Umor Rex ~ March Batch
Moody soundscapes, crisp electronics, suspense film synth and layered voice: the four artists in Umor Rex’s March Batch might not attend the same parties, but they are united here by date and design. This may be the label’s best batch

ACL 2016: Top Ten Electronic
The electronic section is where we find the beats, but they’re not always for dancing; in fact, none of these albums is a straightforward club set. Instead, these artists use beats as a framework on which to hang their wildest
