REVIEW // ‘Airdrop II’ and ‘Airdrop III’ find Low End Activist blending ambient tones with the UK hardcore continuum, refracting late-90s rave energy into something fresh and timeless. Airdrop sits perfectly between past, present and future. inverted-audio.com/review/low-e...

a solid @lowendactivist.bsky.social ‘airdrop ii’ take on @residentadvisor.bsky.social today

Peak Oil’s eminently watchable False Aralia sub-label return with a pair of EP’s revelling in a signature spirit of hallucinatory dub chicanery, Trip Hop x fluid hydrodynamics, primed to file next to /\\Aught, Pole, Short Span, Vlad Delay boomkat.com/labels/false...

thanks philip

Album 1 of these early hours Low End Activist - Airdrop III instagram.com/p/DRDyI8DCDz...

new double-drop from Low End Activist is very very nice (↓ Airdrop 2 AND 3 out now)

low end activist ‘airdrop ii’ & ‘airdrop iii’ out now.

Four albums for today 🌌 techno/idm edition

lifted ‘3’ included

False Aralia 05 & 06 🌬️ mindfuck experimental dub from Izaak Schlossman on a laser-focused imprint from Brian Foote of Peak Oil. think Purelink & Topdown Dialectic, further abstracted and more human at the same time. incredible project so far, these new 12"s may be the best yet

also coming up from False Aralia; slow-mo trotters in a classic burial mix style, more anonymous shenanigans, intrigue & stuff ✨ boomkat.com/products/fal...

deepest dub/ambient soul coming up from the cult False Aralia tier of Peak Oil, revelling in a now-signature sound of hallucinatory compression chicanery x fluid hydrodynamics to file next to the best bits of /\\Aught, Pole, Short Span. Tip! boomkat.com/products/fal...

we’re announcing the next 2 false aralia 12”s today. preview/pre-order vehicular & borgesian term now in advance of their dec5 release date.

JUST IN! 'Faith' by Purelink Lush deeply immersive ambient dub from Purelink on Peak Oil records, the follow up to 2023’s widely acclaimed ‘Signs’ debut. www.normanrecords.com/records/2085...

🎶 Le trio américain Purelink, révélé par un premier album au succès surprise, sort le beau «Faith», qui se veut plus minimal et diaphane, sans perdre en audace.

for the ableton blog, i visited the purelink studio in queens back in april to learn how the band crafts its gossamer ambient techno jams

Purelink - Faith ambient dub magic. one of the best albums of the year finally on my turntable. another killer pressing from Peak Oil.

Finally shipping; Purelink dance around the dub techno matrix on their new album 'Faith', landing somewhere between Pendant, Shuttle 358, Hallucinator and NWAQ, with additional vox from Loraine James and Angelina Nonaj bit.ly/4kYuTS5

EP OF THE WEEK // @brianfoote.bsky.social issues the fourth release on False Aralia, a 4-tracker from Iri.gram exploring dub ambient, rhythmic noise and experimental glitch. Highly tipped if you're into the weirder shades of downtempo electronic music. inverted-audio.store/products/iri...

False Aralia, new Peak Oil sub, landed at www.anost.net. Warm Rhythm & Sound-infused tracks + some fragmented, grainy sounds on False 03, more complex drum programming w/ subtle, dubbed-out details and airy sound design on False 04. @brianfoote.bsky.social

we’re doing our first ever LA Peak Oil this summer. ra.co/events/2212851

Immensely sharp releases number 03 and 04 from the so-far-so-great False Aralia, a newly minted label really starting to make a name for itself in the world of new experimental club sounds worldofechomusic.com/search?q=fal...

false arilia double drop today. locked in. @brianfoote.bsky.social

I wrote about new records from Lindstrøm, caroline, Qasim Naqvi, Purelink, and much more, plus Heinali and Andriana-Yaroslava Saienko's stunning meld of Hildegard's plainchant with Ukrainian folk song, for Unsound's label futurismrestated.substack.com/p/fr-121-ser...

Purelink’s new album Faith shimmers with emotion and warmth, blending ambient textures and vocal collaborations into a bold step forward for the genre. Tune in and float. 🌫️✨ #Purelink #FaithAlbum #AmbientMusic www.audiofuzz.com/reviews/pure...

I interviewed ambient trio Purelink about their great new album for Peak Oil pitchfork.com/features/int...

Lifted - Trellis amorphous future jazz + afterparty chill + fuzzed out echoes of rock + space-bent ambient + heavenly guitar all fractalized & blended into... something I still can't describe all these months later. one of the best albums of 2024, from killer label Peak Oil

thanks @bandcamp.com

hope to see you this weekend, nyc friends

thanks @ninaprotocol.bsky.social
