Sounds puncture space, and things float to the surface. It’s just another ordinary day for being human and listening to music when the smallest detail might make the biggest waves.

V/A :: Past/Present 2024 Compilation (Past Inside The Present)
If you, like me, may have been struggling to keep up with all the labels and artists you follow throughout the year, then compilations like Past/Present may come as some sort of godsend. Highlighting just about anything that Past Inside the Present have been pumping out in 2024, this compilation spans a lengthy three hours and showcases all the various shades of ambience that PITP specialize in.
Dött Ljus :: Bottna (Slowcraft)
A successful and continuously pleasant album that pushes the senses with its serene atmosphere. Imagine an impossible meeting between Farben, Thomas Brinkmann, Purl, Mind over MIDI, Mike Slott, and Malmö; but also with an avenue to experiment within a handful of bright, flourishing and drifting ideas.
Luca Bevacqua :: Alpi Graie e Pennine EP (Detroit Underground)
Both subtle and saturated with distilled microsound layers, Alpi Graie e Pennine is simply otherworldly and comes highly recommended.
Grischa Lichtenberger :: 1224_28_lv_1_re obliteration (dingn\dents)
Compared to Grischa Lichtenberger’s previous efforts, 1224_28_lv_1_re obliteration—released by South Korean label dingn\dents at the extreme tail end of 2024—leans even further into the digital noise side of glitch.
Murcof :: Twin Color (vol. I) (InFiné)
Twin Color (vol. I), with its recontextualization of analog synthesis with post-digital methodologies, its creation of a sound at once nostalgic and future-based, bears eloquent testimony to Murcof’s continued innovation in the electronic sphere.
P.ST :: The Noise Fields (Silent)
The four fields of noise on this album connect different points in deep time to an essential temporal unity in a carnival of whirling chaos whose sound is as powerful as any cyclone or vortex. It can suck you in, and through its portal, transport your mind into another world of consciousness.
Neuro… No Neuro :: Card Catalogue (Dragon’s Eye)
Can you create your own Zen on an eleven-hour flight from Berlin to Miami? I gave it a try with the February 2025 album Card Catalogue, by Neuro… No Neuro. Flights are a world of fleeting moments and constant interruptions. This album invites you to pause, sift through your mental archives, and find solace in the texture of memory.
Sciuridae :: \\\Sciuridae/// (Woodland Creatures)
The eponymous Sciuridae release for Woodland Creatures is dotted with crunchy blips and a sparse techno theme that breaks apart into delectable atmospheric chapters.
