Circuits fire and darkness pulses: Deep N Beeper's RAW 202X Re-RUB delivers exactly what it says on the tin, while Arcane Synthetic's A New Era & Nothing More: Part I moves through industrial abrasion and dark ambient landscapes — "immersion, not passive listening." moon musiq's Urban Graves for Feral Souls conjures witches and magick, and Chalice Sect's Finis Initii closes one era with pulsating EBM-charged darkwave — "the end of the beginning." Kilmarth's Raw Nerve arrives at full strength with a whispered voice and wall of sound, and Raccoon Fink crafts something "ridiculous, weird, and catchy" from literal random notes and John Carpenter-ish horror synths.
