HOLOVR: Trace Realm EP

Jimmy Billingham’s new effort ‘Trace Realm‘ is just as much of an introspective journey as it offers more expressive, outgoing combinations. Brushing a vibrant mosaic brimming with chopped-up keyboard chords and volatile acid-drenched arpeggios, the Rephlex vibe is here and banging, summoning the ghosts of Bochum Welt and Dave Monolith without striking the old-school-savvy pose.

Tim Hecker On Love Streams

The ambient mastermind sheds light on his new album “Love Streams”, plus his teen days’ favourite record labels, PhD, philosophical beliefs and the ravages of click-bait journalism.

Tim Hecker: Love Streams

Whether it’s a result of people’s tastes becoming more diverse in the wake of file sharing, or decades of extreme music lowering the threshold of what’s considered ‘a bit too weird’, the outcome is clear. Albums such as Love Streams no longer have to be judged solely by the niche standards of experimental music.

D.K.: Island Of Dreams

Whilst a major part of the current retro-driven house and electronica sometimes feels like losing itself in vain convolutions, D.K.’s sound certainly offers a way finer rethink of the well-tried recipes he gets to toy with.

Ondo Fudd: Blue Dot

Flippant as it sounds, Seaton’s accomplishment in production keeps on growing to the extent where every release now comes with a “must have” status.

Ewan Jansen: Lost Embers EP

It happens that a release strikes such a sensitive chord that it makes you want to devour the whole artist’s catalogue in a row but more rarely does it make up for lost time so impressively.

Anenon: Petrol

Anenon, hailer of LA, lover of jazz, proportionate improviser and dedicated musician has brought out his third effort – ‘Petrol’, a remarkably poignant and daringly experimental album.

William Basinski: ‘A Shadow In Time’ at Union Chapel

Just like many other musicians who defiantly do things their own way, William Basinski clearly loves the music he makes, which is abstract enough to be utterly malleable in its interpretation or profundity, a unique experience for each listener. He is kind of a rockstar.

Sinner DC: MEG/CDG

Minus the overbearing concept surrounding it, MEG / CDG presents itself as a solid if not spectacular point of continuation in Sinner DC’s fairly extensive discography.
