The Mellowtrons :: DUB da Beat EP (Self Released)

With DUB da Beat, a self-released four-track EP available through Bandcamp, Walker returns to a sound that feels both deeply rooted in his history and wonderfully untouched by time. Massive basslines rumble beneath a haze of dubwise echoes, warped acid squelches, and fractured rhythms, creating a woozy, late-night atmosphere that rewards sinking into rather than simply listening to

Marina Herlop :: Dja Dja (Self Released)

While continuing the legacy and wholly unique style introduced in Nekkuja and in 2022’s breakthrough Pripyat (both released on PAN), Dja Dja, her first self-released album, sees a much stronger architecture and development: almost double the length of its predecessors, the album is configured as an epic, and directly inspired by the monomyth of the hero’s journey.

​[2View] Nekomachi/no wonder • なるほど & tsubai/ilulissat (Perceptual Tapes)

These two releases make a particularly effective pairing. no wonder • なるほど explores musical memory, accumulated fragments, and the creative freedom that comes from working within constraints. ilulissat turns outward, drawing on the physical world and translating its impact into an abstract but emotionally direct sonic language. Both favor patience, intention, careful construction, and a willingness to let sounds develop beyond their initial identities.

Charlie May :: Trusted Farms (A Strangely Isolated Place)

Trusted Farms retains something of that freedom. It carries it into music that feels more physical, driven by rhythm, repetition and synthesizers with weight, friction and substance. Many parts were played live and barely edited. Lines are doubled, distorted, recorded again, sent through other machines. They remain recognizable. They keep some of their roughness. They breathe. Perhaps this is where the most beautiful part of the album lies.
