“'I WISH I WAS JUST A CLOUD ..... PARTY IN THE SKY'”
From the darkness, electricity breathes: Cathode Ray Tube's Suono Y Oblio moves the tiredest souls through heavy rhythm and low-lying drones — "a rebirth through a chasm of noise" — while Stewart Keller's Inky's Sleep OST scores a haunting 2D horror-adventure through dark dreams and otherworldly creatures. Children of Osiris' Abramelin 11 conjures sonic invocations where names become sigils and the archaic mutates into the futuristic, and drexgod's Vinculum Universale tears through ambient jungle and breakcore. The Darts' Eventual Happenstance delivers punkery forged under pressure, while c a r d i o g r a m's Headland spins a Catherine wheel of synthetic and organic sound — a coastal soundtrack for escape.
“Noises Beyond is an '80s horror-inspired exploration of darkwave and post-punk that flits between morose and campy vibes for a uniquely cinematic experience.”
“theJLM turns Alyse Dreamhouse's post-punk/bedroom-pop banger into a frenetically bouncy IDM remix.”
“Keiko Tsuda deliver an angular, fiery blend of guitar and electronic drums — a raw, cinematic soundscape where improvisation meets experimental groove.”
