V/A :: ZEROTWO (Black Shapes)
ZEROTWO is Black Shapes’ second statement—a tightly engineered techno EP where four distinct voices sculpt smoke-drenched, late-night architectures of tension and release, balancing ferocity and control inside a fully immersive, hallucinatory soundspace.
Acid Kult :: Silent Mantra EP (Perimeter Junk)

Joachim Spieth :: Blended (Affin)
Joachim Spieth’s Blended is a slow-burn study in restraint, where cavernous low-end, suspended atmospheres, and negative space converge into a deeply immersive, late-night listening experience.
Simon Pyke :: Aurelume (Self Released) — [concise]
Aurelume unfolds as Simon Pyke’s eleven-track meditation on soft bleep and tone, where hazy melodies, drifting pulses, and restrained rhythm coalesce into a soothing, dreamlike statement poised between IDM and abstract ambient calm.
Simon Pyke :: Prelume EP (Self Released) — [concise]

Paul Fleetwood :: Cape Breton Files (Perimeter Junk) — [concise]

Dr. Nojoke :: Inpi Mari EP (CLIKNO)
Frank Bogdanowitz, aka Dr. Nojoke, delivers Inpi Mari, a minimal techno suite that blends mournful beauty with urgent environmental consciousness.

Arrowounds :: The Loneliness of the Hollow Earth Explorer Vol. 1 (Lost Tribe Sound)
