Danny Scott Lane ~ How to Empty a Cup

This statement may seem strange, but How to Empty a Cup is really, really ambient.  By this we mean that the music is quintessential ambience, featuring flute and other soft instrumentation.  The tone is as delicate as a sugar wafer.  Children

*Press A* ~ Voidrun, Yuppie Psycho

Pentadrangle ~  Voidrun Voidrun is, without a doubt, one of the most enjoyable chiptune surprises of the year. It does what its MIDI-inspired kind of electronic does best: mash genres up into unique, new-sounding music. It’s got an old-school metallic

Mukqs ~ SD Biomix

When we imagine things like cyborgs and the integration of technology with biology we are usually continuing a long-running philosophical division between ‘natural’ and ‘artificial’, one we tend to exaggerate in the images of robotic arms and microchip-enhanced eyes. Arguably,

Michael Potter ~ Rain Song

Don’t judge this tape by its cover; the music is much more placid than the art indicates.  Some may make a connection to King Ghidorah, also identified as the beast from Revelation; but this is more about rain than the

Juri Seo ~ Respiri

Interrelation is at the heart of Juri Seo’s Respiri, the connective tissue that binds all those things we think of as separate or incompatible. Classical and avant-garde, simple and complex, warm and cold, tonal and atonal – the list goes

Black to Comm ~ Before After

Otto Solange ~ шон

If a turntablist album were to marry a hauntology album, the child might sound something like шон (Poles).  This is the previously hidden side of an artist normally known for making ambient-minded music under another name.  There’s a hint of Endtroducing
