Cutie is a weirdo little fun house. Shimmer is a big chill beach vibe house. (The Central Remix is more dance floor.)
Shanti Celeste – Cutie / Shimmer
Acid Witch – Rot Among Us
Doom metal with a psychedelic edge. I’m obsessed with Psychedeathic Swampnosis where otherworldly flute melodies is layered over some psy-doom metal pillars. It’s like the soundtrack of an old fantasy movie (the Labyrinth kind) but with metal.
Molybaron – The Mutiny
I mentioned this before when Lucifer came out as a single. Just putting the album on this shelf for the record, too, absolutely worthy as a full-lengh unpacking of what I’ve heard coming in the single. It’s an amazingly well crafted metal record.
Dog Fashion Disco – Cult Classic
Has every bit of Dog Fashion Disco in it I want in a Dog Fashion Disco record. Fits the discography like priest in a nursery.
Makaya McCraven – In These Times
Another record showcasing the comeback of nu jazz. Smooth and easy.
Priori/RED – Nigh
It seems like 2022 was the come-back year for the classic IDM sound.
O-Wells – Moldoom
Electro to dub techno.
lynyn – lexicon
Glitchy IDM with nice melodies. Sounds very old school for a record in 2022, but also brings me back to a great era of rhythmic experimental music. It could have been a major Warp release.
Minuit Machine – Don’t Run From The Fire
It’s so strange that I haven’t made note of Minuit Machine before considering how much I listen to their records recently. It’s a constant item in my cyberpunk playlists. It’s an amazing blend of electro and goth moods resulting in this beautiful dark wave atmosphere that I just strive in.
Overlook – Lost Souls Club EP
This is unexpected. I haven’t heard of Overlook before and this music is so much up my alley that it’s like the literal avenue in my city center. Jazzy moods and urban sounds with drum & bass. It’s like DJ Krush but instead of triphop blues having some more tempo to breakbeat and onwards. This is so not 2022, but it’s so amazing.
