Errorgrid: A Darker Sound of a Present Future
LA’s industrial-minded Errorgrid label launched in May, smack in the middle of the pandemic and an economic meltdown. In one sense, this was horrible timing, but in another, it’s just perfect. Billed as “a darker sound of a present future,” the label’s

Fatwires ~ The wicked Path
Yet another left turn for bassist John Eckhardt, The wicked Path once again teaches us to drop our prior expectations. We never expected to encounter a drum ‘n’ (real) bass album from the artist, although it makes perfect sense. Recording as Fatwires, he’s

Brett Naucke ~ EMS Hallucinations
Total absorption into the work. Complete dedication to a piece of art to the point of self-alienation. That is how the novelist Gustave Flaubert wrote about “artistic hallucination”, when the world begins to double, to reproduce itself before a perception

Polygrim ~ Colorspacious
Polygrim (Ukrainian artist Volodymyr Dzitsiuk) is fascinated with color. Everything about his music reflects the spectrum, from album art to video work to the music. Colorspacious is a synaesthetic journey that may spark the mind to produce shapes and shades
