The Cinematic Orchestra – Motion

Kk Null – Fertile

This one is one of my all time favourites. Savage atmosphere and great transitions. Distorted, mind-bending and meditative at the same time

Porter Ricks – Biokinetics

If the music is about the sensation of a space or a place, this one is deep, deep down the ocean.

Fennesz – Black Sea

The intensity of the lush noises, a fresh take on atmospheric sound other than generic pads. I hate those pads and I hope Fennesz does as well.

Emptyset – Recur

When it comes to raw analogue experiments and hardware jams this album has to be mentioned. Fresh analogue noise, simple rhythms and patient interaction with the machines.

Maurizio – M-Series

MØ7B (Unreleased Mix) is the best example of saying nothing, overpowering nothingness and observation.

Sote – Architectonic

Polyrhythm, digital noise, and fast transitions.

Autechre – Confield

The short-attack sound at the beginning of "VI Scose Poise" is so pure you can almost see it dancing in front of you.

Ryoji Ikeda – + / -

Sounds on the edge of human perception.

Basic Channel – Quadrant Dub

None of the usual techno breaks and rising sounds. Nothing imposing. Great sequences, gentle dub effects and patience.
