John Heckle: Desolate Figures
Somehow it doesn’t flounder in the past and, within the limitations of the kit Heckle so obviously uses, it’s tantamount to his skill and originality as a producer that it all hangs together so brilliantly.

Interview: Nils Frahm
We met with Nils Frahm on the rooftop of Village Underground ahead of his debut live electronic performance at the Erased Tapes x The Hydra event in October 2013. In the extensive interview, we discuss Nils’s introduction to music via his father’s treasured record collection and what Nahum Brodski, Nils’s piano teacher had planned for his career, which he dramatically cut loose from at the age of 13.

Hubie Davison: I Won’t Be There
It’s not everyone who gets to debut on Berlin-institution Leisure System, but Davison was a canny pick, offering up a six-track EP that glows with textural detail and ingenious sampling.

Peter Van Hoesen: Life Performance
Kick Life Performance off when thundering along the train tracks of a daily commute, or while pounding the pavement under grey skies and through drizzle, and you will find yourself utterly ensnared.

Dadub: Untitled EP
A sophisticated yet robust package that beckons the listener on a journey of granular ambient landscapes subverted by heavy basslines and repetitive rhythmic structures.

DJ Rashad: Double Cup
As with any hour-long collection of club-focused music, particularly one at such a hyperactive pace, Double Cup can be exhausting to listen to all at once. Yet as a survey of the current status of footwork – its soul-indebted past, its hip-hop-inflected present and its uncertain, hybrid future– it’s an invaluable, remarkably coherent statement.

Clarence Clarity: Save Thyself
Clarence Clarity belongs to another realm; a planet in the future, where entertainment is king and God isn’t the saviour anymore, salvation is for the self determined.

R-Zone: R-Zone 06
R-Zone 06 is a staggeringly on-point trio of club-destroyers, and the label’s dedication to pure music, unhindered by reputation and hype, is only cause for further acclaim.

Dopplereffekt: Tetrahymena
The least surprising thing about this release is how forward-thinking it still sounds, how dangerous and sensual Donald’s sounds can feel at their very best. The results are unanimous, Tetrahymena provides some of the strongest electroid mutations you’re likely to hear all year.

Jay Daniel: Scorpio Rising EP
Detroit may be strapped for cash, but we can rest assured that its underground music scene continues to thrive, stocking the city with a unique musical currency that shows no sign of losing its value.

Rival Consoles: Odyssey
An EP that seems almost impossible to encapsulate with mere words. When it ends, your heart sinks for a second, but that is swiftly dismissed as you jab at the rewind button, ready to ride the emotions one more time.

Livity Sound: Livity Sound
In the dance realm, there’s very little that’s more exciting than hearing a group of artists at the top of their game, thinking as one, and Livity Sound is most likely the best example of this that you’ll hear all year.

Bob Moses: Far From The Tree
Far From The Tree goes hand in hand with the carrying of gloves and scarf in a bag “just in case” and is deserving of end to end listening through headphones. Summer is overrated, it’s time to get autumnal.
