Autechre wound through New England on the final leg of their 2025 U.S. Tour
Electronic duo Autechre closed out the U.S. leg of their 2025 tour with two strikingly different New England performances — an intense, body-shaking set in Boston followed by a more exploratory, textural journey in Portsmouth, NH. Showcasing their mastery of sound design and space, the pair transformed each venue into a unique sonic environment before heading to Europe for the next phase of their tour.
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.

High, Holy Places and the Spaces In Between :: Ambient Girl Tour Road Diary
“We really wanted to try something very different,” Harper said. “Something that respects the sanctity of these holy places, while allowing them to be filled with new sounds—sometimes in opposition to the words and songs once rendered there, but still meaningful.”
Ayami Suzuki :: Rebirth/Omen (Cloudchamber)
Recorded in live conditions Rebirth/Omen is an intricate and captivating abstract and darkly meditative release with some liturgical and spiritually-everlasting properties.
Ben Frost :: Under Certain Light and Atmospheric Conditions (Mute)
Unlike the usual live record, Under Certain Light and Atmospheric Conditions refuses to offer the listener a concert experience by proxy, to be had in the comfort of one’s own headphones. The inclusion of these field recordings, and the fact that over half of the tracks are soundcheck improvisations and unreleased compositions, distances the album from a simple celebration of his past catalog.
Jean-François Charles :: Tenebrae (New Flore Music)
It is, indeed, a record featuring collaborators from all around the world, from jazz musicians, to classical, to spoken poetry, there is a lot to explore, with each track also being an enjoyable experience—it’s not just variety for the sake of it, there’s a lot of effort everywhere here!
Rubbish Music :: The 750-kilogram snake of destruction fatberg (Flaming Pines)
