Babak Ahteshamipour :: Mind Flaying Flavored Flails (Jollies)
Occupied with sampled guitars, pianos and field recordings, crushed into granulated bits that serve as a spicy audio tortilla filling, with electronics and synthesizers dueling over the last bite, reinforcing a sense of a tectonic collision of cordial restlessness and soothing hypnotic states.
Silent Universe :: Immensity (Cryo Chamber)
Deep space. One of the larger shapes out there is murmuring, it is really huge. Now it becomes a choir, a choir of large shapes so many millions of miles away but right out there just above where we are now, murmuring sometimes, calling sometimes, very slow.
From A Harbour Softly Drawn & Andrew Wild :: EP (4th Ward Private Press)
This is art, something to listen to, not something for just relaxing or for exercising, or sleeping. This is a compelling listen because the darnedest […]
Philippe Neau :: A Quiet Place (Mahorka)
Neau records tranquil surroundings, filled with birds and a bit of water, which he combines into soundscapes. He superimposes the material, and along with that, he adds some electronics.
Toh Imago :: Refuge (InFiné)
Across the album, Toh Imago finds inventive ways of opening a dialogue between nature and machine, both literally and metaphorically, creating a soundscape that both feels like and was created by the natural world…
Fields We Found :: Distance (Seil)

Soutien Gorge :: Tarskapcsolatodban (Touched Music)
Soutien Gorge combine the playfulness and innocence of Plone, with the carefully arranged moods of ISAN, and vocal samples that wouldn’t sound out of place on a Wevie Stonder album.
Aelk Minsur :: 12 Hands and a Rope EP (Self Released)
The sheer noise and grinding metallic clangs featured on these 11 pieces can be an earful; going to the farthest edges of all that’s come before, these are perhaps some of the heaviest and most fractured tunes we’ve heard from the Arizonian.
Yellow Salamand’r :: The Best Of Yellow Salamand’r (Self Released)
Foraging through massive amounts of data and reconstituting them into byte-size recordings that have sporadic start and end points, The Best Of Yellow Yellow Salamand’r is a perplexing and dense assortment worth diving into head-first to unravel its mysterious trip.
Fractalyst :: Watchtower (Cryo Chamber)
This is theater, this is a type of dark story told by sound and I want to go back. There is something behind me now.
