Noisesurfer – ADSL (2012)




/Krautrock, Techno pop, Musique concrète, Experimental electronica, Dark ambient, Electronic music, Ambient techno, Space music, Tekno, Downtempo, Breakcore, Techno, Ambient pop/

Comment: Noisesurfer is the nom de plume of the Spaniard Joaquin Ronco aka Joachim Rontxelius who has issued a shitloads of releases so far, mostly on Ethno Indigo (established by him) and Jamendo. ADSL is a stunning miscellany of 15 tracks which used to fluctuate from picturesque downtempo vibes and alien emitted techno rhythms to more poppy techno threads to austere krautrock-alike modern rock structures to noise infused electronic propulsions. At times those techno rhythms are accelerated to reach the tekno level (for example, Timepaste). He exploits elements which may be fairly extremist ones in some circumstances (the use of digital noises, and glitched-out debris, and ghastly reverberations) but Joachim Rontxelius does exploit those ones in the way to create something recognizable and sublime yet poignant. In a word, those elements are subjected to formulas of bearable alternative pop/krautrock/electronic music. By kindred souls it could be compared with some Andrew Cauthen aka Take Pills Die`s releases and an early and mid-period Kraftwerk (the period when the legendary German combo started to drift from krautrock-fuelled vamps toward more electro and techno pop tunes, for instance, Ralf and Florian (1973); Autobahn (1974) ). In a nutshell, it is a solid issue which at times may sound like a retro one yet providing sustainable glimpses into the future. In a word, it is an instance of proper electronic music with and without cadences.

Clockwork Keyboard – Da Da EP (2011)




/Drill and bass, Noise, Experimental electronica, Jungle, Breakcore, Psychedelic electronica/

Comment: actually it is quite problematic to say is it a collection of sounds which is either to constitute a labyrinth or is it a miscellany of sounds to be over there to drift across the maze built up there before it. This 6-track issue can be considered a sort of interactivity which result is a frantic mix resorting to wild, elliptical beats, rattling rhythms and their bewildering drifts and sultry conversions. Furthermore, regarding the last elements in its intensity the release chimes even like sampledelic and sound collage based one. Clockwork Keyboard is the collaboration act between Craig Gillman and Joachim Rontxelius (at least was while producing this EP).

Dinosaur Youth - Stone Ages (2011)



/Ambient noise, Ambient drone, IDM, Post-rock, Noise, Experimental electronica, Crossover/


Comment: By reading firstly the description of this album at Archive.org and while listening to it this makes out somewhat an interesting gap. Indeed, it might be and at times it is about noisy postrock songs. On the other side, it seems to be a re-definition of the abovementioned style as well. First of all, through those 8 tracks are represented noisy ambient, skipping ambient drone, murky atmospheric sound, unconventional blurred/hurted/noisy IDM-esque overthrows, and masterfully subdued guitar noise levels. You can find out even some parallels with Sonic Youth`s most conceptual and experimental workouts herein. An intricate outset for sure.
