9.4

/Improvised music, Avant-garde, Noise, Experimentalism, Free jazz, Chamber music/

Comment: originally these two long-running compositions were created approximately 20 years ago with the help of such legends as Joey Baron (percussion), Mark Dresser (bass), Phil Minton (vocal), and Gerry Hemingway (percussion). Initially the layers of the compositions were played in and recorded apart from each other and later elaborated and brushed up by Bob Ostertag and thereafter sent back to the musicians to learn their parts. The collective was born in this way. However, the outlet is very intense, noisy, and abrasive being immersed in various stylistic elements - extending from dizzy drumming snippets and Minton`s mad vowel/lycanthropic improvisations to few more subdued incantations embellished with the elements of chamber music all of that is wrapped up with the electro-acoustic ambiance. In a word, it sounds like a punk record within the plot of jazz world. In fact, it is much worth if to juxtapose it to a point on the average punk record scale.

Huixtralizer - Rasguño EP (2012)

A.M.P-RECS

9.1

/Dark ambient, Ambient noise, Avant-garde, Illbient, Experimental electronica, Noise/

Comment: Josè Soberanes aka Huixtralizer, an experimental music producer from Tula, Mexico provides 3 tracks which used to run on dirty, unpolished pathways made up of subdued (though, it is maliciously harsh now and then) noise and ambient, or even veering away the tendencies of subtle borealic vibes and scintillations (like Tim Hecker`s albums in the beginning of 00s). It can be assured the whole can be perceived lush and noiseful simultaneously. The issue is released on the legendary A.M.P-RECS.

9.4

/Experimental indie, Post-psychedelic electronica, Leftfield, Glo-fi, Alternative, Electronic pop, Poptronica, Sampledelic/

Comment: there are up 11 tracks which used to occasion lots of damnable vivid moments and miraculous feelings coming out from within me. It is neither pure electronic pop nor clear-cut indie pop - it is laid down somewhere in between. It is not even a chillwave/glo-fi act, it rather resembles of the sample-based/sampledelic works by The Avalanches or something like that which used to build on conspicuous warped pop visions. The project comes out from Philadelphia, USA. It is truly suggestive and enthralling now and then.

Nick R 61 - X (2009)

Bypass
Lastfm

9.2

/Broken beats, Breakcore, Tracker music, Experimental electronica, Noise, Spoken word, Chiptune, 8-bit, Avant-electronica/

Comment: Nick R 61 is a producer from Shakhty, Russia, who used to explore electronic music from different point of views. More concretely, he explores glitch-filled electronica, tumultuous noise, high frequency broken beats, and even frantic 8-bit pathways. X is a patchwork involving all the aforementioned elements, yet, there is one farcelike development based on a phone call with bad language in Russian, and playing on abrasive, off-beat frequencies, and noise-doused chopped electronica (108). Furthermore, even the string-induced textures getting developed into a border area of folktronica are to appear over there (IP I2-IV-I96I).

Voyageurs - WHITE MOON RECORDINGS SINGLES CLUB (2011)

White Moon
Bandcamp

9.2

/Psych-rock, Experimental rock, Trance rock, Krautrock, Psychedelia, Shoegaze/

Comment: every following step by Voyageurs, a Fayetteville, Arkansas-based combo is worth to be listened to. Their psych-fused, repetition-heavy patterns and shapes used to create lots of moods and dilate the space around the listener. This time the abovementioned styles are interspersed with the elements of shoegaze and krautrock, especially at those spots regarding ethereal vocal lines and lopsided, elliptical yet repetitive trajectores, respectively. These two pieces (Big Ritual, The Distance) are thought for those melomans who are got involved in listening to Spacemen 3, Serena Maneesh, The Brian Jonestown Massacre and other such kind of musical groups.
