Thermometerometer - Who Measures The Measurers?
Well, there's noise, there's experimental and then there's... Thermometerometer. Flips, clicks, drones, buzzes, pops and even glitches are thrown together and have things done to them that they could never have imagined in their wildest nightmares on "Who measures the measurers?", the first release from the Immigrant Breast Nest label.

Torrent Vaccine - Tentative Response
This is an impressive debut album. As noted before, it sounds very different to just about everything else (and just try comparing it to Torrent Vaccine's labelmates on BitRiot), and this certainly makes for an ear-catching release. It's not perfect, though, but a second album should help to smooth off those ragged bits (particularly the second half that sags a little) and is keenly awaited. Recommended.

Transistor6 - Virgin Venom
Well-produced and not particularly demanding, "Virgin Venom" has all that it needs to have broad appeal to a relatively wide audience of casual listeners. Ironically, these are precisely the kind of people who will not easily come across the work of Transistor6. A shame, really.

Violence and the Sacred performing as Viosac - You Are Planning To Enjoy The Apocalypse
Put a bunch of aging Throbbing Gristle fans in a room with stacks of analog equipment. Lock the door and come back a couple of decades later and you may discover something quite startling: instead of the decomposed remains of a creative collaboration, you will instead be faced with the newly-energised and thoroughly interesting experimental music project that is Violence and the Sacred, or Viosac.

Talbot & Deru - Genus
Philip Glass and Steve Reich aren't composers I ever expected to be brought to mind by an Ant-Zen release, but this is just what happened on hearing "Genus", a joint release between Ant-Zen and Dear Oh Dear Records, the label of British composer John (Joby) Talbot, working here with American electronica artist Deru (Benjamin Wynn). Their collaboration is the soundtrack to a dance work based on Darwin's discovery of evolution.
