KORTIKO :: Course Interference EP (Errorgrid)
The semi-tribal ambient-industrial and glitch manifests KORTIKO extracts from his machines on Course Interference is an utterly intense experience.
Dragon :: Between Here and Nowhere (Adventurous Music)
Dragon (aka Peter Adjobia, founder of Ryu) continues to impact the experimental electronic scene, shattering ambient motifs with expansive noise constructs.
V/A :: Opposing Forces (Errorgrid)
Six tracks of artists brought together from differing sonic styles might sound like a recipe for disaster, but this collection shows that new ideas can come from different sources.
Broken Circuits :: Standing in Ruin EP (Errorgrid)
For a 4-song EP, Standing In Ruin bowls in and punches like a double album by Dimmu Borgir.

TÆT :: Serpent Bearer (Errorgrid)
A tried-and-true collection of mechanical sound structures, fidgeting synth workouts, and blissful melodic strands submerged in tightly threaded beat patches settled on a solid foundation.
NUNDALE :: Nothing, Nothing EP (Errorgrid)
The post-industrial expansion that Olivier Bernard Egli draws from his music machines pierces through Earth’s crust.
Dragon :: From silence, impermeable space EP (Ryu)
From silence, impermeable space EP transitions, and fades away as if nothing ever happened. As if these peculiar disheveled electrical bits were perhaps a mirage; that once we’ve wiped our eyes to see better, only vanishes into thin air.
