Schemawound – Heart Removal Kit (2016)



  • Experimental electro 
  • Post-industrial 
  • Electronic music 
  • Industrial techno 
  • Ambient


Comment: Ghosts are appearing…ghosts are…ghosts… . The ghosts are powerful phenomena who might exist, or maybe not. Jonathan Siemasko aka Schemawound`s 10-track issue does contain enough surge to do it. First of all, all those electronic build-ups may resemble dance-appealed music but the impression is feint. I can feel it is an instance of post-industrial music by its nature because the core of it consists of darker edges, which emit appealing black matter and ominous vibes and other exquisite relationships between the elaborated sonic parts. Of course, the release consists of diverse rhythms but the intention of those cadences is not to arouse one’s bodily/sexual sensations. The rhythms are profound enough to be somewhat obscure while hiding other layers inside themselves. Even if it happens to be the imagination of mine it is imbued with multivalent shades, which do need many listening times before to get deciphered. For instance, The Wasps In The Walls might remind of an early Einstürzende Neubauten where the mechanical aesthetic intention is united to physiochemical cerebral vibes. On the other hand, at A Resurrection Letter one could hear electro-house patterns, which purpose, with regard to the context, is obviously to confuse one’s opinion about the issue. All in all, the outing makes sense enough because of being sophisticated and thoroughly set out.

B-Complex – Acid Trip/Squelch (2008)



  • Drum and bass 
  • Jungle 
  • Drill and bass 
  • Breakcore 


Comment: B-Complex is a producer from Venezuela whose two-track issue is thought to be a non-dance music example though exploiting thoroughly dance music elements with gusto. Given that one of the criteria of dance music could be high intensity of beats, however, B-Complex`s endeavours in this field used to exceed these numbers. Moreover, the logic of the issue is quite different from an average drum and bass/jungle album because its nature is more disrupted and fragmental due to female voice-led samples and relentless changes in the rhythmic patterns. Therefore it could be said it is a breakcore issue, which outfit is remarkably more experimental and staggering than an average dance music issue. Ultimately it makes highly difference. The issue is a part of the catalogue of Zardonic Recordings.

  • Shoegazetronica 
  • Dream pop 
  • Alternative dance 
  • Epic 
  • Psychedelic rock 
  • Alternative rock 
  • Space pop 
  • Indie rock


Comment: I am back again to dig up the gems within the swathes of Birmingham, UK-based imprint Giant Manilow. This time there is a very special event spotted on. James Davis, and Thomas Whitfield aka Warmer Climbs` 4-track self-released issue could be a daydreaming experience while listening to it and staying outside at 25 degrees per Celsius. You can feel yourself a little bit exhausted by the sun shining at zenith while you are psyched by the sublimely exuberant guitar build-up and hovering vocals accompanied by epically programmed dance beats beneath it. At least it is one possibility to approach it. It is fun to experience of how the structure of songs used to distend and flicker thereby neglecting its borders in a delicate way. Stylistically, it is an exquisite drift between space pop, dream pop, electronic music and shoegaze. It is simultaneously powerful and blissful in its beauty and sensuality therefore following the genuine nature of shoegaze music. The world would be a little bit better place when such sort of music with a special, thrusting surge could be throning in the radio stations instead of bloody design pop.
