Audiopile Review: Say what you like about the reissue industrial complex, but it does a great job of shining a light on the lesser-known work of classic artists. Juan Atkins aka Model 500 is legendary as one of techno’s original architects. Perhaps inevitably, the 12” singles Atkins released in the...

"Frankly unmissable if even just for the album’s opening killer ’040468’ - named for the day MLK departed - which sounds better than ever on its sumptuous vinyl cut, ‘Tranquilizer EP3’ is the one the stans have been eagerly awaiting. It brings to a close a necessary reissue series for...

Audiopile Review: You may know Masahiro Sugaya from his contribution to the much-loved compilation ‘Kankyo Ongaku: Japanese Environmental, Ambient & New Age Music 1980-1990’. Just over a minute of tinkling, plinking ambiance, ‘Umi No Sunatsubu’ somehow manages to be one of the highlights of a very stacked comp. The truth...

"Echospace [Detroit] is the label launched by Rod Modell (Deepchord) and Soultek's Steven Hitchell, two leading lights of the minimal dub techno scene.

Audiopile Review: Shop fave Matt Karmil returns after a four-year hiatus, arriving on the Studio Barnhaus imprint after his impressive stint of records on Smalltown Supersound and PNN.

It took a village to create Le Motel’s Odd Numbers / Số Lẻ.

“Music for Lovers” is the new solo outing of multi-instrumentalist Samuel Rohrer (playing a combination of percussion, modular synthesizer and keyboard-based instruments on this recording).

"In recent years, the introductory texts for the Pop Ambient compilation series, which is released every year on Kompakt as the last release before the Christmas break, often began with the sentence 'Every year again.'

Double LP version. "Sleep Deprivation began in 2006, during a time when our sleep patterns were drastically altered by constant travel and late-night gigs.

Finally the 5th album of the imaginary German quartet - as always via Denovali. Although the title "Systeme" suggests a perhaps rather distant-cool album, it is the most personal and concentrated soundtrack so far created by Thomas Bücker from Münster in his "E-Smog-Playground" studio. In 2008, the quartet still flirted...

Audiopile Review: Showstopping physical debut from Australian producer 990x, whose previous digital-only releases were heady sojourns into a syrupy interworld suspended between thunderous trap beats and glossy vaporwave textures. 990x slides neatly into the Sferic family, his billowing ambient hip-hop make a ton of sense next to albums by label...

Probably in another life David Edren (DSR Lines) was a visionary biologist or chemist. In this new sound adventure, he becomes the narrator of anatomical and cellular symphonies, catharsis of invisible biochemical processes, painting the micro-dimensional flows of the subtle body or imaginary geographies of hidden micro-bodies. Here, his organic...

Audiopile Review: Somewhat overlooked during our current revaluation of ‘90s electronic music, Robert Leiner, probably best known under his Source Experience moniker, was nonetheless an impactful figure of the beloved era, landing smack dab in the middle of that great collision between post-rave techno, early IDM and chill out room...

Audiopile Review: Kranky is a vintage label that seems more relevant than ever.
