Stitxhes :: Lost In Translation EP (Detroit Underground)
Just as quickly as we’re able to visualize Stitxhes’ brooding panoramas, they vanish into thin air with only a few aftershocks to be felt afterwards. Powerful and engaged.
Somaticae :: Présent Perpétuel EP (3OP)
All short pieces and utterly to the point, these brief soundscapes tend to levitate across a broad sonic spectrum where punchy percussive jolts and stabbing rhythms unfold at multiple angles.
Meemo Comma :: Loverboy (Planet Mu)
Loverboy, sees the artist pivot from the experimental back-catalog and dive-deep into a fully-fledged euphoria of bass’n breaks. Perhaps to describe in one word: Energy.

Myoptik :: Eat At The Dining Table of the Vibrating Sting (Pingdiscs)
There’s something magnetic, somehow fully charged, and buzzing here. Eight tracks of densely layered electronics and crunchy noises wrapping rhythmic distortion courtesy of the ever-talented Myoptik (aka Richard Wilkes).
