Nocow: Ledyanoy Album

Stylistically complex albums can be difficult to pull off.

After making quite a splash with the widely praised inaugural transmission of the T.O.K.Y.O series, released via his own eponymous imprint two years ago, mysterious producer S.O.N.S is back with the just as massive ‘Shinjuku One Night Stand’ – a six-track double pack larded with acidic salvos, augmented jungle moves and irruptive laser-battle gunnery.

With Elias Landberg and Gustaf Wallnerstrom fine techno output over the years, expectations have been set high for Skudge’s follow up to their debut album ‘Phantom’. Executed with clinical precision, ‘Balancing Point’ feels almost effortless in its excellence.

Convextion: 2845

Just as its retro science fiction cover art suggests, “2845” is all about timeless space music. Convextion’s first LP in a decade is the soundscape of a journey through the final frontier, and one that highlights Gerard Hanson’s effortless blending of organic and mechanic sounds from above.

Ossia: Control / Information / Version

Running several labels like FuckPunk, No Corner and Peng Sound whilst making for an essential cog of the Young Echo crew alongside Jabu, Vessel, Ishan Sound et al, the Brizzle-based producer follows up to his rather underrated debut solo outing on Blackest Ever Black with a gilt-edged double slice for Gizmo’s Berceuse Heroique imprint.
