Favorite Releases from September 2024
September brought an avalanche of new music as artists and labels unleashed a wave of releases that had been building up during the slower summer months. Among the highlights is our third offering on Never Late, a mesmerizing IDM journey by the multi-disciplinary artist Tensen Park. Meanwhile, Konduku and Amenthia Recordings deepen their creative partnership with Slowworm, a polyrhythmic, mind-bending EP that showcases their evolving synergy.
Sciama finds an ideal platform for his evocative and powerful album Collapse Of Order on the fresh imprint OODA. At the same time, Jamie McCue of Silent Season launches Moon Garden, a dub-oriented label, with a new release from Hidden Sequence. Soela’s latest album, Dark Portrait on Scissor & Thread, marks a sophisticated statement, featuring collaborations with Francis Harris, Lawrence, Philipp Priebe, and Module One.
Rrose and Polygonia join forces on Dermatology, a mini-album blending rhythmically adventurous grooves and industrial textures. UK-based label Kinetic introduces 5rvz’s debut EP, Trench, where sharp-edged percussions meet brooding halftime rhythms. From Spain, YDVST crafts a 10-track ambient exploration, Atelier Silencio, for the Shimmering Moods imprint, weaving delicate melodies and subtle drones.
Amsterdam’s nthng returns with the Two People EP, bringing his signature emotive style to the fore. London’s Osmura closed out the month with a solid six-track compilation featuring standout contributions from Atomic Moog and Caldera, among others. From introspective ambient and emotive deep house to driving techno and hypnotic halftime, September’s offerings reveal the spectrum of electronic music in all its intricate brilliance.
