Snowbeasts & Solypsis :: Extinction Burst (Component)
Despite a 2,500-mile distance and sprawling solo discographies, Snowbeasts and Solypsis operate here as if face-to-face—crushing boundaries, igniting audio wreckage, and forging bold new altars of sound.
Hexalyne :: Isoconicase (Noided Media)
If Richard Devine and Autechre trace similar constellations in the sonic firmament, Hexalyne orbits his own peculiar void—an architect of abrasive beauty, leading a procession of rhythmic contortion through the digital underworld.
Michael Valentine West :: Liquid architecture (Evel)
These works feel like sonic residue from a scorched reality—assembled gradually, layer upon layer, into contemplative yet fractured shapes. MVW crafts immersive, multidimensional pieces where evolving sound design breathes slowly, alternately swelling and dissipating, constructing only to deconstruct.
8cylinder :: Snapped Bones EP (Unmapped North) — [concise]
Brief by design, Snapped Bones doesn’t linger—it strikes, drills, and exits, leaving behind scorched circuits and a lasting imprint of mechanized destruction.
Keef Baker :: GFX (Self Released)
Keef Baker returns with GFX steeped in the spirit of classic IDM, a nod to both vintage audio aesthetics and the gritty charm of early graphics eras.
Cathode Ray Tube :: Canciones en la clave de Pelea (Condition Human) — [concise]
Something jagged and instinctive pulses through Cathode Ray Tube’s latest four-track transmission—just over thirty minutes of fractured rhythms and kinetic sputter.
vOLKER rAPP :: Phase IV (Cyclical Dreams) — [concise]
Phase IV is a concept-driven album that aligns sound with themes like memory, dislocation, perception, and digital identity. It transcends conventional structures and emphasizes sound textures, with minimalism reflecting sensory exploration.
Stone and Worship — Primož Bončina and Phil Maguire :: Listening Together At This Place, In This Moment
In experimental sound, collaboration often stems not from strategy but from shared sensibility. Such is the case with Stone and Worship, the compelling new duo release from Phil Maguire and Primož Bončina. Coming from gestural heavy guitar and electronic bass drone music respectively, the two bonded over a deep reverence for minimalism, physical space, and the ineffable power of sound. Their partnership is built as much on intuitive listening as on careful deliberation—a quiet resonance that became a mutual language, shaping Stone and Worship into a work of subtle force, where each frequency, pause, and vibration speaks volumes.
Marco Simioni :: Essence Through Approximation (Evel) — [concise]
The entire release unspools as a study in sonic erosion: warped forms blasted at their seams yet retaining an unshakable density—mysterious, broken, and fiercely intact.
Onepointwo :: Rec.Collapse (Astra Solaria)
Onepointwo delivers a powerful, boundary-defying release that captures the sound of systems breaking down and new ones emerging in their place. It’s fierce, future-facing, and absolutely worth your attention.
