II
Thirteen years after their landmark debut, Italian duo Voices From The Lake (Donato Dozzy & Neel) return with their much-anticipated second album, II (two) on their own Spazio Disponibile.The record marks a new chapter in one of electronic musics most revered projects. Born from a friendship and a singular musical vision, Voices From The Lake first emerged as a one-off live performance in the Japanese Alps, later distilled into their self-titled 2012 album. That record has since become a touchstone in ambient techno, reshaping the global landscape of hypnotic and atmospheric electronic music. In the years since, the duo have performed worldwide, released a handful of EPs, worked on installations, and founded record labels, all while continuing to refine the projects unique identity. Yet the core of Voices From The Lake has always been its deep, aqueous approach to sound, a sensibility that returns in full force on II. The project was never meant to become what it did, the duo reflect. At one point, we even paused it. Only to later embrace it in all its forms. II is both a continuation and a reinvention. True to that spirit, Voices From The Lake have explored extremes in recent years, from high-tempo live sets to seated listening concerts, while remaining anchored in the meditative pulse of ambient techno. II extends this lineage, carrying forward the immersive sound design and boundary-pushing vision that has defined their work from the beginning.

DYSTORTION
DYSTORTION Extrawelts Latest and Longest-Brewing Album Lands This December on Cocoon In this beautiful world marked by rising chaos, sometimes the simplest way to escape its troubles is through sonic relief. Germanys renowned electronic duo Extrawelt will offer exactly that with their 5th full-length album, DYSTORTION, via Cocoon Recordings this December. For over two decades, the humble duo behind Extrawelt, who shy away from making music for clicks, have been a steadfast presence in electronic music. Known as serious studio and tour-focused artists who craft timepiece albums, each a work of enduring craft, that go on to create atmospheric, out-of-the-box live acts, theyve been shaping and redefining electronica since their first release. DYSTORTION is their most diverse and evocative album to date. Imagined over six years and shaped by a world in flux through COVID, political upheavals, social media, and AI, it reflects the contrasts and twists weve all felt while offering surges of serenity and hope. From brooding tension to playful relief, it moves through different states in an evolved Extrawelt manner. The albums opening credit, Grand Départ, as if a cinematic prelude, invites us into a world of creeping bass, an explicitly Extrawelt sound thats synonymous with the anti-genre genre they work within. The albums second track, Clapland, sees Extrawelt joining forces with Jimi Jules, a name synonymous with excellence in electronic music, creating a rare collaboration that is felt in every note. Soon, the mood shifts into softer melodies as heard in Surrounded By Miracles, Hope Sounds Good, and Sir Stringalot, which bring bright euphorics to balance the darker moments in an album echoed by industrial influences. Later, as Dystortion (the albums title track) unfolds, were drawn into something few electronic artists can create: raw emotion. This is a gritty landscape as reflective as it is pulsing, glitchy, intense, and richly textured. DYSTORTION is a reflection of a complex, divided world, carried through dramatically with Extrawelts signature techno tension. Like the world right now, it is full of contradictions, surprises, and moments of introspection, an essential listen for fans of mature electronic music that may or may not need a reminder of why, after 20 years, were still listening.

SAD
This is an album travelling through seasons in your mind. Its as close to my final form as Ive known, Ikonika aka Sara Chen says, describing in evolutionary Pokémon terms, their Sad and Sexy new album. With SAD, they take the reins as producer, songwriter, and singer for the first time, SAD marks a distinctive development from their past as a producer. Its Ikonika, transformed, intimate and of course beautifully made – with their sultry, unvarnished vocals directing the journey across an arc of ten tracks. An album for pop lovers and club music lovers alike. At a crossroads a few years back, both personally as a new parent, and with their future in music, Ikonika stepped into the hot light of the frontstage, picking up the mic to start singing and performing their own lyrics. Simultaneously, they reckoned with being queer and trans in public life and its reverberations: finding my voice without fear speaking first as Sara shares. The goal became to be undeniable, celebrated and rewarded. The albums airy production reflects the music they DJ and enjoy; theres credit to a plethora of African electronic music on the album. Sara is half Egyptian and tracks such as WHATCHUREALLYWANT feature rhythms that their long ago dad taught them on the Egyptian tabla, carried over and spoken into other hand drums such as the djembe. A log drum preset on a DX7 cartridge used for their early records, became a prelude to their later interest in Amapiano culminating in an early 80s-ish wedding music sound – fiddly solos, overlays and trills. Through their close-knit circle of dancing queers too, Ikonika became inspired by more music of South Africa; Gqom and Bacardi. Ikonika got pen and paper out with interdisciplinary artist and writer Tice Cin to add further nuance to the narrative world of SAD. Cin finishes SAD on Make It Better, barring in her North London vernacular, as the only vocal guest on the album. Ikonika was encouraged by Tice to see SAD from a writers point of view, taking the listener into SAD WORLD. Ikonika weaves a storyline into the project, that begins on a sloshing train and ends on a stolen Lime bike. Whatsmore In light of a recent diagnosis of Autism (which Sara first clocked through videos on socials), every lyric is towards activating an understanding of self. Living post-diagnosis has offered the direct clarity that so many live without and has shifted Saras life. Enjoy this new adventure into Ikonikas world, more intimate than ever before.

Rain & Cymbals
12th Isle founding member Stewart Brown and London-based percussionist Pike present six tracks born out of preparations for live shows at Cafe Oto and The Three Wheel Drive festival, the culmination of collaborating on No Direction from the first Material Things album. Inspired by various traditions of experimentalism, the pair touch upon reference points such as Eliane Radigue and Nurse With Wounds Soliloquy for Lilith (on Coastal Town), as well as the wider canon of motorik, dub and drone practitioners over the past 60 years. Concerned with the interplay between early exports of free jazz and more modern electronics, Rain & Cymbals builds on the projects first outing with a more refined approach to production and a clearer modus operandi, combining ambient pads with additional synth work by Dan Macintyre, multifaceted percussion work and heads-down, emotive minimalism.

nagoyaka na kaze / 和やかな風 (quiet wind): a collection of forward-thinking electronic experiments sourced from central Japan - co-curated by Nagoya artist abentis for Facta & K-LONEs Wisdom Teeth imprint. The project profiles a close-knit community of music makers operating in and around the Japanese city of Nagoya: one of the countrys most populous and industrial cities, but one all too often overlooked in terms of its cultural significance. Curated in close collaboration with local scene organiser Yuya Abe - aka abentis - the record seeks to capture the creative energy of a community of artists making hard-to-define, future-facing electronic music away from the clamour of the bigger cities. In Nagoya, theres a strong culture of supporting artists. Even if you pursue music in your own way, as long as its good, youre encouraged to keep doing what you want, explains abentis. Within that environment, my generation has been able to freely bring in elements we like from all kinds of genres, combine them in our own way, and express ourselves individually. If you go to Tokyo or Osaka, that kind of freedom isnt something you can take for granted. Spiritually, Nagoya fits the mould of cultural hotbeds like Bristol, Detroit or Melbourne, showing that some of the most innovative creative communities form away from the glare of the capital cities. Like Detroit, Nagoya is principally known for being a major auto manufacturing hub, famous for being the home of Toyota Motors - but behind the scenes, it is quietly harbouring one of Japans most vibrant and forward-thinking electronic music scenes. In a good way, Nagoya is a bit removed from the cutting edge, so you find people making all kinds of music, explains Karnage. If youre making music, you feel like part of the crew, and people of different ages mix together without much hierarchy. The citys music scene is characterised by a freedom to mix genres and an open-door approach to creatives of all disciplines. The artists featured come from a diverse set of backgrounds, ranging from hip-hop to noise music, but have found a common collective identity in their omnivorous approach to genre. As such, the record moves fluidly between shimmering ambient and new age (Am Shhara, DHYAN, daiki hayakawa), psychedelic minimal house (Methodd, abentis), abstract, low-slung downtempo (baptisma, Nasty Soupman) and spaceage steppas (Karnage). Id say the way ambient, new age and that kind of sound design are blending nicely with dance music feels somewhat new, says baptisma, the crews eldest member and de-facto scene leader. Responsible for bringing artists like Basic Channel, Mala and Jan Jelinek to the city, baptisma has been crucial in establishing underground electronic music in Nagoya since the 90s, and now helps cultivate the next generation of local talent. Artists and DJs are seamlessly mixing ambient and new age with techno, house and bass music. I think thats a really interesting development. nagoyaka na kaze has its roots in a one-off event held in October 2024 as part of the 10 Years of Wisdom Teeth Japan tour. Curated by abentis in collaboration with Facta & K-LONE, the showcase featured live sets from eight artists based in and around Nagoya at one of the citys key dance music hubs, Club JBs. Each of the artists features again here, on record, presenting an original commission produced especially for the project. The records art direction was led by Yudai Osawa - in-house designer for Kankyō Records, the much-loved Tokyo record shop run by H. Takahashi - and features original photos by Hayato Watanabe.

Konx-om-Paxs Phantasy 2 is a mind-bending fusion of modular synthesis, and immersive sound design. Developed alongside a hallucinatory visual performance, the single drifts between the pointillist trance riffs, modular chaos and the melodic nostalgia of Boards of Canada. Scholefield crafts a beatless yet kinetic world where granular textures, analogue synths, and custom-built noise machines collide.

Foundry
Striking out in a new creative direction while retaining her trademark dimensionality and shapeshifter styles, Yu Sus first singles for Short Span set the pace for whats to come in 2026. Folding together certain elements of minimal, the warm shade of downtempo, and the momentum and horsepower of techno, Foundry and Bonita highlight the producer and DJs keen ear for detail and textural variety, carrying the depth and sensitivity which has always made her music so alluring and kaleidoscopic as it twists between genres. But these are also club tracks and the most dance-forward release from Yu in a minute.The two tunes were engineered as exclamation points and decentered grooves when built for live sets throughout 2025 at festivals like Mutek, and serve as a taste of the bossier, growling end of her forthcoming albums full range. In the interim Yu Sus practice has continued to push boundaries. Her Polyphonic Eating series, begun in 2022, has evolved into a transformative approach experimenting with modern culinary environments, applying concepts of Oliveros-inspired deep listening and the heightening of perception through a theatrical marriage of multisensory elements, set in intimate venues. Her relocation from Vancouver to London and immersion in a new location also contributed towards developing perspectives on sounds and sonic inputs that ultimately shaped the direction of these tracks.

Altum
Noumen returns to Central Processing Unit after a six-year absence with Altum. This bumper record, the Ukrainian artists fourth release for the Sheffield label and first since 2019 double-LPObscurium, serves to remind us all why Noumens music has been lauded by the likes of Mixmag and Resident Advisor in the past.Altumis a consummate piece of contemporary electronic production, a technoid exploration of outer-edges electronica that nods to genre greats like Autechre while still maintaining its own unconventional charm. Across well over an hour of music here we find Noumen repeatedly playing punchy mid-tempo beat work off of some more cerebral tuned synths.Altumkicks off with the epic Oion - beginning in that Autechre/AFX mid-tempo zone, full of deep-sea bangs and whirrs, the track slowly builds to a final stretch of delay-drenched keys which set us free amidst the outer cosmos, almost Sun Ra-style. Its a perfect liminal-space roller and an apt scene-setter forAltum. Oion provides a blueprint for several of the albums other highlights - plenty of the joints here adopt that same approach of hitting hard with the drums and soft with the synths. Second track Splitter takes on the baton from Oion while souping up the kick to warehouse levels; the beats in Far Wind splutter like a needle skipping on a mid-90s Tresor drop; Fate Carette, all eerie looped synth leads, is a highlight as the album enters the home straight. The rhythm production (which, it should be noted, is exemplary throughoutAltum) is ratched up in intensity on a handful of numbers. Telemask displays a delightful breakbeat - if youd told me this was sampled from golden age A Tribe Called Quest, Id have believed you. Mid-section anchors Awe and Axis are glitchers in the Mike Paradinas mould, with the latter showing off some pleasing steel pan-esque synth leads for good measure. And whileAltumgenerally maintains a processional pace throughout, there are points where Noumen toughens up the drums for club deployment - Unveilness shows off a real chunkiness in the low end, closer Spurling Sign plays a satisfying rolling groove off of ever-layering synths, and the title-track is an alien machine-funker in keeping with fellow CPU electronauts like Silicon Scally and Cygnus. Noumens third album for Central Processing Unit is a pleasingly hefty double-LP which builds on the zany invention of acts like Modeselektor and Autechre to delightful effect.

Girl on Moon
Girl On Moon finds Joe Davies & Johan Kaseta in quiet-propulsion mode: a ~9-minute title track built on a spiraling string motif and a Herbert-leaning rhythm bed-dry, precise, quietly insistent, with a flicker of early Pampa warmth. K-LONE - UK producer and co-head of Wisdom Teeth, reframes the core with added air and light swing, teasing the chords forward with fine-grain percussion; its an elegant bridge between club function and detailed craftsmanship. The EP closes with a beatless dub of AMY from Joes Smallville LP (2023), stripped back to its core beauty. Three complementary cuts; long-game house that holds a room.

Opacity Code
Johannes Motschmann combines classical compositional craft with a distinctive electronic voice. His work spans ambient soundscapes, experimental live electronics, and AI-assisted composition (referring only to AION2 written with the Software he had developed himself at German national radio station SWR), always shaped by his background in piano and contemporary music. Alongside his orchestral and chamber works, Motschmann has released several acclaimed electronic albums that highlight this unique fusion: Electric Fields (2016) electro-acoustic landscapes blending analog synths and piano Lifestream (2019) handcrafted electronica performed without loops or samples AION 2 (2022) an exploration of artificial intelligence as a co-composer His upcoming solo EP on Traum continues this trajectory, putting the focus firmly on his electronic side while carrying forward his deep compositional sensibility. With his Opacity Code release, Johannes Motchmann explores the interplay between clarity and obscurity in sound. By layering acoustic and electronic elements like an orchestra, he creates textures where transparency and masking coexist, leading to both intentional and accidental new soundscapes. Quote from Johannes Motschmann: Lately Ive been working a lot with acoustic instruments and somehow I always have a naturalistic and also a bit retrospective sound in mind for the electronic music I make. I always mix all kinds of synths until I get a mixed sound similar to an orchestra, where you dont always know immediately which instruments are involved when you first hear it. Just as in painting where you get many new colors by mixing the basic colors, I also proceed in arranging and mixing new tracks. Many factors determine whether an element becomes audible at all: the volume, the frequencies, the environment, everything influences each other. So when I try to make everything transparent and make the sounds shine, there is sometimes the exact opposite effect of too many layers masking each other. It can be annoying sometimes but as a side effect this often results in new soundscapes, some of which were perhaps not even planned. While working on Opacity Code, I was really looking for moments like this, so that in addition to passages of complete clarity, there are also episodes of only mysterious impression, so that you can feel how behind all the soundscapes there are still other levels that you can gradually track down.

Spider Of Easton
Silver Waves is the longstanding project of Dylan Mallett. A producer based in Bristol, his practice encompasses aspects of electroacoustic composition, audio engineering and improvisation. Amongst releases on Berlins Portals Editions (Maria W Horn, Yair Elazar Glotman), Silver Waves has soundtracked independent video games and contributed to contemporary art pieces (Kleins Lifetime for Serpentine Galleries), as well as composing for multi-channel surround sound performance. Following technical credits on releases from AD93, Drowned By Locals and two Acne Studios collections, European shows with Liturgy, aya and Moor Mother and extensive collaborations with free improv vocalist Dali de Saint Paul, Silver Waves presents debut album Aninstar via Mun Sing & NE$$s label Illegal Data. Aninstar embodies a quest for rebirth via transitory states. Taking root during a four-month stint in Llandudno, it tells tales of a stray dog as it journeys through an underworld, conjures viking funeral sea-scapes from shoreline voice notes and liminal crossroads punctuated by whispered meditations. Forming sonic allegories for the stories in Dylans surroundings, its six tracks emanate from coastal field recordings, pneumatic drill foley, chopped and screwed vocal takes and gnarled string instruments - landing somewhere between industrial shoegaze, sound collage and new age folklore. In late 2024, the debut Silver Waves Trio performance was commissioned by Batus En Masse Festival, manifesting a live premiere of Aninstar in the tunnels of Bristols Loco Klub featuring double bassist Jo Kelly and avant-percussionist Dan Johnson, with lighting design by rxx_tx.

Happen
Hot seducers. Two of them. The A-Side is called Happen. It comes from prolific Tokyo based DJ and producer Hoshina Anniversary. A simple drum machine groove, a manic melody, witching siren sounds, psychedelic voices, some soft chords, and soulful high-pitched singing, somewhere between Dam-Funk coolness and Ian Svenonius-The-Make-Up sixties pop longing. One for warm sexy nights under neon lights. Out there in psychic realms. The flip brings a Dolphins interpretation. Yes, that feverish trio behind R.i.O., consisting of Nadia DAlò, Benedikt Frey and Menqui. Their freshly recorded version comes with haunting nonchalant singing, displaying the tunes core melody as a more prominent actor of the play. Michael-Mann-Pop-Nostalgia with a baroque touch, that waves dark-ish. Even some Jon Hassle feeling is in there. Hoshina Anniversary disclosed, that the original song is inspired by jazz musicians like Chet Baker, Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Jaco Pastorius and Keith Jarrett. None of them is directly stylistically audible. But their kind of blue is all over. On the A as well as on the B. Twice soul music for the free.

Buying his first classic synthesizer, a Yamaha CS01, in 1984, he delved into music production at an early stage. Kenneth put out over 40 releases over the years- under his own name as well as stepping up under various aliases- Estelle Montenegro, KG Beat, Exit Strategy and many others. Kenneth also formed some super-groups together with friends, his Sun Children / Sunkiss project- together with David Alvarado- put out highly influential music on legendary Peacefrog Records. Body Music was originally released on Plastic City in 2001 and it has been a Smallville favourite since a long time, so we are super happy to present this beauty as a repress, as always with a full cover artwork by Stefan Marx.
