Words about electronic & experimental music

Missqulater: They Rave Us (Central Processing Unit)The CPU label continues along its trajectory of championing the 90s braindance sound associated with the Rephlex label. The four cuts of...

Grown Folk: The Boat / Keep Few Near (Icee Hot) I really don’t know much at all about Grown Folk, but after stumbling onto one of these tracks I knew I had to have it. The originals...

Demdike Stare: Elemental (Modern Love) It’s telling that this whopping double-album from leftfield ambient duo Demdike Stare has been out nearly a year before I’ve taken to...

Brogan Bentley: Brogan Bentley EP (Leaving) I’ve been digging this EP from Brogan Bentley, an odd fusion of dance music and lo-fi bedroom production. It has enough of a swagger to...

Vladislav Delay: Espoo (Raster-Noton) “Olari,” the first track on this rather odd EP from Sasu Ripatti, starts off unassumingly enough with a sort of machine-gun like...

Squarepusher: Ufabulum (Warp) Tom Jenkinson earned his place in the upper echelons of electronic music in the mid 90s with a glut of spastic, near perfectly executed drum & bass albums...

Puresque: Leitmotiv (Tresor) I think everyone has at least one old really good friend… Someone you feel so comfortable with and know so well that even if years go by between visits,...

Jimmy Edgar: Majenta (Hotflush) Jimmy Edgar has never really gotten a fair shake in my opinion. He seems too goofy and pop-inclined for the serious heads, but he’s perhaps also too...
