Experimental Electronic Music
Listening, I want the big fat flakes to fall from these dense ambient envelopes and rippling contours. Yet like the snow, these flakes of sound don’t fall, they just hover over the listener with a sense of unknowing dread. Moody isn’t even the half of it.
Through carefully tuned machines and dusty synthesizers, INIT unfolds gradually, with rising, undulating drones transforming the space around us.
Mood Studies encapsulates the transient, fragmented nature of existence, offering a surreal and meditative listening experience that feels both intimate and expansive—a must-listen for those who find beauty in imperfection.
There’s a meditative quality to Mind Fog, but not in a way that lulls you to sleep—more like guiding you through a lucid dream where each track is a different room in a strange, beautiful house.
What sets Wavecrushers apart from traditional ambient music is its immersive and dynamic nature—it’s too captivating to simply fade into the background.
Forgotten Worlds lives up to its name, blending the rich, hidden depths of synthesizers with the extraordinary realms they conjure. It beckons us to explore the enigmatic, untamed heartbeat of existence itself. With layers of complexity and an all-encompassing energy, these Forgotten Worlds are treasures meant to be rediscovered, time and time again.
The fluid, unhurried march of time—where each second blends seamlessly into the next, constantly shifting and evolving—creates the perfect backdrop for albums like Functional Gloss by Buffalo’s Matt Donatelli, under his Survey Channel project.
Less than a year after TON, a two-hour-and-a-half glitch mammoth that made it into Igloo’s Best of 2024 round-up, Özcan Saraç is back on Evel with Neural Generators of the Auditory Brainstem Response—and if TON already seemed daunting for its lengths and experimentation, Saraç’s seventh album ups the ante, clocking over 330 minutes divided into twenty-five movements.
All in all, this is an album that doesn’t fail to entertain those looking for interesting, leftfield electronica. The aesthetic of this LP very much matches its concept, and if you want to feel like you’re part of the labyrinth yourself, might as well try and do the one on the cover, only to realize after a little bit that it’s completely closed off and you’d feel as lost as you should.
