Bibio revisits Phantom Brickworks (Warp)
Under blankets of mostly improvised evolving loops of piano and baritone guitar can be heard muffled specters of working life, implying nature will come for everything and eventually hide the scars.
VAAG :: Twenty Two (Point Source Electronic Arts)
These perplexing sound sculptures are painstakingly designed with expressive layers to suggest a sense of uniform chaos; often broken, battered, and blistered to no end. But on the outskirts, we hear (and see) VAAG seamlessly twisting extraterrestrial glitch fabrics on Twenty Two like an experienced tailor.
Inkipak :: Phokusd (Inkitrax)
Phokusd is a concentrated collection of smothered audio works detailing some of the finest experimental electronic music that doesn’t overstay its welcome and constantly exudes top-notch production values front to back.

Druk Monet :: Something Foul EP (Glitchpulse)
Druk Monet, as a result, offers an unusual audible assortment—nothing particularly foul—that’s equal parts mechanical and organic, and all the while fascinating.
V/A :: VINT (Lapsus)
Twenty years in the making, Lapsus celebrate with this really neat compilation of slick IDM. Not always do various artists compilations have much reason behind them, but they’re always more appreciated than “best hits” or “singles” compilations; VINT, in particular, happens to also have thought behind it, as it’s not just a series of random tracks put together.
AZ-Rotator :: Magnetic Neutron Sudoku EP (Detroit Underground)
