Braulio Lam :: Blanco y Negro (Facade Electronics)
Braulio Lam’s latest on Facade Electronics dives into the quiet intensity of analog sound, where ambient textures, glitch rhythms, and minimalist tones unfold with meditative precision. Across ten tracks, he crafts a stark yet emotive landscape—marked by dub echoes, digital decay, and restrained beauty—inviting reflection through the subtle interplay of noise, silence, and structure.
Eoism :: Live (funkscapes) — [concise]
Eoism – Live is a 60-minute surge of raw electro, recorded in Jena (April 2024). Blending acid, breaks, and techno on Korg Electribes, the duo delivers bass-heavy grooves, glitchy textures, and futuristic intensity—a sharp, mechanical journey through abstract electro and rhythmic experimentation.
Nazareno [bassi] :: No/Tempo (Adepta Atanor Collection)

Submerged :: Reparations Collected In Flesh (Ohm Resistance)
Kurt Gluck, aka Submerged, unleashes a raw, unflinching statement in Reparations Collected In Flesh—a cathartic journey through personal struggle and resilience.

Squarepusher / Stereotype :: The lost album (Warp)
Squarepusher’s Stereotype, originally a 1994 underground release, captures the raw beginnings of Thomas Jenkinson’s genre-defying sound—where fretless bass meets electronic chaos.

Snowbeasts :: Dire Days (Re:Mission Entertainment)
Dire Days, the new release from Snowbeasts (Robert Galbraith and Elizabeth Virosa), is a fierce evolution—sharpened, volatile, and unflinchingly direct. Virosa’s commanding vocals cut through scorched industrial soundscapes, turning noise into political weaponry. Less abstraction, more confrontation, Dire Days is a brutalist manifesto for a world on edge.
Vreschen :: Front (Braindance News Community) — [concise]
