The artist’s ability to regulate and crunch such modular mayhem amplifies the pummeling sound-scraping detail of its ten tracks, which are scorched to no end by the overpowering combination of noise and distinct machine rhythms.

Homemade Weapons & Voidloss :: Bloodlillies In The Moonlight EP (Onset Audio)
Two talented sound sculptors burst through harder-edged beats, bass, and distortion with a potent collection of sound design structures and dark electronics.
Lucus :: Vectorising (Adventurous Music)
Vectorising continually draws from looping noises until nothing is left but dust. The amount of detail, found sounds, and auditory erosion is absolutely hypnotizing front to back.
Menou & Paolo Calabrese :: st2m EP (A Silent Place)
Before the halfway mark, you get some noise that sounds like it’s derived from scraping a metal sheet on the floor, which may sound astoundingly unpleasant when I frame it that way, but becomes much more fitting and digestible when it is so quiet in this piece.
V/A :: Future Transmissions: Meat Beat Manifesto — Remix Series (eMERGENCY heARTS)
More than just a stopgap to chew on while awaiting a new studio album, Future Transmissions stands as an absorbing compilation that perfectly showcases how the band sounds today, proving beyond doubt that it has definitely not lost its special touch.
Greystar :: Playgrounds: Recess (Self Released)
playgrounds: recess by Greystar features a variety of braindance, bass, shattered percussion, and punctuated breaks and is a massive 17-track collection that stretches into numerous sonic trajectories.
Red Brut :: Spontaneous sound collage
On Bare Ground is a sculptural work blending its lo-fi with haunting melodies, field recordings, and ethereal soundscapes. Uncompromising in its approach, the album evokes the echoes of experimental music from a spectrum that ranges from dark bedroom pop to rhythmic noise, crafting a cloudy and dreamlike atmosphere.
Rafael Anton Irisarri :: FAÇADISMS (Black Knoll Editions)
An ethereal ambient record that incorporates live instrumentation as well, more notably in the form of orchestral accompaniments with guitar workouts splattered throughout—and some occasional vocals too.
The Off-Keytchen :: The lady from New York (Kaczynski Editions – Pulsioni Oblique)
Considering the density of each piece, The lady from New York is a surreal, disjointed, yet perplexing album that merits repeated listening to even begin scratching its multi-layered surfaces.
