Long Range Desert Group :: Pro-oxidant (Mighty Force)
Pro-oxidant reveals itself to be a stunningly cinematic piece using a full spectrum of sounds from both the electronic and acoustic worlds.
ZZY :: Transmutation (Detroit Underground)
ZZY have their sonic machinery tuned with ethereal and expressive glitch-electronics; the blend of atmospheric layers stretch as far as the eyes can see.

Hexalyne :: Null Surfaces (Point Source Electronic Arts)
Hexalyne has mountaineered IDM’s varied peaks and valleys, standing apart as one of the leaders in the experimental electronic scene, and one we continue to look forward to discovering.
