Sometimes, leaning heavily on the synthesizers, more on the piano, sometimes melodies shimmer around the corner, just as they can be entirely abstract. All of this is done with one objective, and one that he reaches: to play some excellent fine mood music.

David Newlyn :: Encouraged To Lose (Sound In Silence)
Each of these five pieces shows a melodic drift, slow, hazy and shimmering in the background. It’s like an organ melody set against the blurry tones of whatever else is happening, which can’t be easily heard.
Akuratyde :: Head First (Modern Conveniences)
A harmonious assemblage of emotional, calming, and effortlessly absorbing magnetic rhythms creating a symbiotic effect. Bass, breaks, and blissful beats to lull us into spring.
V/A :: Genome 4 (Point Source Electronic Arts)
The artists on the roster, each crafting their own fractured soundscapes, represent the state of experimental electronics in a decisive way as the appropriately named imprint actively pursues all types of visual-audio creation—bringing together a wide range of talented musicians.
Brain Rays :: Slime (Acroplane) — exclusive mix
Brain Rays’ Benjamin Hudson offers us an exclusive mix in preparation for his forthcoming album Slime coming in April 2024 with Acroplane Recordings.
Morphology :: Fractures (De:tuned)
Isolation is embraced on the 2LP, chillingly clinical sounds are thawed by warming moments to bring a humanity to lonesome scores. An exceptional addition to these musicians’ expanding the canon of electronics.
chromasy :: “Paradigm” (Self Released)
While entrenched in the archives of electronica from the late 90s, chromasy sets a benchmark in the roaring twenties where subtle chord alterations and brittle sparks push “Paradigm” forward.
Kirk Degiorgio presents As One :: Reflections (30th Anniversary) (Lapsus)
Where there is no doubt is that Reflections was decades ahead of its time. This re-issue breathes new life into the tracks, reviving them to bring them back to their full glory, a glory that, thirty years later, continues to be absorbing, engaging and pioneering.
Multiples (Speedy J & Surgeon) :: Two Hours Or Something (STOOR)
Without the limitations of an hour-long set or the expectation of a dancefloor, Two Hours Or Something showcases what happens when two such artists can cut loose for days on end and test the limits of their imaginations.
Not Even Noticed :: Acid Illusion EP (Who Is Paula)
Not Even Noticed (aka Carsten Fluck and Lucas Lejeune) should gain some additional traction despite their penchant for more danceable electro-nics than I’m used to writing about.
Echaskech :: Novacene (VLSI)
A soundtrack in which its single moments are most definitely enjoyable and work as such, portraying a good variety of different imaginary scenarios that are apt to the album’s concept.
