exm :: Solar (Touched Music) — [concise]
Solar blends characteristic brittle electronic textures with smooth, precisely crafted structures and tightly wound glitch elements.
In Loving Memory of Árni Grétar Jóhannesson :: Futuregrapher (December 6, 1983 — January 4, 2025)
As a global electronic music family, we come together in hopes that our words will do justice to honor the beautiful soul that was Árni Grétar Jóhannesson (Futuregrapher). Written by Anne Jackson with support by Mick Chillage.
Igloo Magazine :: Best of 2024
Highlighting hundreds of releases in 2024 (and allowing December to set in), we’ve compiled a list of our favorites along with links to their corresponding Igloo reviews and release pages. Since the lists are arranged alphabetically by artist—and a snapshot of tracks are featured in our Soundcloud playlist along with selected Bandcamp tracks and random artwork selections—there are, as usual, no winners or runners-up.
Tonik Ensemble :: Music Is Mass (Touched Music)
The atmosphere herein simply spills over non-existent—perhaps even floating—boundaries with a surplus of instrumental virtuosity, roughened textures, and vaporous brittle tones that time shift and alter before our own eyes.
Heogen :: Heogen (Touched Music)
Both Martin Boulton (aka Min-Y-Llan, Touched Music founder) and Jeroen Bax (aka exm) build incredibly surreal audio worlds. As their earlier releases were characterized as a “real demonstration of powerful synergy,” this eponymous release draws a recognizable pulse.
Inkipak :: Phokusd (Inkitrax)
Phokusd is a concentrated collection of smothered audio works detailing some of the finest experimental electronic music that doesn’t overstay its welcome and constantly exudes top-notch production values front to back.
Pentagrams Of Discordia :: Teleportation to Gliese12b (Sounds Of Discordia)
Fluttering beats dissolve within ambient ice sheets, blurred samples, found sounds, and expressive atmospheric shadows that lurk in the background, encapsulating the entire cosmos in a drifting musical mashup.
Yimino :: Twmpa (Touched Music)
Some may have given up dreaming, but not me—and three years later I’m more than happy to say that the patience paid off. Henry & Gerald take their rightful place in the studio and with an apparent love of Welsh mountains unleash Twmpa upon us. It’s the perfect mix and balance of classic Yimino and fresh new ideas that one might not have expected from the pair.
