Another exciting retro-modern album, Deep Desert Dweller is a great example of when an artist truly gets the Detroit sound of the early 90s.

Strange Antiquark :: Elektronische Komposition N.1 (Evel)
An endless sequence of images and rhythmic leftovers that merge to develop an intimate and personal narrative.
Nu Partial :: RRRRECEPTION EP (Renraku)
Nu Partial finds and displaces broken bass, beats and glitchy rhythms across a wide array of soundtrack shifts and harmonic moments.
0.syx :: Radials (Schematic Music Company)
Four heavily bent and twisted tracks of irregular, skittering rhythms and almost-discordant synths awash in layers of effects.
Tapage :: Recover (Point Source Electronic Arts)
If you’ve ever rocked out to a Gridlock track or gotten into an debate about whether Envane or Cichlisuite is the best late-90s Autechre EP, this album is for you.
Sleep Clinic :: Talus (Errorgrid)
Packed full of dense overlapping rhythms that they begin instead to bleed together into a wall of sound.
Franck Kartell :: Electric Sheep EP (LDI)
Electric Sheep is underpinned with hardened electro/break beats and has a sparse, beautifully mixed minimal sound to it that tingles the ears.
No Type :: 1998 called, they want their internet back ;)
No Type is a community of labels, an independent space away from the big platforms, and most importantly: a place to discover new sounds.
Plaster :: Blends (Eklero)
Allowing a sonic plethora of soundscapes to escape our reach while at the same time inviting the listener to next level experimental electronics and downtempo sorcery.
Roel Funcken :: The Candarian Ruins EP (track and video exclusive)
Roel Funcken releases The Candarian Ruins EP in May 2021—a collection of seven tracks produced in the last couple of months.
Skua Atlantic :: Silfra Diving (Fantasy Enhancing)
Primarily an IDM album interspersed with long ambient passages and the occasional nod to the past with some retro analogue motifs that instantly recall moments from 90s ambient techno.
