AES DANA :: Leylines (Remaster 2025) (Ultimae)
With newly enhanced clarity, remastered Leylines reveals hidden dimensions and subtle details—glimpses of nostalgia mingling with visions of uncharted sonic futures. A cornerstone of celestial downtempo, it remains a calm yet exploratory experience that continues to resonate.
Djrum :: Under Tangled Silence (Houndstooth)
Under Tangled Silence is a lost album that has been found, a reconstructed work made whole from fragments. Born in pain, the collection is a triumph of Djrum’s musicality and his tireless effort to revive and reimagine what was gone. An immensely absorbing and original work, an accomplishment of desire and dexterity.
Roel Funcken & exm :: Flyphel (Science Cult)
Flyphel emerges as a visionary construct—where Roel Funcken and EXM (Jeroen Bax), both seasoned sculptors of audio intricacy, converge to propel alien percussion into elevated dimensions.
V/A :: Planet Mu 30 (Planet Mu)
Through every granular texture and skewed rhythm, Planet Mu reaffirms its place as one of electronic music’s most vital and visionary institutions.
Transverse :: It’s Broken (Somewherecold)
Discarded elements of broken rhythms, volatile drones, and mechanized auditory collisions are hurled together in an anarchic cascade of aural experimentation. Yet from this rubble, something transcendent emerges.
Marshall Applewhite :: Out Through The Mouth (Detroit Underground)
Something deeper pulses beneath the surface here—Marshall Applewhite deciphers alien transmissions and machine-born structures through Out Through The Mouth, where technoid ruptures ripple around an atmospheric glitchscape.
MTCH :: hkyrbnnpkmdtvovgjr (Evel)
Melody is all but absent, replaced instead by interwoven mechanical filaments that thread each track together. It’s a lattice of IDM-laced circuitry, clanking and whirring toward coherence, like sentient machines in the act of debugging themselves.
V/A :: Genome 5 (Point Source Electronic Arts)
Genome 5 secures its footing: not simply as a compilation, but as a convergence—uniting some of experimental electronic’s most forward voices in a curation that feels both elevated and enduring. A vivid collection of darker IDM expressions, tightly woven yet bristling with invention.
Zyxt :: Welter EP (Self Released)
Clocking in at just fifteen minutes, this collection is brief but immersive—a noir-electronic excursion that channels the abstract ethos of Lytle’s earlier work, now buffed and refined for contemporary ears.
LAITR :: Aphoir (Acroplane)
A vibrant fusion of crisp, intricate, and sandblasted IDM transmissions, this collection signals a bold new chapter for both the artist and the label.
