I was familiar with Krakentiâs work in the context of heavy industrial music â kind of like Trent Reznor in his angrier days.
While I do like industrial, I find that most independent industrial albums can get very same-y after a while. Thus, I was pleasantly surprised to see that Krakentiâs latest release on Bumpfoot, Mice Plan, was described as a mix of âvarious styles,â industrial blended with trip-hop and ambient.

Jimmy Behan is one of those artists I kind of discovered accidentally. I had a couple of his releases on my hard drive, but they were mixed in with a lot of other things I'd downloaded at approximately the same time, so I didn't really notice they were there. Then occasionally a track would pop up on shuffle, and I'd think, this is great, who is this? I'd look at the name, and nine times out of ten it would be Jimmy Behan.
So I dug his releases out and gave them a proper listen.
"The Giant Woods" is a classical electronica album filled with ambient calming sounds and hypnotizing drones.
The album is Maps and Diagrams', a well known persona's in electronic music circles, first release through Yuki Yaki Netlabel and it looks like the first one under a Creative Commons License.
Ambient music is one of those things that people either hate or really hate, and I used to be in both those groups until an ambient-loving friend of mine sat me down to set me straight. "You don't have to have songs shoved down your throat," he said. "Just close your eyes and float, and you'll find that music is all around you." At the time I rolled my eyes at the tree-hugginess of it all, but really I do take his point.
It has been a proven fact that meditation can help people lower their stress levels, and thereby eliminate stress-related diseases such as migraine and asthma. And SaReGaMa has the perfect music for your meditation sessions - Samadhi.
Samadhi means 'the highest state of mental concentration or absorption that a person can achieve while still bound to the body and which unites him with the highest reality.' This album includes a total of 9 cuts that will surely transport you to your own samadhi.
First of all, congratulations to Arthur Caravan. Never had I found a more complicated record title! Ok, it fits into code-and-numbers mood intelligent dance music composers adore, but try to tell a friend: Have you heard Cravans latest 222777444777782555 555444? I challenge you... just try...
Enoughrecords compiled a sampler mixtape especially for Frostclick! Get a taste of the netlabel's best electronica, postrock, industrial, drone, and ambient by Sugar Overdose, Ikimashoo Aoi, Jenifer ?Åvila, Gilo, Nagra, Violet and the Mutants to name a few. The album is quick and dirty, with a lot of gritty vocals, heavy bass and electronic beats. The collection of songs is solid - everything works so well together since the sequence and combination of the songs is obviously well thought of.
