Glittering ripples and harmonic tones cascade like warm waterfalls into green and azure pools where the imagination can bathe in a setting evocative of natural wonder.

ARK ZEAD :: Niptaktuk (Glacial Movements)
An ode and elegiac thrilling hymnic excursion into nebulous and highly emotional sound waves meeting the deep arcana of human consciousness.
Sideboard & Amorobsoleto :: Discount Computer Software (Evel)
Both artists transcend mere nostalgia as they not only use sampling as an important part of their creative process but also structure their tracks on original synth lines and beat making that bring freshness to the production.
Pollaar :: Sentiment Series Vol.12 (Shaw Cuts)
Sentiment Series Vol.12 is an entertaining little EP showcasing some pretty strong techno tunes. The major point of strength of this release lays in the fact that each tune offers its own approach.
David Douglas & Applescal :: Démarrage (Atomnation)
Two highly acclaimed figures of IDM, downtempo, synth, and post-techno music join forces to release a puzzling album of hyperactive grooves and hypnotic pulses seconded by soothing ambient moves. The thematic background leads the listener into the modern-era of cycling and in particular the Tour de France’s epic sport adventure.
Panoptique Electrical :: For Years (Sound In Silence)
This is synthesized drone with the addition of processed chordal timbres that are longitudinal and unobtrusive. Some sparse and detached crystal-like piano touches are also perceptible, covered by diaphanous, shimmering, and electronically generated vocal timbres.
V/A :: Quality Time Volume 4 (Bonding Tapes)
Quality Time Volume 4 slices a deep cross-section through the label’s unique sonic vision; to encapsulate a myriad of abstract electronic music structures and blend them seamlessly in this fourth volume. It might also be fitting to find more quality time and head back to Bonding Tapes’ earlier volumes again.
Aidan Baker & Dead Neanderthals :: Cast Down And Hunted (Moving Furniture)
Overall, Cast Down And Hunted is a powerful release where I doubt I’ll ever play the B-side again; because it’s THAT powerful! But that A-Side might well end up on a ‘best of’ year list.
