Aelk Minsur :: MΩ Test Report (Self Released)
Aelk Minsur constantly mines for intensely textured industrial and electronic soundscapes, and he succeeds once more with MΩ Test Report.
yibai :: Hatch + Foster EP (EXILES)
The whole collection is a sharp and perplexing journey across experimental terrain that’s a step ahead of itself.
Oberman Knocks :: Khaptop Arc Phore EP (Errorgrid)
Errorgrid, who keep putting out darker sounds of the present future, opens UK-based Nigel Truswell’s account under his Oberman Knocks moniker. Khaptop Arc Phore then takes the imprints theme a step further with a four-track blackened IDM flood of distilled soundscapes.
4T Thieves :: Unseeing Eyes (Rednetic)
4T Thieves consistently releases intricate audio sculptures and visual displays, dousing every layer with a profusion of sharp beats and ethereal atmospheres encircled by brittle kaleidoscope rhythms, diverse found sounds, and faint vocal extracts.
Focal Point :: Manufactured Superstition / Statecraft (The Collection Artaud)
Focal Point drafts a clear-cut yet sophisticated sonic statement by combining throbbing yet subtly nuanced bass with gloomy ambient and downtempo timbres. Absolutely riveting.
Second Seasons :: Immense Heaven (Schematic)
The high-level experimental electronic grooves that Second Seasons derives are utterly perplexing as the album moves forward with intense propulsion.
Marla Hansen :: Salt (Karaoke Kalk)
Salt takes the delicate mixture of acoustic instruments such as viola, violin, piano and guitar combined with subtle electronics to the next level. The new album is both a remarkable departure and at the same time sheds a new yet reassuring light on Hansen’s work and creativity.
