Favorite Releases from July 2024

July is the time for vacations, festivals, beaches, and, of course, good music. From innovative collaborations to genre-defining solo projects, this month's highlights feature a blend of experimental, ambient, techno, and electro sounds. Javier Marimon's latest work on Huinali explores a unique fusion of halftime and dub, creating an atmospheric synergy that is hard to ignore. Amenthia Recordings's mini compilation offers a proper brain-dance journey through complex polyrhythms.

The experimental ambient realm sees BODYXVIII delivering haunting soundscapes on Language Instinct. Meanwhile, Feral and Hypnus continue their fruitful partnership, producing relentless spiral techno that hypnotizes with its intensity. Kid Drama, a pioneer of the Autonomic genre and one-half of Instra:mental, combines influences from 80s TV, 90s Warp records, and early Autonomic sounds, creating a nostalgic yet fresh package.

Edward's debut on Smallville is a must-listen for those who appreciate the nuances of after-hour vibes, while VC-118A and Kaspiann's collaboration brings authentic electro energy to Helsinki-based label Vala. The Black Dog, a legendary duo from Sheffield, returns with the "Isolation" EP, featuring four tracks that harken back to early 2000s electronica. J. Albert's self-released project, "I Want to be Good So Bad," offers an atmospheric, glitchy, deep, and lo-fi exploration, perfect for downtime listening. Lastly, First Epoque introduces proper breaks to Well Street Records, perfectly aligning with the label's distinctive sound.
