Baring only a 30-minute stint over the course of 9-tracks, what Mazzocchetti shortens in duration, is overcome by their exert in a myriad of sonic temptations that build in momentum as each track unloads.

exm :: ODD TIMES EP (Self Released)
A dizzying and satisfying maze of sound and wonder, noise and silence, testing the many surfaces of gliding experimental electronics.
Dfaniks :: L3 (Errorgrid)
This work is quite rich in terms of rhythm and layering details in sound design, while a main glitch aesthetic mark permeates through all tracks.
Inkipak :: dot (Touched Music)
Overall this is another well-rounded release from Inkipak who appears to be going from strength to strength recently.
prox.bleep :: RE:HER (Self Released)
Clean in architecture this single holds organic matter within that certainly makes it standout in such a heavy genre; it has a melodic touch in both harmonized vocals and disintegrated piano.
Qebo & William Fields :: αlive (3OP)
Downtempo IDM escapades are αlive and well, taking us further and further into this decade.
Billain :: Interceptor (single) (Renraku)
This 7-minute single explores broken techno and wraps them around disjointedly serene and rumbling drum’n bass blocks.
Safa :: Ibtihalat (UIQ)
Safa flexes a percussive palette that is weighted in bass and granular soundscapes. For fans of Rian Treanor and Gabor Lazar will feel right at home, although Safa’s characteristics are a different take on elasticated figures and whilst may seem like a comfortable entry—this is only the beginning.
Carl Gari & Abdullah Miniawy :: Between The Bullet And The Front Sight, Casting Lots (Live At Haus Der Kunst) (Molten Moods)
Out on the new Molten Moods, headed up by Jonas Yamer, the release comprises of eight compositions performed at the online edition of Rewire Festival 2021.
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.
