Void of Coil - Deadly Winter Snow (2008)
/Microtonal, Noise, Musique concrete, Organic electronica, Electro-acoustic, Minimalism, Dark ambient, Soundscapes, Avant-garde/
Comment: behind Void of Coil hides himself Ariel Chapuis (aka Ahcapap aka Playing With Nuns), a prolific Argentinian noisenik and off-kilter, peripheral sound producer. There are represented 8 tracks which used to function as the representatives of microtonal sounds. These soundscapes are almost inaudible, involving the aspects of haunting (dark) ambient, organic electro-acoustic, gritty microscopic noise, soothing minimalism, and some concrete sounds, all of them are tightly interlaced with each other.
Danubio Rodriguez - Ser espacial (2011)
/Synth pop, Electro pop, Downtempo, Electronic pop, New Age/
Comment: there are up 3 tracks by Danubio Rodriguez, a musician from Uruguay who fuses guggling electro cadences and suggestive synth pop motives with some bombastic New Age and downtempo tendencies. In a nutshell, it is soothing, it is relaxing, it is simply fine music. Nothing more, nothing less. Just so. The more you listen to it the better it gets. It used to grow. And the coverprint is great.
Muuttuvat Kasvot - Muuttuvat Kasvot (2007)
/Forest folk, Free folk, New Weird Finland, Drone folk, Avant-garde, Experimentalism, Improvised music, New Weird Europe, Weird folk, Post-psychedelic electronica/
Comment: this 11-track takes on obscure yet charming reflections of an inner space which are made up of creeping raga-alike vistas, heavily droning psychedelia and loose compositions-improvisations. Jari Koho`s project comes out from Finland and can be compared to the likes of Vierivä Viiksiportieeri, Uton, Kemialliset Ystävät, and Keijo, all of them are Koho`s compatriots and part(s) of the so-called forest folk scene.

Waskerley Way - Wind Shear (2011)
/Noise pop, Bedroom pop, Chillwave, New Weird Europe, Shoegazetronica, Experimental indie, Post-psychedelic electronica, Post-pop, Exotica pop/
Comment: Waskerley Way is the one-man-project from Newcastle, Great Britain who has issued a handful of releases over the last two years. Wind Shear involves three pieces which are heavily dubbed, noisefully but dreamily and psychedelically produced. Mikey`s oeuvre is essentially convincing, i.e stroking punching simultaneously thus showing up his ability to create astonishing tracks. All this stuff he has done so far it is not a common practice in Europe at all, more concretely, mixing up the elements of shoegaze, dream pop, exotica pop, chillwave, noise pop, weird folk, and bedroom pop he gets rather more close to the artists across the Atlantic. More profoundly, his music can be compared with the likes of Magicks, early Animal Collective, Chevalier Avant-garde, The Bilinda Butchers, Sekotis, Simon Bird, and Blackbird Blackbird.
