Molécule – 60°43′ Nord (Deluxe Edition)

Molécule‘s 60°43′ Nord is the techno record that won’t die, and for good reason.  First released in 2015, the album was recorded on a fishing boat in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, and contains its rolling qualities as well as

Dan Hayhurst ~ Critter Party

Critter Party looks and sounds like a breakfast cereal ~ specifically, Crispy Critters (although a case could be made for Freakies as well).  It’s easy to imagine these eight tracks as little monsters, colorful and mischievous.  They bubble, they gurgle, they

Mouse on Mars ~ Lichter

Infinite Greyscale continues its silkscreen vinyl series with another suburb single-track effort, this one a 13-minute percussive creature from Mouse on Mars.  This series has proven an excellent outlet for new creative energies, as the demands of an album are removed,

Schoolhouse ~ Fade

Fade likes to swim in the deep end. At first, the music’s unprepared, because the young notes struggle to keep afloat as they desperately attempt to ride the choppy, electronic waters. Be it an act of bravery, daring, or just a

Brett Naucke ~ Executable Dreamtime

Executable Dreamtime is a duet between man and machine, in which each component acts as composer and curator.  Brett Naucke creates the patches, then stands back to watch what they will do, like a parent accompanying his children to the playground.  When

Various Artists ~ The Quietened Bunker

The album begins with the sound of a clock ~ perhaps the Doomsday Clock ~ and John Carpenter synths.  The world is about to end as the Russians and Americans fire their missiles at each other.  The air sirens sound,

Shimmer Crush ~ These Four Walls

The industrial music explosion of the late 20th century was followed by slow-growing tendrils, splinters and echoes.  Shimmer Crush‘s debut album is one of these.  One can hear the ghosts of her influences (Gridlock, Skinny Puppy) in these sounds, although These

okamotonoriaki ~ Happy Ending

okamotonoriaki is no longer a solo affair, as the Tokyo-based composer has invited some of his friends (Cuushe, Flica, Polar M and Chihei Hatakeyama) to contribute to his Happy Ending.  The album exists in a liminal state between ambient and electronic: bouncy
