with the Enmity Voidance EP, a sleek five-tracker that feels both finely engineered, energetically sharp, and instinctively loose and juiced.

Samplequence :: Shatter Marbles (People Can Listen)
There’s something quietly affecting on Shatter Marbles. It doesn’t demand attention so much as it lingers, inviting reflection. What emerges is less a revival and more a reimagining of ambient IDM’s early foundations—something that doesn’t stay fixed, but moves just out of reach, leaving behind a hazy sense of familiarity that’s likely to return long after the final notes fade.
Joseph Branciforte & Jozef Dumoulin :: ITERAE (greyfade)
ITERAE belongs firmly in the latter category. It is immersive, challenging, elegant, and deeply rewarding. Joseph Branciforte and Jozef Dumoulin have created something rare: a work of experimentation that feels both intellectually rigorous and emotionally resonant. It is simply one of the best releases of the year. It is one of those recordings that reminds you why you listen in the first place.
V/A :: Full Spectrum 3 (Touched Music)
Taken as a whole, Full Spectrum 3 reinforces a broader point about contemporary electronic music. It isn’t stagnant, nor is it repeating itself. What it offers instead is a constantly expanding field of practice—one that often exists outside obvious distribution channels, away from mainstream radio, commercial television, or algorithm-led discovery feeds.
Marco Simioni :: JOMO (Detroit Underground)
JOMO functions as a distributed remix field where no single version holds authority, only variation and return. It reads as a chapter drenched in lucid fragmentation, riotous repetition, and sophisticated uncontrolled mutation across 23 parallel expressions of the same hot saucy source — here is then an album that treats composition as infrastructure, continuously dismantled and rebuilt from within, on a label to adore.
Ndorfik :: Northern Cache EP (Clean Error)
A breathtaking total display of technical mastery and emotional depth, balancing glitch-ridden experimentation with warmth on skin, indivisible empathy, and a giftedness for melodic sophistication. Ndorfik delivers a set for Clean Error that feels both meticulously engineered and profoundly and deeply heartfelt.
Electric Supply Station :: Constellation of Scars EP (See Blue Audio)
Constellation of Scars provides a delicately soothing, gentle, and meandering electronic journey, with a feeling of dislocation and emotional brightness. The main musical ingredients emphasize the spacious component and astral-like energy of the pieces, sometimes punctuated by manipulated voices based on spiritual narratives.
Fallen :: Postcards from Nowhere (Form@)
Postcards from Nowhere gives broad space to the most melodic, luminous, and accessible side of his music, mainly built on intertwined, echoing piano touches and downtempo, pulsating braindance rhythms.
exm & Roel Funcken :: Cilcit (Touched Music)
Touched Music has been doing this for over a decade now, and they’ve built a reputation for curating compilations and releases that sit at the top tier of contemporary IDM. Cilcit is no exception. This is easily one of the most exciting and great releases of 2026 and an enjoyable listen for a lot of IDM fans.
Heaven Topology :: Some Weird Apples (Ingrown)
Across eleven brief, bright passages, Some Weird Apples sketches a world of riotous melody and lightly broken funk, where playful ideas arrive quickly, bloom, and vanish before overstaying their welcome.
Serge Geyzel :: The Way To Go (Pulse State)
The Way To Go is an album you must listen to closely in order to process all that it offers. It’s not background music. It’s intentional, detailed, and structured in a way that feels both loose and precise. For a label like Pulse State, which shares Touched Music’s commitment to quality and charity, The Way To Go is a strong addition to the catalog.
