Phil Struck: Klint

If LL.M.’s first three releases ploughed a more “regular”, club-ready furrow with some outstanding contributions from Berlin’s favourite Annanan, Phil Struck’s ‘Klint’ makes for a massive bend towards antimusic and concrète realms that won’t fail at surprising those who expected the Münster-via-Berlin based imprint to stick to the tried-and-tested 4/4 recipes.

Various Artists: Dawn Records Various Artists #1

After a string of boundary-pushing releases on both digital and 12″ formats, Parisian label Dawn Records deliver a polyamorous jumble of machine-based music for literally anyone keen on transcendental trips and off-the-leash audio deconstructivism.

Belisha Beacon: This Is Fine

Belisha Beacon’s ‘This Is Fine’ forgoes esoteric sampling and analogue fetishism to revel in the code and wires of its creation. Instead of descending into grain tinged nostalgia or tech’d up futurism, the five track set exists in the fundamental principles of computer music – using entry level software to live code an ever shifting tapestry of minimal techno.

Blood Room / Micromelancolié: Creek Trax

Always Human Tapes newest outing comes courtesy of a pair of likeminded genre-busters in the persons of Seagrave co-founder Blood Room and Polish experimentalist Micromelancolié. Avant-garde and ultimately daring, high up there with the best of leading-edge electronic music.

Basses Terres: Counting Pulsations

If you’ve heard Basses Terres’ excellent debut EP for BFDM, ‘A Darker Rain’, you’ve certainly noticed his lean for finespun atmospherics and full-on cinematic deep audio-scenarios. Yet more pared-down and essential, his second instalment for the Lyon-based imprint exalts some of the most transcending ambient we’ve had the chance to hear in quite a long time.

In Conversation with Erik Kowalski: Casino Versus Japan

If you thought that Boards Of Canada was everything… think again. Casino Versus Japan is back with an 80 track compilation of immersive guitar loops and blissed-out harmonies. We caught up with Erik Kowalski over Skype to discuss how Frozen Geometry came into existence and dissect his musical leanings.
