Caldon Glover :: Bird Machine (Self Released)
Five tracks of somewhat dark atmospheric exposures, ranging from just over five minutes to almost eleven minutes in duration. Most of the action is perhaps within the realm of atmospheric drone arts but there are some shocking incidents that give an enlightening bump to the constant listener.
Icky Reels :: DL Poisons (Self Released)
The downtempo chug is still there, but it’s been processed through decades of IDM evolution, filtered through the same sensibility that informed Beans’ abstract hip-hop work and Schematic’s experimental roster. DL Poisons’ unsettling in the way that the best experimental electronic music should be, familiar enough to feel grounded, strange enough to keep you off balance.
Invictus Hi-Fi :: The Hacienda Must Be Destroyed EP (Self Released)
Across four tracks, Invictus Hi-Fi leans into sampler grit, psychedelic color and rough-edged rhythm science, conjuring a sound that sits somewhere between warehouse afterglow and mature bedroom-studio experimentation.
Substak :: Abrasive Deluge (ECHØVEIL)
Substak returns with Abrasive Deluge, a stark and immersive dive into eroded ambient textures and haunted sonic debris.
shizukesa :: destroy//destroy (Self Released)
shizukesa’s destroy//destroy reframes lo-fi as a disciplined study in motion and restraint, where stuttering rhythms, minimal structures, and carefully rationed momentum turn negative space into the record’s primary expressive force.
KILN :: Lemon Borealis (A Strangely Isolated Place)
Indeed over the course of this first for ASIP KILN fire shivering shapes and febrile forms into a timbral trade-off of hi v. lo-fi; a quiet riot of rhythm’n’sound ranging from “DrnkGrlfrnd” with its ‘aquarium-on-fire radiance’ to “Maplefunk Diptych”’s ‘garden groove of field-recorded percussion’ to the ‘sizzling whiteout’ of “Deacon Rayhand.”
Departure Street :: Phantom Sightings (Wormhole World)
Minimalistic guitar music that works as an easy going soundscape for a minimally distracting background that does not require your absolute attention, but it can also satisfy the need for details and perfect construction.
CLOUDWARMER :: Nostalgia For a Future That Never Happened (blocSonic)
Swimming together in the tangential downpour of torrential media percussion and repercussion, all of this material can be considered as an excavation of a lost futurist consciousness.
Zachary Gray :: Trippin’ Variations (A Person Disguised as People)
The release of Trippin’ Variations via A Person Disguised as People is further evidence of Gray’s growing profile with a variety of tweakings to the original track from FC Commitments, Soft Operator, James Scott, SXXN, Stan K, Hidden Rivers, and Drummachinemike.
Drummachinemike :: A Quiet Death (Self-Released)
A Quiet Death is a robust and dark rumbling glitch assembly despite primarily using synthetic and staccato drum segments. The tracks are highly palatable and shift into a variety of structures and genres, pushing the album into rugged terrain, making it highly recommended.
