Found Sound (Pugilist)

I slept on Pugilist for far too long and this album came out right as I was realizing that he is my kind of producer: not beholden to any particular sub-genre, and spanning a breadth of tempos while maintaining a thread of dubby atmospherics throughout. If your'e a fan of Skee Mask (and you should be), youll love this.

Stochastic Drift (Barker)

This came out a year ago and is still in regular rotation for me. I had not heard of Barker prior to this but he quickly achieved "must listen to everything they've made" status. There is still not an appropriate name for a particular breed of electronic music that Im drawn to, and Im mostly grateful for that. IDM I guess would be the closest, but most ppl just associate that with Autechre and Aphex - and this is not that. Its a gorgeous album. Its not ambient. Its not dubtech. Its meticulously crafted and thanks to youtube I learned he used some very unconventional and analog devices in the making of this. When people ask me exactly what kind of electronic music I listen to, I send them this. (and maybe a dubtechno playlist too).

Drawing — Helen Ward

I found Helen via Insta. Shes a nice lady. As a person who makes both landscapes and abstract art, I am here to say that making abstract landscapes that work is not an easy thing to do. Helen does it. She does it really well, and she does it frequently.
