Reviews
Gatekeeper, “Young Chronos”
The new free-to-download EP from the NYC duo marries their squelchy high-concept techno to a new set of orchestral sounds.
The Pitch: Babyland, “You Suck Crap”
We introduce a new contributor to ID:UD by way of some discussion of Babyland’s 1992 debut.
The Exploding Boy, “Four”
The Swedish post-punk quartet wear their influences loud and proud in a largely successful crossover effort.
Rentip, “Daily Routines”
The solo debut of Prague-based producer Rentip is resolute in its dedication to rhythm.
Replicas: Mlada Fronta, “Every Thing”
The exhaustive Artoffact retrospective of Mlada Fronta’s discography does a great job of getting new fans up to speed while giving die-hards the obscurities they want.
VNV Nation, “Transnational”
The latest from Mark Jackson and Ronan Harris fails to buck the creative inertia that his gripped the project for almost a decade.
Dubcon, “U.F.O. Pon Di Gully Side”
The Dubcon record offers a dark fusion of the distinct dub styles of cEvin Key and Ryan Moore.
Gary Numan, “Splinter (Songs from a Broken Mind)”
A new album from our site’s patron saint coincides with a climax of appreciation for his early work, even as it continues the arc of his latter career.
Cervello Elettronico, “Anima Meccanica”
The first album for Hands from the rhythmic electro project is a spookier, more foreboding affair.
Instans, “Understatement”
Years in the making, the second record from Severe Illusion side-project Instans is as stoic in its sound as it is in its message.
End to End: iVardensphere, “Break The Sky”
We take a quick dash through the first single from the hotly anticipated forthcoming iVardensphere record.
Perc & Einstürzende Neubauten, “Interpretations”
The collaboration between the noted techno artist and the industrial godfathers provides new perspectives on both their works.
