Analogue warmth throughout this release from Cleveland’s Imaginary Softwoods.
Carlos Ferreira - Everything We Knew Was Wrong
A deeply reflective work from Brazil’s Carlos Ferreira, patching together some crisp digital tones with raw analogue goodness.
Serge Geyzel - As Fallen Leaves
Nostalgic, swelling synths that sound like they’re travelling back in time, layered over softly programmed breaks.
Language - Breakdown Wo! (I’m Having One) (fka boursin’s Broken Megamix)
A deep, reflective take on this fantastic 90s house track, dubbing it out to infinity for 13 minutes of ambient breaky bliss.
Pyramidal Decode - Respiro
Deep and introspective, with swelling pads around repeated rhythmic bass and percussion motifs. One to get lost in.
Otherwire - Tonight is the Night
Slow-mo sci-fi chugger from Texas, appearing as part of a ‘Name Your Price’ compilation of similar styles.
Aleksi Perälä - GAIA 15
Breathtaking soundwork throughout this release from Finland’s Aleksi Perälä. Enchanting melodies and exotic percussion interwoven to guide you through a blissful otherwordly journey.
Ryuichi Sakamoto - 12
On hearing of Ryuichi Sakamoto’s passing this month, it made sense to include this album in this month’s list.
A beautifully tragic work with a haunting sense of fragility woven throughout.
