Poladroïd :: Roentgenizdat (Roulette Rekordz)
Poladroïd packs eight lean, muscular tracks with throbbing bass, fat drum-machine punch and just enough EBM grit to keep the whole thing moving.

Artificial Island :: Another World (Remastered) (Self Released)
Across Another World, Artificial Island keep things measured and textural, allowing minute sounds, gentle rhythms and shifting layers to carry much of the album’s character.
Arsonist Recorder & Sigma_ALgebra :: Arkada #005 split EP (Arkada)
Six tracks, no wasted motion. ARKADA005 doesn’t revive electro; it plugs it back in, turns the voltage up, and lets the machine speak for itself.
mico nonet :: The Cardboard Falcon (Ninevolt Labs)
The Cardboard Falcon is a profoundly vibrant, impressionistic, cinematic, slow-moving, and melodically oriented neoclassical album that will lead the listener to a state of serenity and contemplation.
25 Years of Igloo Magazine (Evel / Igloo Trax)
This sprawling, sandblasted opus brings together a stellar constellation of avant-garde visionaries—Meat Beat Manifesto, Proswell, Cathode Ray Tube, AZ-Rotator, Rontronik, ΠΕΡΑ ΣΤΑ ΟΡΗ, Scape One, Roel Funcken, Deru, Kindohm, Vytear, and Robert Logan—each sculpting sound into surreal, shimmering form.
FeLid :: Magic Hour (ato.archives)
Magic Hour is both accessible and deeply experimental with its mutant ambient approach. The sonic palette employs clicks and clacks, echoes, mechanical whirs, lost terrestrial train whistles, melodic forms, shattering forms, and human murmurs, sometimes slowing or speeding up local fields to gain an emotional edge.
Chit Chat with Ben Stokes of Dimensional Holofonic Sound
A veteran of groundbreaking music-video and visual collaborations, Ben Stokes puts his most personal stamp on Dimensional Holophonic Sound (DHS), his singular project blending acid electronics, old-school analog imagery, and experimental video production. Simultaneously, Stokes has built a distinctive career at the intersection of sound, art, technology, and visuals.
Five questions with Somewherecold Records
From its roots as a music blog to a fiercely independent label built around physical releases, Somewherecold Records has grown from Jason Lamoreaux’s love of experimental music into a deeply personal effort to give artists and their work something lasting to hold onto.
Signal_Black :: Disruptive Event (Evel)
Rather than treating glitch as surface decoration, Signal_Black builds an entire skeletal language around it. What emerges is a unified, tightly constructed collection of focused (yet splintered) electronics—one that pushes exploratory sound forward through distortion, fragmentation, and a distinctly futuristic sense of movement.
WE FORFEIT :: Radio Relativa #55
More techno from Bradley Strider, Death in Vegas, and Ryan James Ford with all three delivering their own expression of the sound with savage results. We have electro with Cultivated Electronics, To Pikap and Shipwrec, and breaks with DjRum and Withhold. Two hours of nonsensical anecdotes and lots of great music.
Multiplex :: Axial Opposition (People Can Listen)
That exchange between past and present is central to Axial Opposition. Classic Multiplex structures remain recognizable, yet the melodic synthesis gives them renewed dimension, allowing vintage electronic language to exist alongside contemporary detail.
Winter Back :: Headphone Beats 2025-2026 (SoundSupply_Service)
What makes Headphone Beats 2025–2026 so exciting is that it never settles into its own language. Every time you think you’ve identified the rules, it quietly moves the goalposts. Genres are treated less as destinations than as raw materials: broken apart, stretched, folded, obscured and rebuilt into strange new functional objects.
OBA :: OBA (Schwarz Neon Licht)
Power up the hi-fi and get your favorite seventies era Sci-Fi laserdisc movie cued up on your vintage home entertainment system, turn the volume down on the film, and turn up the volume on OBA to let them provide the soundtrack.
[2View] Xurba :: DFTSKZ-V333 & The Dexadream EP’s (Electric Studios)
The Dexadream seems to soar hundreds of miles above our atmosphere, while DFTSKZ-V333 drifts in and out of downtempo electronic bubbles of sound and space, funk, and textural, beat-laden wonders. Across both releases, Xurba folds left-field elements into a language entirely his own, shaping sound into something hazy, distant, and quietly otherworldly.
Ekzon :: Ambient Series Volume 2 (Self Released)
In a world increasingly obsessed with acceleration, Ekzon offers something altogether more radical—the opportunity to pause, listen, and feel the architecture of the moment dissolve gently into light.
Lamasz & Grandbruit :: Fictions (Past Inside the Present)
Expanding rather than merging the recognized individual styles of each, Fictions results in a chronostatic set of pieces with error honored as a hidden intention (see Eno’s Oblique Strategies) via analog processes, while holding to melodic virtues and economy of means.
