Sky Civilian - At the Seams - I think this is what used to be called IDM? These six tracks radiate pleasant vibes (Atomnation)

Six months following her debut EP Open Door on Dutch imprint Atomnation, Sky Civilian is set to release a sophomore EP, At the Seams, on November 8th. At the Seams is a stepping stone, from the lyrical, gentle, genre-agnostic electronica of Open Door, to Maggie’s own rounded and angelic take on acid-house. The EP showcases six dance-floor-friendly, cross genre tracks, each with a signature sound.  Maggie’s cinematic, synth-heavy style emerged after a decade of orchestral French horn playing and classical studies. She combines this brass-inspired, synth-forward approach with her weightless, almost-whispered vocals, and dance-floor ready beats. The melding of influences present in her work make Maggie a fresh and promising new artist in the electronic music scene, an artist we hope to hear more from for many years to come.

Polynation - Igneous - 14 months on from the release of the single Muriatic, the full album is finally out, and it’s worth the wait. (Atomnation)

Polynation is set to release debut full-length album Igneous, due May 10th on Atomnation. The Amsterdam-based producer-tandem of Stijn Hosman and Hessel Stuut introduces a more cinematic, sweeping departure from the fine-tuned alchemy of techno, experimental pop, and ambient established on debut EP Allogamy. Across 10 tracks, Igneous fortifies Polynation's ambition to mold sound – both acoustic and electronic – into a powerful narrative pulse. Expanding the course established on debut EP Allogamy, the duo was heavily inspired by both the unruliness and unblemished beauty of nature. As film composer and video artist respectively, Hosman and Stuut consolidated Igneous with some cogent visual elements. Igneous became the product of two laborious years of studio tinkering. During these sessions, Hosman and Stuut were less preoccupied with translating their music to the stage, and more with letting their imagination and production values run rampant. Ranging from Kosmische majesty to more cavernous, nimble propulsions, Igneous is a kaleidoscopic aural journey, entertaining that strangely comforting notion of human-made structures surrendering their stark geometries to the unremitting blossom and decay of organic life.

Polynation ~ Bloom

Amsterdam duo Polynation has been quiet on the release front since 2019’s Igneous, briefly surfacing last April with the lovely single “Wald.”  Turns out the single was a standalone release, not found on the new EP Bloom, but for good reason; Bloom possesses its own unique timbre.  By adding Eric Vloeimans on trumpet and Itai Weissman on saxophone and EWI, the two has both tweaked and expanded…
