Comment: Mancunian Brin Coleman aka Bing Satellites (also known as Theta Wave Orchestra) is being a prolific producer whose music represents openness in direct and an indirect sense. He mixes different concepts and sets up different ways of creating music. Initially he came in touch with (fabulous) shoegaze either though his late works represent the ambient approach. There are up 4 long-running compositions full of panoramic views over wide picturesque plateaus and on the other side one can feel his purpose is to get rid of the time and space category. Because there is no necessity to relate the whole with certain places and on the other side one track starts off to get into another track and so on until the listener's perception gets ultimately all of that as an organic whole, as one organic track. His music is bright and sunny as if an elegy to the Sun.

Binkieman – Strictly Binkie (2015)

Dubbhism

Dubtronica
Dubstep
Electronic music

Comment: this set of 3 tracks can just be categorized as binkiecore. With regard to the imprint Dubbhism as a distributor of dub music it is all about quite tumultuous low bass frequencies, some more atmospheric threads, and adeptly treated electronic glimpses in between. Of course, in 2015 much was about dubstep as a genre yet fortunately it is not an orthodox issue. Binkieman comes out from the Netherlands and the music is produced on a custom built modular robosynth. Highly convincing.

Comment: I lately bought MBV's Loveless, the most important shoegaze album to have influenced a thousands of albums and artists thereafter. By listening to it again, I discovered it is quite austere and minimalist by its sound and its method. Just the guitar-based main thread is embellished by electronic effects and transgressive shifts played on a sampling keyboard. At times the effect just seems to be autistic. Just the same method though in a bit different way did Johnny Marr exploit on the two last The Smiths' albums. The Russian duo Accasari have taken something from it though providing a bit different scope and imagination. Adjacent to the case, it might be wrong to consider it nugaze. There are some unusual corners to surface here and there. It is rather a sort of shoegaze played under waterfall of resentment. It is slowed down and stoned in reveries like droning doom rock as if foretelling an impending chaos and annihilation. As if artistically describing the path of Grim Reaper coming closer and closer. It is simultaneously frightening and cozy, simultaneously beatific and morbid, simultaneously ennobling and gruelling. But you cannot deny the fact Grim Reaper is coming closer and closer. At times you may feel yourself to be dead already.
