A study in minimalist drone/ambient music with occasional rhythmic episodes that gives Grainophonics a slightly glitchy and psychedelic element.

Asymmetrical Head :: Unruly Souvenir (Bonding Tapes)
The richness of the sound palette on this album, with glitches, elastic tones, micro jungle samples and the discontinuation of rhythm, take you to a turvy parallel dream world.
tarxun and Siavash Hakim :: Hiraeth (Flaming Pines)
With simplicity and efficiency, this album provides a series of cool, poignant, sensitive, and gauzy soundscapes built around the expressive potential of brass instruments.
Made :: When Straight Lines Become Curves EP (brokntoys)
A blast from the pasts’ future, still intact and ever forward-thinking electronics not to be missed.
Build :: A Development with a Grid of Streets and a Shopping Center Heart (Audiobulb)
The brittleness and careful attention to every microscopic note, melody, click, and lullaby rhythm tends to ebb and flow, allowing Build to quite literally build upon a variety of abstract bits and pieces that are somehow glued together.
USRNM :: Mspriints (Rednetic)
A stripped down vessel of melodic techno shards are skeletal in their appearance and gain momentum with a distinctive punch along the way.
OdNu :: Expansive Nothingness (Audiobulb)
As if to shine a light on hazy dreamlike states of consciousness, OdNu carefully plucks away—offering vast pseudo-shoegaze entanglements, blending organic sounds with digitized fizz-fuzz composition.
RENEGADE ANDROiD :: Batteries Not Included (Point Source Electronic Arts)
There is enough momentum to send you off balance, but just like a swinging metronome dumped in the burning car tyre piles of this world, always finds it centre just at the right moments.
Trichome :: Mind Body Complexing (Schematic Music Company)
Mind Body Complexing presents the refinement and enhancement of live synth jams, into seven tightly wrought, impossibly funky tracks.
Richard Chartier :: Interreferences (Room40)
Richard Chartier once again proves us that he’s the grand monk of the holy temple of drones. Simple yet insanely impactful. Less is more. Always.
Seigo Aoyama :: On The Drift (Audiobulb)
Darker strands mix with lightened pitter-patter tones that simply fade away. These unusually magnetic sonic traverses detail organic, nostalgic, and atmospheric forays that should be absorbed as a whole to even begin to capture its aural glow.
