Giano Electronics Vol.1 is a showcase of what the collective and label hope to achieve. The “sub-genres of techno, electro, acid and IDM” are all present on this 12” and executed with precision and emotion.

Fomalhaut & Nimh :: From The Longest Winter (Zoharum)
It’s difficult to classify this album in a specific musical field while it entangles granular abstract electronic minimalism with lighter ambient touches and almost e-guitar power-noises dipped in bleak orbital moves.
Tangent :: Presence Reverts to Absence (n5MD)
While signature darker tones grind and gravitate towards infinite vistas, it’s the varying microscopic shifts and fractured melodic fibers that keep us drawn into Tangent’s misty web.
Sommerfeld :: Alpha 137 EP (Ryu)
Its grit and exploratory post-industrial tones are drenched by fidgety synthetic blips and fuzzy robotic noises coming to life.
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…
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.
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.
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.
Eden Grey :: Int-Interred (EC Underground)
Int-Interred is a baffling and murky electronic smorgasbord showcasing artistic range and cultivating unique, if not moody, arrangements.
