Selected as release of the week

James Holden has quite literally gone wild with his latest single, aligning soaring synth arpeggios with a stumbling beat for a track that seems to channel the primal energy of shamanistic rituals on strange psychedelics. Beat and synth-only versions included for your remixing pleasure.

The fifth album of Brooklyn's '!!!' sees them reach a definitive stage of self-realization. Recruiting Jim Eno of Spoon, their unique fusion of disco, funk and punk concentrates dancealicious licks, iconic vocals and their mischievous energy, with a tangible maturity in the production and song dynamics.

Where Bobby Krlic's debut LP focused more on live instrumental performance, his follow up excavates sonic cavities through more abstract electronic means. Akin to the weighty impact of Emptyset and poignant, macabre imagery of Demdike Stare and Raime, needless to say his own impressive sensibility is at the core.

The second single to tease the anticipation of their upcoming album, Dom Maker and Kai Campos continue to expand their song concept, understated indie vocals appear muted under rigid proto-dance beat, melodic electronic slithers and seductive tape hiss. Simply yet ingeniously done, augers well.

Split-release from US experimentalists Yellow Swans' Pete Swanson and Jeffrey D. Witscher as Rene Hell. Swanson's fifteen minute 'Self Help' traipses haunting noise intensities and Rene Hell's three tracks flit around fantastical cosmic synths patterns. Wonderful noise-ambient release.
