Francisco Meirino ~ An Extended Meaning for Something Meaningless
Francisco Meirino is the composer formerly known as phroq; in the past two decades, he’s released over a hundred solo and collaborative ventures. After such achievements, most performers would be content to rest on their laurels. Not so Meirino, whose new

Emanuele de Raymondi ~ Ultimo Domicilio
The work of Italian composer Emanuele de Raymondi lands in the juncture between drone, electronic and modern composition. Ultimo Domicilio (Last Domicile) is a work that one yearns to dissect, taking the original tracks and laying them side by side to see where

Nuclear Whale ~ The Looming Machine
Jonathan Ridley’s “secular apocalypse” comes to life on the cover, bursting with color and menace, so beautiful that one can’t look away. Two witnesses, perhaps from the Book of Revelation, stare placidly at the swirl of disjointed appendages. It’s too

Rafael Anton Irisarri ~ The Unintentional Sea

BJ Nilsen ~ Eye of the Microphone
Does a field recording have to sound like its subject in order to be authentic? BJ Nilsen ponders this question and concludes that “a pure field recording is not the most accurate representation of a place”. As an artist-in-residency in London, he

Nonima & Dissolved ~ Macro Flinching
The follow-up to Foil Splinters finds Nonima (Tam Ferrans) and Dissolved (Paul Daniels) continuing to engage in IDM/industrial exercises, providing brain food for the dance floor. The artists are close enough in timbre to co-exist, trading tracks throughout the course of the album and meeting

Various Artists ~ Spring EP
The disconnection between the hemispheres becomes even more apparent with Feral Media’s Spring EP, the follow-up to August’s Winter EP. In New York, we’ve just experienced the first frost, so talk of spring seems premature, until one realizes that it’s spring in Australia
