Hexalyne :: Exivvaves (Point Source Electronic Arts)

Unterm Rad :: Unfinished Business (Point Source Electronic Arts)
Often paralleled among artists such as Richard Devine, Xanopticon, and Qebrus, the Chicago native tilts sound forms into a microcosm of glitch and mechanical gaps, exposing what is arguably the pinnacle of his discography.
V/A :: Artist Showcase – 4th Edition (Point Source Electronic Arts)
The Artist Showcase series offers a community of like-minded sonic sculptors a platform to present their enigmatic but perplexing structures for the world to interpret.
Zajwert :: Golem (Point Source Electronic Arts / ZOJ)
Nine tracks span around 40-minutes and the thorough sound vistas offer delicately shifting ambient-techno realms blending with pitter-patter glitch’n bleeps debris and braindance shards.
Dragon :: Sonance Manifold (Point Source Electronic Arts)
Pummeling percussive onslaughts, post-industrial glitch extracts, and condensed data processing seem to be the focal point, while Dragon’s persistent and futuristic audio/visual scope operates at the highest level.
Dragon :: Between Here and Nowhere (Adventurous Music)
Dragon (aka Peter Adjobia, founder of Ryu) continues to impact the experimental electronic scene, shattering ambient motifs with expansive noise constructs.
