Stormfield & Mitoma :: Theia EP (Combat)
Perhaps some of the heaviest soundscapes we’ve heard in 2022, Stormfield & Mitoma pack more than the usual punch on Theia EP consisting of 4 original tracks and 5 remixes.
Riccardo Bazzoni :: Chrysalis EP (Errorgrid)
Chrysalis flows in its transitional state of dysfunctional beauty; where time becomes a loop and all manner of chaos is somehow rolled into one cohesive state of fluctuating calm. A powerful debut, no question.
Laconic Impression :: Epidemy (Acre)
Downtempo glitch-funk hip-hop and illbient breaks all rolled up into one massive smorgasbord.
Cat Breath :: Rift (Heterodox)
Rift reveals machined grooves tethered to turbulent and calm audible vistas—an alluring balance cosily found in darker experimental electronic corners.
BLAEN :: Carmarthen Dioxide EP (Welsh Modular Alliance)
More analog and synth-blasted madness from the ever-talented South West Wales, UK-based artist BLAEN (aka John Healy of Somatic Responses).
Simona Zamboli :: Loisirs (Detroit Underground)
Simona Zamboli joins another one of electronic music’s mainstay labels Detroit Underground for their latest exploration into sound design with Loisirs.
Distant Fires Burning :: Inperspectycon Vol.2 (Audiobulb)
The album is at its best when you hear the signature Audiobulb sound of minimalist, at times almost microscopic, glitchy ambient IDM, but there’s also some reverb drenched ambient drone.
Lost Cat Magnet :: Experiments in Terra (Heterodox)
Eight darker strewn industrial-dub strands are presented by Lost Cat Magnet (aka Ricardo Acevedo) on Experiments in Terra.
Fragile X :: Human Condition (Cue Dot)
In this moving 9-tracker Human Condition, Gorecki explores emotive forms that are delicate and subtle on the broad strokes, with intensifying eclectic details baked within.
Özcan Saraç :: Copnvvvs (Kaer’Uiks)
