KTL, a duo of Peter Rehberg (Mego) and Stephen O’Malley (Sunn O))) ) played almost an hour of massive drone noise in the sophisticated auditorium of Sónar Barcelona 2015. It was rather relaxing although not a breakthrough experience.

RGB|CMY Kinetic is an audio-visual installation slash performace created by ART+COM with music by Ólafur Arnalds. It’s the marriage of the dance of light and beautiful ambient set in a dark room where you can comfortably sit or lay and feel completely relaxed and carried away for this 10-minute choreography.

Joanie Lemercier & James Ginzburg presented a live audio-visual performance of epic proportions at Sónar Barcelona 2015. At certain points I felt like my heart and guts wanted to explode because of the serious sonic assault but then I would have missed the 3D grids of what seemed like the cave-like lair of some insectoid alien species. Was not the easiest listen but well worth the experience.

Atom TM just killed it again with a massive audio-visual show at Sónar Barcelona 2015. Dark setting, cold electro from the Kraftwerk legacy cookbook and some crazy shit with the lasers.

Jupiter Lion is a great psychedelic rock band, playing mostly instrumental electronics-fuelled drum-centric stuff with heavy dragging beats. Listening to them playing live right now, note for self: check out their recordings as well.

Ludovico Einaudi – Taranta Project

World music kind of thing. Italian traditional music from Salento mixed with North African and Turkish flavours, tuned to the voices of jazz, rock, folk, and in some cases soundtrack-like grandiose orchestrations. For me it resembles Dead Can Dance on quite a wide range from the medieval sounds to the Spiritchaser’s ethnic fusion. It is a very unique and interesting record.

Throwing Shade – Fate Xclusive

Previous Throwing Shade materials were not convincing for me, indeed I think they were crap. But this new one locked gaze with me and kept my glimpse until the end of its four tracks. Slow electronic music with some nice atmosphere. Could be the little sister of Dark Sky.

Ben Chatwin ‎– The Sleeper Awakes

Beautiful modern composition album with a post-rock and atmospheric ambient edge to it. The moment of standing at the edge of the world, looking at a calm post-apocalyptic scenery and just turning away to leave everything behind and move on.
