Genre: Dungeon Synth/Orchestral/Instrumental
Standout track: An Island (Unmapped) in the Nyr Dyv
Epic, mysterious and thoroughly fantastically macro-scaled dungeon synth that legitimately sounds like a soul-stirring soundtrack to an openworld RPG. There are some real neo-folk/martial industrial qualities to this Spanish outfits sound that remind this listener of the likes of Bleiburg, Of the Wand & the Moon and even Sol Invictus' later work. Each track feels exceptional and thematically set-apart from the others, thus listening to this in it's entirety will no doubt give many a recurring series of assigned imagined worlds, trailers for films/video games that don't exist, or synopses of books never written.
SZNUR, SZNUR
Genre: Power Electronics/Death Industrial
Standout track: SZNUR A
This sent a shiver down my spine and left me feeling like a pathological orphan in a world of cold pre-personal body objects, otherwise dead matter sans for the fleeting moments when thoughts and urges inhabit them - just like all good industrial music should ;p With an intro sampling Charles Bukowski's poem Dinosauria, We, the listener is assured you're receiving a product of tenably entropic culture. Fans of IRM and Content Nullity should jot this band's name down!
Sunbeam42, Space Flowers
Genre: Ambient
Standout track: Fairy Legend
( if you're reading this Sunbeam42, I'm sorry it took me a while to get around to reviewing your new album, I'm not signed-up to Spotify sadly! xC )
A 2020 release by an ambient music producer in my friends list. An enigmatic yet playful album that, to my ears at least, sounds like the softer synthier elements of chilled-out dance music and folktronica - arranged into en plein air colour-changing landscapes, or planting beds of manifest floridly pretty sound. You should also check out their recent released record Eternal Multiverse, boasting songs of a warmer diaphanous quality. Gorgeous stuff :3
