Lakker ~ Struggle & Emerge
Successful concept albums are difficult to pull off, but the new album from Berlin’s Lakker beats the odds. The scope is ambitious: the relationship between the Dutch and water. The sources are original: only vintage field recordings and TV and radio broadcasts

IXTAB ~ Alea
IXTAB’s music is a set of fangs in prime condition, ready and waiting to sink deeply into the raw flesh of its prey, satiating its hunger as it does so. Techno music is often dark, but Alea‘s dark colouring conceals an interesting
