Various Artists: Moon Rock Volume 4

Moon Rock Volume 4 is possibly the best chill out compilation you can get that is also committed to vinyl. Eternally comfortable to just slip into, it befits chilly early mornings as much as it does a hazy afternoon.

Essential Guide: Intonal Festival 2017

Held at Inkonst and Inter Arts Center in Malmö from 27 to 30 April 2017, Intonal Festival is slowly but surely budding into a high-level fixture in the narrow market of quality off-season electronic music festivals. Here’s our recap of the essential acts and performances you should not miss.

Ashan: Air & Ether

Meditative and intensely immersive, solar and vibrant, Ashan’s debut for Elestial Sound – ‘Air & Ether’ – couldn’t be more aptly-named with its vaporous complexions and sedative attraction, casting a spell on you the second you press play. Just as spirited and enchanting on play as it is remains inspiring and haunting once the sound is off.

The Long Now: An Ode to Architectural and Sonic Magnitude

This is our report of “The Long Now” hosted at Kraftwerk Berlin, a place for the enduring present, comprising over thirty hours of concerts, audio-visual installations and live electronic performances, which the public are invited to experience in many ways: be it listening, watching or even sleeping to them.

Leandro Fresco & Rafael Anton Irisarri: La Equidistancia

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.

Rebellion in Music: Galaxian talks up his new EP for Foul-Up

Eager to find out more about Galaxian’s unique vision and new Blowback EP on Foul-Up, we sat back with Glasgow-based producer Mark Kastner to discuss his views on politics and society, art of secretiveness and how music can change things from within. Stream the breaks-heavy ‘Forget About It’ within.

Varg: Nordic Flora Series Pt.3: Gore-Tex City

Nordic Flora Series Pt.3: Gore-Tex City is one of Varg’s most approachable albums to date, yet, it never fails to sound as genuine as you could expect. Given the fact the record is more than seventy minutes long, it is quite an achievement.

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.
