Mike Lazarev :: Tarnished Tapes and Saturated Signals (Dronarivm)
Each track feels like an artifact—a fragment of a forgotten broadcast or the warped soundtrack to a dream you only half-remember upon waking.
Nublo Roboten :: Un Silencio Pesado (Kernkrach)
As ever, Kernkrach have unearthed an artist of enviable talent. El Pesado Silencio is an album that illustrates Nublo Roboten’s range and style, contemporary synth-pop that is produced with a sureness of expression and a deftness of touch.
Oberlin :: Ten More Dreamwebs (Self Released) — [concise]
Though built from machines, the soundworld pulses with something strangely tender, as if translated directly from a dream-state—cinematic, organic, and eerily intimate, flowing with a quiet, uncanny grace.
Lia Bosch :: Ever Expanding (13/Silentes)
There are no narrative lines or recognizable formal progressions; instead, what emerges is a constellation of minimal sonic events, arranged according to a non-linear logic, lacking both center and conclusion. In this evolving geography, sound behaves like living matter: it surfaces, withdraws, duplicates, never settling.
secret getii :: xochicuicatl EP (Appendix.files)
The entire suite is a seamless vapor trail—translucent, immersive, and exquisitely understated. xochicuicatl is a terrain of micro-moments and textured silences, a meditative odyssey that rewards every minute of attention.
V/A :: Unexplained Sounds 3.0 (Unexplained Sounds Group)
Unexplained Sounds 3.0 is a bold statement. A hauntingly beautiful homage to the legacy of the Clicks & Cuts era, this compilation highlights past innovation with future possibility, unraveling micro-rhythmic mysteries and glitch-born textures in ways both cerebral and emotionally resonant.
Alessandro Barbanera :: In Darkness Let Me Dwell (Owl Totem)
An epic imaginary soundtrack for a fanciful film noir. In a dreamlike and nocturnal atmosphere, filled with rain and decaying sounds, In Darkness Let Me Dwell—available on Owl Totem, a “dark vibes” division of Dronarivm Records—deconstructs, reworks and wants to pay homage to the imagery and clichés of cinema noir.
Fields We Found :: Resolve / Relate 01 (quiet details)
This sonic exploration series is the product of many durational and deep-listening sessions, unfolding gradually over time and in constant flux, texturally and spatially3made to take your time with and see how your experience shifts across multiple listens.
Ben McElroy :: Elkwort (laaps)
Centered on extended drones and relaxed, repetitive acoustic motifs that gracefully interact within a consonant sonic space, inviting the listener to reconnect with a deep sense of awareness and spiritual freedom.
Aidan Baker :: & You Still Fall In (Gizeh)
Known for his prolific output and textural sensitivity, Baker delivers one of his most resonant and affecting works to date—a slow-burning, immersive experience that quietly commands attention.
