Speaking of cults, it’s not wrong to say there’s always been one around a certain Scottish duo, and if you’ve been missing them then I’m pretty sure this lot may have done away with them, drunk their blood and benefitted from the proceedings.

Iris Ipsum :: Pattern Language (Touched Music)
With a first audition, what jumps out most is the meticulous attention that appears to be given to drum patterns across the board. Individual measures frequently singled out and attentively modulated to inject a great deal of interest into the proceedings.
Legiac :: Banisteriopsis Caapi (Touched Music / Phainomena)
I half knew what to expect, but was also pleasantly surprised as some of the most unsettling aspects of their work are placed right in your field of view; challenging sounds and structures…
FSOLdigital presents :: Mind Maps 4 (Touched Music)
Yage have taken a great bunch of pieces and turned them into something even more incredible, while scattering their own works (under the guise of FSOL) here and there.
V/A :: Touched By Silence (#2) (Touched Music)
Think of all of the most highly regarded compilations of this ilk, and I think you will find fewer with such a rich and diverse selection of artists, coming together to deliver a tour de force of ambient.
Inkipak :: Slip (Touched Music)
The same core feeling is still there, but even in this short time, it’s apparent that skills have been built on, ideas have been nurtured, and flourishes added to round off what was already very enjoyable.
Dialed :: Dials And Tribulations (Touched Music)
I’m more than happy to see an entire album of original works and it’s pretty much what I expect—quality production and well thought-out tracks that sound full and lush.
Anders Ilar :: Light & Shadow (Touched Music)
Marking twenty years since the release of Everdom, their experience in tech, minimal, and glitch shines through, staying true to form but undoubtedly pushing the boundaries with frequent outbursts of clever electronica.

It’s really great to see and hear Touched Music giving some of these artists another new home, and whilst it’s part of a ten year anniversary and bringing back feelings and artists I had love for more 20 years ago when I was first discovering them.
