Vaag & Poborsk :: Evel_071 (Evel) — [concise]
Evel_071 is a testament to Vaag and Poborsk’s shared genius, a fearless exploration of contrast and convergence, and a celebration of the unpredictable power of duality.
Weldroid :: Painted City (Mahorka)
Mind-bending, hypnotic, and absolutely essential—Weldroid delivers a sonic experience that is both brutal and beautiful, a rare immersion into sound and motion picture that demands attention and rewards surrender.
The Fly :: No Duplication (Labile)
Ultimately, No Duplication doesn’t conform to genre boundaries—it moves fluidly through time, memory, and mood, finding resonance not in classification but in the emotional undercurrent that ties it all together.
Paper Ghost :: 4 Ways to Kill a Phantom EP (Clean Error)
Paper Ghost’s 4 Ways to Kill a Phantom transforms into a shimmering sequence of sonic phantasmagoria—dust-flecked, glitched-out, and intricately textured.
Parallel Worlds :: Modular Stories (Neo Ouija)
Modular Stories seamlessly weaves together dense modular sequences, ambient drift, and tightly wound percussion, keeping the listener locked in and engaged.
V/A :: Full Spectrum 2 (Touched Music)
More than a mere meeting point of like-minded musicians—Full Spectrum 2 is an ecosystem of sound, vibrant with diversity, purpose, and heart.
V/A :: Tension/Release 2 (Errorgrid / Heterodox)
What emerges is a searing collision of glitch, post-industrial menace, techno abrasion, and scorched-electronic textures—a surreal expedition into the darker dimensions of sonic architecture. This is not just a compilation; it’s a visceral map of the Northwest’s most daring sound manipulators.
Nazar :: Demilitarize (Hyperdub)
Like Nazar himself in the lyrics, Demilitarize appears inaccessible at first, using its abstraction and deconstruction as a shield. But a strong light still shines through this shell and sinks in a bit at a time, first with circumspection, then with warmth, until opening itself to repeated listens and blooming in all its beauty and intention.
Ndorfik & madebyitself :: Solos EP (People Can Listen) — [concise]
An elegant dialogue between nostalgia and nuance, where electronic music breathes with a steady, human pulse.
