A pleasant release of relatively-downtempo noninvasive pieces that flow nicely and won’t introduce any stress into your day.

Lackluster :: Alley (Hymen)
Though the gear and technique have changed over the years, Alley still encapsulates the signature Lackluster sound. Fans of Esa’s work will feel right at home hearing this record.
Dragon & Jettenbach :: Interesting Times (Point Source Electronic Arts)
These otherworldly soundtracks bend and morph, creating explosive glitch fragments that intertwine and reform themselves, all the while, drenched in dronescapes and densely layered mechanical blips.
exm :: TreeThree (Self Released)
exm finds comfort in lengthy, amorphous soundscapes from many miles above our atmosphere.
ANORAK :: Antisocial (Concrete Collage)
An album of sped up rhythmic shadows that captivates the listener with its ravaged sonic scope and barely gives us time to take a breather.
Adrien d’Elzius :: Straight from the Void (Pt.1) EP (Self Released)
Crisp and crunchy acid swirls inhabit Straight from the Void (Pt. 1), the first EP of three as Adrien d’Elzius breaks through rugged electronic sound space.
David Harrow :: Jitter (Mighty Force)
Harrow manages to melt acid house into dub that then melts into ambient IDM.
V/A :: Various V (030303)
After each of these compilations the Utrecht imprint has only ever set the bar higher, explored further and dared more. What’s next? More of what is on this record hopefully, more…change, something inevitable for these guys.
Danny Playamaqui :: AE–08 EP (Adepta Editions) — Video premiere
A varied auditory collection that pulls from all angles, and another one to definitely add to your wax collection.
Modular Man :: Chapter 1 & 2
Modular Man Chapter 1. The music of Aidan Hunt (RIP) was made between 2000 – 2023.
Andrey Rasputin :: Cherta-nova (Mestnost)
I love my soundtracks for the simple fact that they are so musical, a clear structure and arc of beginning, middle, and end—and as a narrative piece this certainly fits the bill.
