Ashwood Shepard ~ Taiwanese Slipper Mafia
Put the helmets on and gear up for the eclectic, electronically-minded Taiwanese Slipper Mafia. “Shirin Market” revs up our Asian adventure. Pretty soon, 20 mph makes way for 60 mph. Sung samples and fiery percussive flavors lap up the road markings, devouring the white lines

Crypto Tropic ~ S/T
In an interview with A Closer Listen‘s Nayt Keane, Le Cabanon Records expressed that its intention is “to attract the curiosity of the auditors.” The latest album from the French label does exactly that; Crypto Tropic is the label’s most mysterious offering

M.E.S.H. ~ Piteous Gate
Last year’s Scythians EP established Jamie Whipple (M.E.S.H.) as a force to be reckoned with. Berliners were already aware, thanks to the creative musical nights of the Janus collective; but with Piteous Gate, M.E.S.H.’s influence is now primed to go global. While most of

Ryan Huber ~ Astor
If this album sounds futuristic, it’s for good reason; it was recorded this summer, and released in late spring. Yes, Ryan Huber has managed to crack the space-time continuum! Astor is also evidence of a new direction for the artist (also known as

OKADA ~ Impermanence (Plus Video Premiere!)
In the past, the music of OKADA has consistently flirted with rosy, sentimental vibes and ever-so-sweet, innocuous ambient / electronic love affairs. He has mixed the rose of romance with the thorny underside of lost love, boyfriend/girlfriend trouble and the very painful

W00DY ~ RNBW
As colorful as the rainbow of the title, RNBW is a joyous clash of genres: dance, drone, ethereal, industrial, and even noise. Refreshingly original, this debut full-length does much to reflect its inspiration: “the full spectrum of who we are.” Modern associations

Mai Mai Mai ~ Πέτρα (Petra)
Last year, we reviewed Delta, the follow-up to Theta; Πέτρα is an appendix to a trilogy that will end with next year’s Φ. Mai Mai Mai is evolving as rapidly as the protagonist of Splice, and each installment has grown more ominous. We like where this

Le Millipede ~ S/T
Le Millipede is one man (Mathias Götz), but as seen in the studio version of the “Happy Planet Index” video, he’s got plenty of friends. With dozens of instruments to incorporate, the more the merrier. Seeing this colorful array (including harmonium,
