Yella Gin :: I Was a Satellite of the Sun (Mestnost)
Although this album is set in space, its aural compositions combine technoid patterns, braindance, IDM, ambient, downtempo, and microscopic grooves with brittle melodic components that, in this limited edition cassette and digital release, manage to function nicely together here on Planet Earth.
Solypsis :: Sifting Through The Ashes (Compiled by Skymall) (Self Released)

Stefan Vincent :: Pre Melancholy EP (MUSAR)

Peltiform :: Like Phantoms (Section 27)
Their previous album—FUTURISM (Section 27, 2022—was billed as “exploring the farthest reaches of sandblasted electronics,” and Like Phantoms is a smooth progression forward. Despite being “underground” since 2009, Section 27’s releases consistently push IDM and experimental electronic boundaries, inching closer and closer to the surface.
Alessandro Ragazzo :: La deviazione del profilo (Stochastic Resonance)
The combination of noise bursts, crackles akin to a detuned radio, a return to field recordings, reverberant knob-twiddling, and terrifying noise washes, creates a powerful soundtrack that evokes a theme of nature versus industry.
Daed :: Simulcracy (Concrete Collage)
Consisting of seven short, crisp slices that mesh well together in an amalgam of fractured and frantic electronics, Simulcracy is a definitive reference point for the expansive Concrete Collage catalog.
Hanetration :: Resonator EP (Self Released)
Resonator by Cornwall, UK-based Hanetration, a five-piece collection of carefully woven ambient psychedelic electronics and intermittent downtempo, is back after a protracted hiatus.
