Becs is perhaps the most widescreen and melodic of Fennesz’s albums so far. His approach has spawned an awful lot of imitators over the past few years, a sphere of influence that sometimes seems unacknowledged. With Becs he reminds us just how distinct his music is.

Results3385Thomash: Candomble
‘Candomble’ sounds like it was sourced from the organic sounds of Brazil, be it the rainforest tones of the title track itself or the low key street café vibe of ‘Calango Fumando Palha’, all harvested by Thomash and served up with a twist.

Rob Clouth: Clockwork Atom EP
Beautifully complex yet accessible melodies…a pretty fusion of Plaid, Autechre, Jon Hopkins and Amon Tobin. Fantastic stuff – more please. Stream clips of the EP on Inverted Audio.
Christian Löffler: Young Alaska
For all those new to his work who are fans of Traum, Kompakt and the likes of Rone, Max Cooper and the aforementioned ivory tinklers – this comes thoroughly recommended too.
Teebs: E s t a r a
With a reliance on tighter rhythmic structures than in previous projects, Teebs uses tempered whacks and low-end thumps to pin his production down somewhat making ‘E S T A R A’ feel more anchored and less wistful than his previous work.

Efdemin: Decay
Sollmann has neither changed his principles nor broken the continuity of his body of work with this album. Overall, it feels like a bifurcation. A necessary one.
Fort Romeau: Her Dream

Brett Naucke: Seed
This is an album of deep headphone music, a unique analysis of texture. It floats around ideas of sound art and ambient music but mixes these with scattered electronics and fragmented field recordings.

Dauwd: Kindlinn EP
Dauwd steps up his game with this EP, moving with ease from more broken rhythms to an ambiant-housey combination without abandoning what made him popular: those catchy, swarming pads and synthlines and that perfect taste in production. Everything is in its right place, emotional and sophisticated.
Mike Dehnert: Lichtbedingt
With this album, Dehnert demonstrates his consistency, switching with finesse from techno to housey patterns, finely sharpening his tunes – quietly delivering one of the best techno albums of the year so far.
