"Something New: Moritz von Oswald Trio" (feature)
Vertical Ascent sees Moritz von Oswald return to the fray to conspire 
with fellow tech-vets, Vladislav Delay and Max Loderbauer. A hybrid of 
techno, dub and Fourth World fusion, the timbral density, low- and 
high-end science, and a certain recursion are remotely familiar from of 
old, with something new coming from a live performance element.

"Something Old: Monolake, Fluxion" (feature)
The 15th year of Monolake was inaugurated with Silence. Robert Henke's 
latest evidences plenty still left in the creative tank. Something old, 
renewed. The same cannot be said for lately returned once 
fellow-traveller, Fluxion, whose dub and tech-house infused Perfused 
gives off a less than fresh aroma. Something old, alas, gone blue.

"21st Century Preparation Man" (review)
Eric Glick Rieman's prepared Rhodes electric piano involves as much 
dismantling as insertion, with the insides spread across the performing 
space, not to mention electronic preparations. What sets Rieman's music 
apart immediately are the mechanical noises and other native artifacts 
of the original instrument.

"Fear of Stranglers - Gail Priest" (review)
For some time now, Gail Priest has been exploring the timbre and 
elasticity of sound in a way that has become distinctly her own. Her new 
ep, Fear of Stranglers, is the next installment of this exploration, and 
takes her vocal and sonic manipulations to new levels of textural 
improvisation and processing.

"Flight of the Solstice Queens - Blue Sausage Infant" (review)
Washington DC based Blue Sausage Infant paints a dizzying array of sonic 
wash pulsing with color and Flight of the Solstice Queens does not fit 
neatly in any given sub-genre of drone, noise, or psyche rock.

"L Phantasm - Brown Wing Overdrive" (review)
New York extreme noise improvisers, Brown Wing Overdrive are back with 
another sonic assault with their new album L Phantasm. A "best of" 
collection from their haunted states circa 2006 and beyond, they 
describe it as a "prequel to all of BWO's releases thus far." Roger 
Mills investigates.

"Something Blue: Pop Ambient 2010" (review)
Kompakt marks each year with an issue of drone and tone poems showcasing 
the best in neo-classical and ambient. Pop Ambient 2010, curated by 
Kompakt kommissar Wolfgang Voigt, coordinates the usual shades of blue 
from perennials Marsen Jules, Andrew Thomas, and Thomas Fehlmann, while 
Brock van Wey makes a PA debut.

"Something Borrowed: Dettman, Van Hoesen" (review)
Berlin's Marcel Dettmann, pre-eminent post-mnml practitioner, delivers 
his debut, Dettman, which, for all its veneer, is deep in debt to 
classic techno. Fellow-traveller Belgian producer Peter van Hoesen’s 
solution to "Techno: the LP Problem" is to tinker with tempo and 
texture, his Entropic City relieved by cranked down bpms and grit spray.
