X4 reminds us that just the right amount of brittle and jovial electronics is needed to get us through the end of the year.
Tag: Glitch
General Magic :: Nein Aber Ja (GOTO)
Combining field recordings, distorted electrical pulses, punctuated non-linear rhythms, and found sounds to create an oddly surreal mixture.
Tatamax :: Fairy Glen Appearances (20 Year Digital Edition) (Skam)
Twenty years later, Fairy Glen Appearances, which was first made available on skassette02 in 2003, is now available digitally through Skam.
Precenphix :: Husks of War (Not Yet Remembered)
Constructed as a vessel that allows curiously enticing post-ambient/noise and crumpled industrial landscapes to expand and contract, Precenphix tugs at the listeners heartstrings with this otherworldly album.
iNFO :: Mitochondrion EP (Computer Controlled)
Another outstanding example of a go-to EP from a skilled electro artisan with a release-worthy imprint. Strongly recommended.
Defrag :: Lost Worlds (Hymen)
Lost Worlds is a blisteringly vivid amalgamation of apocalyptic sounds and electronics that eventually implode, infused with corrosive and magnetic rhythms.
Oberman Knocks :: Rhemunvhurse Optikonn EP (Detroit Underground)
With Rhemunvhurse Optikonn, a half-dozen tracks chopped and diced with enough blips and bleeps beauty to last us to the end of the decade, Truswell dives even further into the abyss for Detroit Underground.
Carl Brown :: Time Slip (Mozyk)
A 12-track behemoth that sputters and shimmies its way through video-game electronics and broken breaks (with three remixes by Poborsk, Wagawaga, and The Ghost of 3.13).
