Fennesz - Black Sea

Fennesz Black Sea:

It's a Fennesz album, you know what you're getting. It's really good, but still nothing super different than the other albums.

Rating: 13/15 hypnotic trances

Evil Nine - They Live

Evil Nine They Live:

After hiding under a rock for a few years, Evil Nine popped back out with a zombie themed album. Yeah zombie electro and it works really well. Some cuts sounds like “Thriller” bonus tracks and others are just straight up good electronica. You know it's good when they coax a good rap out of El-P. Perfect for your next Ecstasy fueled Halloween party.

Tim Hecker-An Imaginary Country

Tim Hecker An Imaginary Country: Not quite ambient, not quite electronica. Hecker continues to find cool ways to piece together electronic and found sounds. An incredibly nuanced work this album can easily be put on as background music or listened to intently.

Flashbulb - Red Extensions of Me

Flashbulb Red Extensions of Me:

Flashbulb is to Squarepusher what Squarepusher is to most other electronic music. Ben Jordan has the rare gift of being a great beat maker, obviously willing to spend hours hunched over a computer carefully editing each and every drum sound, and a talented guitarist. Jordan's guitar and keyboard arrangements bring a fluency and utilizes a harmonic language often lacking in electronic music.
