Comment: Vahram Muradyan is an Armenian musician/electronic music producer (born in 1983) who takes on a wide array of tendencies within the experimental electronica genre. Indeed, his sound is highly experimental and innovative by any means. Lots of different rhythms and moods are represented there which, however, used to extend from the segmented glitchtronic outlets and pitchbent minimalism and ancient or more contemporary samples exploiting aesthetics (a la The Caretaker, and People Like Us, respectively) to lofty post-rock-ish noise walls and barely perceptible digital tribalism. In a word, this 14-piece album talks to you.

/Screamo, Hardcore, Alternative rock, Crossover/

Comment: desperate screamo/hardcore attacks from Istanbul, Turkey, from a combo who had been active for 2 years (2005-2007). On this album is represented their whole discography. More concretely, angst-pouring vocal madness is backed up with dense noodling and drumming, though, at times being variegated with more relaxing moments and visions (running more in the vein of grunge/and US-based alternative guitar rock).

Cough Cool - Digestible Doom (2009)

Bandcamp

9.4

/Lo-fi, Noise pop, Post-punk, Avant-rock, Experimental indie, DIY/

Comment: just one musician/guitarist from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA who used to amplify his lo-fi noise pop-tinged undertakings through more or less avant-garde tendencies (throbbing nihilistic electronica, spoken word pieces-samples, sound art-alike micro noises and disturbed radio waves). In a more general way, Cough Cool sounds like an expansion of The Jesus & Mary Chain, though, the listener can detect the influences of such Japanese art rock bands like Maher Shalal Hash Bash, and Nagisa Ni Te.

/Poptronica, Slowcore, Glo-fi, Chillwave, Post-pop, Leftfield, Post-psychedelic electronica, Lo-fi/

Comment: the single (4.52) is a slow paced, dream-soaked enterprise, looking at the world through offbeat glasses. There are some brisk turns into a blissed-out realm, into great beauty into which the listener get immediately immersed. Glitter Bones is the collaboration act between Nick Donlin, and Zach Vouga this time they are assisted by Brian Brissart (vocal) from BIGCOLOUR, another Chicago, Illinois, US-based collective. The single crosses finely tendencies so characteristic to Beach House`s slowcore aesthetics and blissful seeds from the glo-fi/chillwave scene. An enthralling wash indeed.
