Building up and breaking down, the recording slowly melts in front of our eyes, its magnetic pulse and downtempo distortion is utterly sublime.

shimura :: Transmission (Petite Victory Collective)
From peculiar vocal samples, to sputtering noises, drones, and dystopian soundtracks, these are transmissions from the farthest edges somehow understanding each other.
Nemerov :: Ballet for Four People (Self Released)
Ballet for Four People cuts a section through a myriad of found-sounds and bubbling synths, where broken notes and low-end rumbling grooves flutter, spark, and eventually explode.
Room of Wires :: Welcome To The End Game (Ant-Zen)
My initial overall impression of Welcome To The End Game is that this is a very worthy follow up to earlier releases. We are greeted with all of the hallmarks of RoW including their fractured beats, evocative and emotional synth lines…
Parallel Worlds :: Reflections (Móatún 7)
What I hear is existing simultaneously, a pattern is gathered and then begins cycling, with improvisations with how the pattern is expressed, trading solo jams within the marching machine cadence.
Serge Geyzel :: As Fallen Leaves EP (brokntoys)
Soft pads and bouncy electronica in full force; beat juggling through a half-dozen pieces of sublime rhythms.
Sumner :: Post Apocalypse Now (Heterodox)
We can hear distant voices tethered to crumbled industrial beats and bass as Sumner (aka Ramon Mills and Jason Cesarz) deliver Post Apocalypse Now, mastered by none-other than Robert Galbraith of Component Records.
Lowfish :: Thaw EP (Analogical Force)
Within these thudding analog bass lines and sandblasted harmonies, de Rocher continues to pierce raw elements of electro and braindance.
V/A :: Opposing Forces (Errorgrid)
Six tracks of artists brought together from differing sonic styles might sound like a recipe for disaster, but this collection shows that new ideas can come from different sources.
The Snodgrass :: Growlbient (imputor?)
Like faulty machines speaking to each other, dissolved blips, bleeps, and haunted ambient structures begin to deform and deteriorate.
Somatic Responses :: Psychic Artillery (Self Released)
Psychic Artillery is simply the epicenter of deconstructed industrial electronics, and it’s great to see this outfit continue to master it.
