Occupied with sampled guitars, pianos and field recordings, crushed into granulated bits that serve as a spicy audio tortilla filling, with electronics and synthesizers dueling over the last bite, reinforcing a sense of a tectonic collision of cordial restlessness and soothing hypnotic states.

Robyrt Hecht :: Yskayan Knowledge (YUYAY)
The strictures of electro mean that individualism can be difficult to achieve. With Yskayan Knowledge, Hecht not only expresses himself in a unique manner, the Leipzig musician is proving that the sounds of frigid funk are wide and varied.
Mike Lazarev :: Sacred Tonalities (Past Inside the Present)
Sounding simultaneously natural and digital, Lazarev has expertly blended field recordings and atmospheres with his warm, synthesized compositions resulting in the feeling of one, fluid, organic whole rather than separate elements and layers fighting for space.
Bart Hawkins :: Entering the Axis Mundi (Spotted Peccary Music)
A circle begins and ultimately returns to the start, and you have gained all of the experience of the textures, and silence, sparking a spiritual awakening into the power of sound of the journey around the forms.
Bart Hawkins :: Bell’s Theorem (Self Released)
Hawkins elicits increasing clearly defined tones from his modular synth, with bright ambience and traces of an improvisatory concert of lofty circles in the air, like entangled particles dancing in their contemplative and transcendent harmonic existence.
Toh Imago :: Refuge (InFiné)
Across the album, Toh Imago finds inventive ways of opening a dialogue between nature and machine, both literally and metaphorically, creating a soundscape that both feels like and was created by the natural world…
Ossa :: Exit Language Translator (Schematic Music Co.)
Exit Language Translator finds itself standing alone as a beacon for others to locate; its mysterious yet cleverly soft distortions and vintage soundscapes are both surreal and serendipitous.
Ian Boddy :: Coil (DiN)
When you dive into these analogous time capsules, the soundscapes and soundtracks seamlessly come to life, as if only a few machines were massaged to create such audible treasures.
Parallel Worlds :: Plector (DiN)
Plector sees Parallel Worlds on his third solo mission with DiN, and once again encapsulates darker atmospheres, especially as the opening title-track showcases so well.
Braek :: Mutator EP (Colony Productions)
Its construction made from a Eurorack system and desktop synths, the opportunity to dive into these productions creates a dizzying array of sweet audio collages.
Fields We Found :: Distance (Seil)
The album flows in a crisp loop influenced and foggy slow motion ritual to repeat, for me it slows things down in an interesting way.
