Favorite Releases from December 2024
As we bid farewell to 2024, December was a fitting finale for a year rich in groundbreaking music. This month’s highlights include standout compilations from Oslated, re:st (happy 10th anniversary!), and From a Lost Space, alongside Nathan Kofi’s beautiful debut album on De Lichting. BODYXVIII offered a meditative experience with Closer, blending lush textures and drones, while R-010 navigated the fascinating “grey area” between techno and halftime, bolstered by remixes from ABSIS and Toxido Mask. Love Over Entropy teased his upcoming album with the NLC EP on SoHaSo, and Yard One and Tryst delivered the stellar San-lim Yok EP featuring talents like Vovian, Alex Albrecht, Red Pig Flower, and Eli Verveine. Daniel Avery’s sole release this year brought pure drum-and-bass brilliance, while Foreign Material expanded hypnotic techno’s horizons with Vesperal Lights on NORITE.
