The latest from Aphex Twin is titled Cheetah. The music was inspired and made on the annoyingly complicated Cheetah MS800. When the Cheetah was introduced no one bought it and even today with retro synths back in style it’s been deemed worthless. That hasn’t stopped Richard D. James from taking a crack at it. The […]

The latest work from the group Plaid is an album titled The Digging Remedy. The music has an IDM vibe similar to Clark with the slightest hint of Downtempo mixed in. The album has a mellow vibe and is easy to listen to but it’s a little bland. It’s good for background music. RIYD: Clark, […]

Foam Island is the third album from Darkstar. The music is a mix of Atmospheric Bass Music, Electro R&B and has a touch of Electro Pop. The resulting sound is one that is up beat and smooth but also has a little bit of a gritty, urban edge. RIYD: Junior Boys, Actress Tracks: 3,7,8,11,12

Orphaned Deejay Selek 2006-2008 is the latest from Aphex twin but under the moniker of AFX.

The latest from Squarepusher is an album titled Damogen Furies. The artist has expanded his sonic repertoire, ditching his signature Electro-Jazz sound for a glitch Drum&Bass sound instead.

Flame Rave is the latest from artist Clark. The artist continues his exploration of IDM on this four track EP and also adds an element of Minimal Techno this time. The album has a perfect balance.

Someday World is a collaboration between two heavyweights of electronic music, Brian Eno and Karl Hyde of Underworld.
