Tomoroh Hidari :: Oblivion Engine EP (Schematic Music Co.)
A behemoth in the field of crumbling experimental electronic music, Oblivion Engine inches its way to the top of our best releases of 2023.
Colin Dyer :: 47ram Negativ65 EP (Schematic Music Co.)
47ram Negativ65 is an ultra condensed collection of scattered melodic mayhem, acid shifts, and sandblasted technoid assemblages.

V/A :: Leekmatic LKMTC 22 (Schematic / Leek)
Solidifying their stamp on experimental soundscapes and shifting panoramas through the hands of unique sound sculptors, Leekmatic is a baffling assortment.
Fetcho :: Fetcho (Schematic Music Co.)
This one slipped by our radar earlier this year (May 2022)—Fetcho (aka Brandon Knocke) delivers a wide range of sonic delights and we’re back on track with his self-titled on Schematic Music Company. Busting through in-your-face electronics and polished braindance elements…
