Nebulo - Artefact CD (Hymen Y787)

Nebulo's third album is one of change. A concept album of some sort, it seems to be built on a lot of field recordings and found sounds, and while being relatively varied, as a much stronger atmospheric emphasis than its predecessors. Almost gone are the electronic tones and beats, replaced by some gritty statics, distant voices and discordant, subdued melodies. This might not be the easiest Nebulo CD to get into, but its rough edge bring in depth and interest what they might take off the instant gratification.

Dryft - Ventricle mp3 (n5md catmd181)

Eight years after its last EP on the late Component Records, Mike Cadoo (of Gridlock and Bitcrush fame) brings back to life his Dryft project, which potentially the closest possible thing to a Gridlock continuation. Free of the shoegazing guitars and vocals of Bitcrush, we're presented here with something which, though considerably lusher and less dry than past Dryft releases, quickly progresses towards the kind of syncopated electronic and subdued drum'n'bass which we had heard in the first Dryft releases and late-era Gridlock. Even the artwork reminds of the first, electronic years of N5md, and this might very well be the long-awaited release which will appease both fans of Gridlock and those of you who longed for a return to purely electronic music from this label. Recommended.

Proem - Enough Conflict mp3 (n5md catmd179)

Last time we had heard (of) Proem, it was for a rather dark and atmospheric trip through his "Till There's No Breath" album on Nonresponse. His return to N5md is a completely different affair, as this "Enough Conflict" is a much more upbeat, sunny and melodic story. Almost all the glitches and drones have been put to side, replaced by long melodic beat-driven tracks. It's quite loungy at times, sometimes bordering on easy-listening, but manages to convey the same kind of uplifting mood that his to be found on almost all the N5md releases at the moment. A very different brand of Proem.

Tzolk'in - Tonatiuh CD (Ant Zen act240)

Now available from the Ad Noiseam online store:

Tzolk'in - Tonatiuh CD (Ant Zen act240)

Third album for Tzolk'in, the collaboration between Flint Glass and Empusae, this new CD sees the duo come up with more orchestral and lushier tracks than on its predecessors. Less ambient, but also considerably less industrial, "Tonatiuh" sounds to me as a more crafted and detailled album, with stronger instrumentations and percussions which, even though they still carry the industrial / electronica touch of both projects, are less on the foreground and leave more space for the rest of the music to breathe. A strong album all throughout.

Macka - Bricksaw / Elefont mp3 (Amenorea accm001)

This two tracker by Macka is the first release on Accomodus, the "non-free pendant to the czech netlabel Amenorea. For their jump in the competitive side of the music business, these guys come up here with a rather heavy and dark twisted kind of dubstep, filled to the brim with influences and atmospheres from dark d'n'b and breakcore. While everything stays relatively straight and slow (most of all with the down-tempo-ish "Elefont"), this material has an oppressive, rigid and dark side which makes it go beyond the boundaries of dubstep, in my opinion. Pleasant, and quite dancefloor-friendly.

Ultra Milkmaids - Medecine 12" (Ant Zen act238)

After quite a long pause, Ultra Milkmaids are back, and what a come-back. First, it's on vinyl (extra points for this). Then, instead of going all experimental as they had done in the past, the french duo combines here some very melodic, almost post-rocky accoustic melodies with their long, charming drones and little glitches. A smooth, melancholic LP with a much more human nature than what the abstract cover artwork might lead to believe, and a very welcome initiative.

Now available from the Ad Noiseam online store:

Kraken - Strop CD (Raubbau raub-010)

A bit less spooky and dark in an industrial way than their past albums for Spectre, the new album by the Kraken duo is a festival of very long drones, repeatitive tones and sparse samples, and therefore can be somewhat linked to Law-Rah Collective's last year's release on Raubbau. A truely atmospheric album, and still somber enough to induce nightmares in unexpecting audiences, here's a well done, if not low-key album of deep, slightly rugged ambiences.

Dj Madd & Matt U - Running Man 2x12" (Blackbox BLACKBOX004)

Interesting and good sounding encounter between two relatively low-profile / underrated veterans of the british dubstep scene. DJ Madd (of Boka fame) and Matt-U both come up with one solo track, one written together, and the whole thing is crowned by a track by Matt-U together with the unmissable Headhunter. All in all, this is a quite original sounding double EP, which keeps the sounds of classic dubstep close to its heart, but use them with structures and arrangement which are often closer to very slow garage or techno. Still a lot heavier than most "post" dubstep, cleaner and somewhat more direct, this "Running Man" has a strong potential, but is definitely something different for this scene.

Mono-Amine - Do Not Bend CD (Ant Zen act247)

From times to times, even labels with a wide horizon fall back on what they are known for doing most or best, and release something which fits what people have learned to expect, without bringing much new sounds to the table. This is the case with this new album by Holland's Mono-Amine on Ant-Zen. It's heavy, distorted, rhythmic, industrial, club-oriented and, at that point, it's pretty obvious that it walks the exact same path as Sonar, Converter, Synapscape and so on (with an emphasis on the first). Distorted heavy beats for rhythmic industrial fans who know what they want and how they want it. "Do not bend", and does not blend.

Taz Buckfaster - Recovery / Headlock 12" (Subway SUBWAY 014)

Gritty and scraping new two tracker from Taz Buckfaster, on the constantly quality-delivering subway. Slower and not as overwhelmingly hard as the rcent Reso & Vent record on this label, "Recovery" is still heavy and noisy enough to compare with any huge dubstep tune of the moment. On the B side, "Headlock" is a bit more balanced and closer to past Taz Buckfaster releases, but still displays its "brostep" label proudly. A very efficient DJ tool, delivering everything what we could expect and wish for.

Moogulator - The Digital Anatomist Project mp3 (Aentitainment aent008)

First CD by this follow-up project to Consequence, and quite an ambitious one. Blubby and ever changing, the whole thing was at times clearly influenced by early Warp releases, but taps constantly from the industrial sound, resulting in a somewhat percussive and highly complex avalanche of beats and tones. Not the most accessible of releases, this "digital anatomist project" is still an interesting one, for the amount of details, tracks and changes show that a lot of care has been put in this CD. Quite the hard IDM trip.

Eleventh year and eighth album for the italian band TMK (sometimes standing for "Thee Maldoror Kollective", here for "Textbook of Modern Karate" with a dark and gritty mixture of post-rock, jazzy horns and industrial samples. Somewhere at the confluent of all genre and pretty forward with all their instrumentation, TMK deliver here quite a wild ride with a lot of dirty and menacing moments, and remind me a bit of what Giardini Di Miro might have done with a trumpet player after a long night of listening to classic industrial records.

Angry and full of angst, "Dirtwards" is an album which grows on its listener with every listen, and ends up being quite a catchy, wel written and well thought album. Congratulations to this band for keeping the flame of a genre a lot thought long dead.

Nice and remarkable debut full length album for Actress (of Werk Discs fame). While it clearly belongs to the whole avalanche of dubstep-goes-techno-goes-micro-house trend, "Splazsh" is an uncommonly contained and modest album, which delivers its dub-techno tracks, its sub-basses or its little low-res gameboy sounds in a very low key and charming manner. It all sounds fresh and "different" from what might have come out on Hyperdub or Mu recently, and gets some bonus sympathy points from staying subtle and not overdoing the dancefloor thing.

Ladyscraper's new EP is another salvo of ?-hard, distorted and broken-to-the-core breakcore. It might be called "Pink", it might be co-released by Cock Rock Disco, but it's definitely not an absurd, glowstick affair. It's all hard, oppressive and very noisy, and might remind a bit of what Bong-Ra's "Grindkrusher" would have sounded like with a much grittier production and with beats going through a metal distortion pedal. That's all quite cleansing, all good fun when twitched to in a club, and quite the kick in the ass that the breakcore scene needs.

Mashed-up mid-tempo breakcore, full of amen breaks, samples and high energy breaks, "C4 on the dancefloor" reminds me a bit of the first Cardopusher album, having the same kind of clean and clear production mixed with very party compatible tracks. A fun, well done EP that keeps a genre alive which strongly needs it.
