Dcast Dynamics :: Eleuthera EP (Isophlux) — Track premiere “Ritual Ascension”
Dcast Dynamics Eleuthera EP (ISO-109EP) is four tracks from Shad T. Scott, Miami’s quintessential electro maestro. Scott, long-known for works under his Isophlux and Gosub monikers among others, has long been at work in the electronic scene probing depths and bringing the results to your ears and mind.
The Fellow Passenger :: Use Markers (Point Source Electronic Arts)
In this latest assemblage, the album builds upon itself with each piece blissfully disjointed and drawing us into the void. Expanding from every angle, subtle electronic entanglements flourish with dark and light shadows.
Suumhow :: A world of errors and glitches
“Suumhow is what happens when two childhood friends who discovered electronic music together in their teens and then reunite 20 years later.” On the heels of their 5th album, appropriately titled 5ilth—available on n5MD October 25, 2024—Suumhow took some time out of their schedule to discuss the good old days of IDM, their backgrounds, processes, and beautifully choreographed sonic glitches.
Dissolved :: The Misleading Echo (Dissolvedamberrooms)
Through the combination of coalescing emotions and natural musical extrusions, Dissolved leaves us with misleading echoes that are both reassuring and distracting, frequently simultaneously.
Stefan Vincent :: Post Melancholy (Musar)
These eight tracks, ranging from the mid-90s IDM boom to today’s high-level production qualities, use lost time capsules and sophisticated synth-techno fissures to create detailed sonic shadows and throbbing breaks, bass, and broken beats.
Greg Davis :: Full Spectrum 3/7 (Autumn)
The sensation is not of a linear event but a cyclical one, constantly ebbing, flowing, evolving and repeating. In these pieces Davis seeks to enfold, embrace and uplift the listener with these enveloping works.
Kettel & Secede :: When Can (Deluxe Edition) (Lapsus, Perennial Series)
And so we come to When Can, the strangely enigmatic and oft-overlooked collaboration between Kettel and the equally elusive Secede. I’ll admit to being as surprised as I was delighted when Lapsus announced its reissue as a deluxe vinyl edition because it’s an album I adore, so much so this is now the third time I’ve written about it.
