Markus Guentner :: Black Dahlia (Affin)
Black Dahlia is a relentless sonic departure and nuanced droning record of ominous, ecstatic and sublime fractures that will certainly appear among best albums of the year for lovers of adventurous music with ascending spiritual motifs.
Virus2020 :: A frog a gun and a sad man (Unexplained Sounds Group)
The result is more cryptic and hermetic than the previous release with a vast palette of aleatoric sound manipulations and sensient immersion in rituals taken from everyday life.
Rontronik :: Zero Nine (Tygr Rawwk Rcrds)
Rontronik’s taste for noisy textures and atmospheric shines on Zero Nine. Although in terms of composition, the album runs smoothly, its production is solid enough to demonstrate a good sense of timbre, and the sound palette he chooses to highlight is astounding.
Wil Bolton :: South of the Lake (quiet details)
Warmly recommended for those who are into textural, timbral, sculpted, and discreetly melodic minimal ambient works forged by Harold Budd, Robert Rich, Vidna Obmana, and […]
Everyday Dust :: Overtones (Dustopian Frequencies)
The bell has sounded and the sharp attack of that first clang belies the long decay as it drifts across time.
KOKUM :: Obscured Instinct and the pale Folklore (Eighth Tower)
Obscured Instinct and the pale Folklore is a cavernous, hymnic, and drone collection with incantatory voices and weird experimentalism.
Drifting In Silence | w-berg :: North Sea (Labile)
North Sea is renewed with musically rich and engaging synthedelic experiences surrounded by sci-fi dystopian conceptual backgrounds and ecological-minded aspirations.
Lara Jones :: Dome (Lo Recordings)
Followers of sonic miniatures and impressionist contemplative ambient escapism from Lee Hannah, The Green Kingdom, Omni Garden, Yoshimura, and noda yûki should take note. Minimal […]
Francis Gri :: Svanire (Self Released)
Svanire is a delicate atmospheric album, a quite recommended experience for those who cultivate this taste of Zen in their own existence; a musical window to restore the soul with delicate harmonies. Sound therapy of bitter sweet melancholia to enlighten the heart.
Henrik Meierkord :: MÖRK (Audiobulb)
MÖRK—which means darkness in Swedish—is a vertiginous and spiritually enthralling dive in deep bass cello tones, minimally improvised guitar sequences, long sweeping electronic sounds, and hypnotic loops.
