Joel Tammik :: Kriiva (Väli) — [concise]
Estonia-based Joel Tammik’s Kriiva distills delicately woven electronics, natural atmospheres, and micro-detailed rhythms into a single drifting consciousness that feels like a lucid dream rendered in sound.
Saapato :: In Alaska (AKP Recordings) — [concise]
Born from an August 2023 residency with the Alaska State Park Service, Saapato’s In Alaska transforms field recordings of coast, forest, and ice into a […]
Wil Bolton :: Rusted in the Salt Air (Home Normal)
Rusted in the Salt Air is a deeply atmospheric sonic journey that blends natural field recordings from the windswept Suffolk coast with lush, slow-burning electronic textures created using vintage synthesizers and spring reverb. Inspired by the haunting landscapes of Orford Ness and the literary reflections in Sebald’s Rings of Saturn, the album evokes themes of decay, memory, and transformation through immersive soundscapes rich with birdsong, wave wash, and ghostly drones.
Takeshi Muto :: El Pato Electronico (Schematic)
El Pato Electronico presents a seamless, commanding, and dynamic collection; fusing the cutting-edge spirit of Takeshi Muto’s vast sonic landscape into an unyielding force of auditory abstraction.
An-Ting :: Lost Communications (Self Released)
Music for contemplating our winged companions who have given us so much inspiration, reminding us that in our dreams and meditations we all have wings to fly.

Fragile Peaks is a deeply engaging (in the sense of the quality of engagement being ‘deep’) slow burner, though that descriptor might misrepresent the intensity of a piece that, fire-wise, is more of a smoulder—a low-lit one at that.
Sun Rain :: Mea Culpa EP (Imaginary North)
Gentle layers of just a few ingredients are added to other related elements, augmenting each other to showcase a natural magic. These are dreamscapes for rest and recuperation, and I don’t see any error or wrongdoing in them at all.
Hollie Kenniff :: For Forever (Nettwerk / Imaginary North)
Ambient is like a river. You step into the flow and let the new waters ripple on past. Breathtaking ripples abound on this record from […]
