Wata Igarashi – Agartha – Kompakt
Sounding like all the circuits connecting future and past have been plugged in together Wata Igarashi’s amazing music startles and stuns. You can sense the pulse of influences coursing here and there as certain modulations shimmer across the spectrum but these are fleeting moments in this extraordinary journey through forward motion. Numbers like Floating Against…

Tobias Thomas – Connecting The Dots – Kompakt
Beginning with Marcus Schmickler’s unearthly Particle/Matter is sure-fire way of grabbing attention, sonic or otherwise. Tobias Thomas’s mix then proceeds to contact and connect all in its path as sounds from the future, occasional the past, are transporting into an emotionally changed journey into sight, tone and timbre. Have to say that the feeling compacted…

Serenade pulses with a breezy energy that lifts the senses skyward as pointed piano smoulders, producing hints of yearning in amongst the probing drums and questioning voiceover. Is the word ethereal correct…

Terranova – Let It Fail feat. Sifa & Ivory – Kompakt
Like a breath of freshly charged air Let It Fail contradicts any negativity with the promise of moving forwards. The arrangement bustles with ideas each igniting the next as shuffling, funky rhythms punctuate teasingly, repetitive stabs amide the warm glow of atmospheric pads. Totalling in the region of eight minutes this comfortably reinvigorates and refreshes…

Kenneth James Gibson – In The Fields Of Nothing – KOMPAKT
Sometimes the depth reached for by Kenneth James Gibson tearing fields of vision is almost too much to fathom. Sometimes to exhilarating to feel safe with. This new album starts and ends with the feeling that something else has just happened. Beyond that the poignant, perfect piano of single Far From Home says more in…

Aladdin Girls in Uniform Versatile How could you not love this. Yes it’s about ‘Girls in Uniform’ but please put that preconception down and enjoy what is a playfully amusing lyric, although pitched over spikey, punk attitude that sees racing beats fight against punchy guitar and bass to produce a gloriously edgy, yet exhilarating experience.…
