Trentemøller on KEXP



I was on a late-night scroll when KEXP’s brand-new session popped into my feed, and I’m so glad I pressed play. Danish sound-designer Anders Trentemøller turns up with a razor-tight five-piece—he handles guitar and synths, Icelandic singer Dísa drifts at center stage, backed by bass, drums, and a guitar/keys multitasker. Tracked 11 Feb 2025 and posted in April, the 23-minute set bottles the widescreen tension of his current tour.

They open with “I Give My Tears”: woozy bass, gated snares, then a shoegaze blast that floods the room. “Dreamweavers” starts as short-wave hiss, locates a heartbeat pulse, and finally soars into a synth-pop sunrise that’s sad yet strangely hopeful. “Nightfall” circles a dusk-lit guitar loop; Dísa’s gauzy vocal floats until the band swells into full cinematic drama. For the finale they time-warp to 2013 with “Still On Fire,” ripping off the dream-pop gauze—industrial kicks, serrated bass, cold-wave guitars igniting dark-club euphoria. KEXP’s mix captures every analog echo and tom rattle, so cue the headphones. If you drifted from Trentemøller after Lost, this video is a perfect reason to dive back in—and share it forward.

New Release: Demilitarize by Nazar (Scheduled for release on April 25, 2025)

Angolan producer Nazar's forthcoming album is inspired by introspection and classic cyberpunk aesthetics. The lead single, "Anticipate," sets the tone for an album that promises to blend electronic music with personal narratives, reflecting on themes of mortality and resilience.



Overlooked Gem – Mabe Fratti's "Sentir Que No Sabes" (2024)


Guatemalan cellist and composer Mabe Fratti offers an experimental sound that defies categorization. Her album "Sentir Que No Sabes" combines avant-garde elements with emotive melodies, appealing to your appreciation for leftfield and culturally diverse music.
 




Timeless Classic – Tim Maia – "Tim Maia (1970)
Tim Maia’s debut album is a groove-soaked cornerstone of Brazilian soul, infused with funk, gospel, and rock energy. His deep voice and raw charisma fuel this genre-defying classic, bridging Rio’s samba spirit with American soul. It’s a vital record for understanding Brazil’s musical crosscurrents in the '70s—spiritual, funky, and unfiltered.

The Golden Age of Apocalypse (Ten Year Anniversary Edition) by Thundercat


"The Golden Age of Apocalypse" was a record that introduced Stephen Bruner, also known as Thundercat, as a talented musician and creative force. The album was executive produced by Flying Lotus and featured a group of talented young musicians from Los Angeles, including Young Jazz Giants Kamasi Washington, Cameron Graves and Ronald Bruner Jr, as well as Austin Peralta, Brandon Coleman, Taylor Graves, Hadrien Féraud and Oliver Johnson. The release of this album inspired and motivated many of these musicians to release their own albums, which gained recognition and attention for the wealth of jazz talent in LA, specifically Kamasi Washington's "The Epic" in 2015.

Ryuichi Sakamoto – 12




"12" is a new album by Japanese composer and performer Ryuichi Sakamoto. It is a musical diary of his experiences during treatment for cancer, and was recorded during convalescence. The album is stripped back and more instinctive than his previous album "async," and is a reflection of endurance, struggle and the ability to create something new. The album is characterized by its use of cavernous synths, sparse piano playing, and background noise such as medical apparatus and rhythmic breathing. The tracks range from dark, desolate compositions to more delicate, achingly beautiful pieces. It is a powerful and emotional reflection of one's journey through illness and uncertainty.

5 albums to start the year with



Oath Records is excited to announce the release of Jascha Hagen's third LP, "Songs for a Future Generation." Hagen is known for pushing the boundaries of the House and Deep House genres, incorporating elements of Downtempo and Techno to create a unique sound that is constantly evolving. With a discography spanning over a decade, Hagen has developed a reputation for crafting immersive and balanced musical experiences. His previous releases, including "Harmonies Romantiques" and "A Touch of Cold Water," showcase his ability to seamlessly move between different parts of the auditory spectrum and fill in the gaps between them. "Songs for a Future Generation" is no exception, featuring uptempo tracks like "QQQ" and "Slide Through the Valley" alongside slower, introspective cuts like "Rivers of Absence," "Too Far," and "Swaying." The album also includes more experimental tracks like "L7 Dreams," "Gem," and "XX Blues," all of which showcase Hagen's innovative approach to creating music that is both conceptual and deeply satisfying. "Songs for a Future Generation" is the latest addition to Hagen's impressive body of work and is sure to be a must-listen for fans of constantly evolving House music.

Slikback, a musician based in Nairobi, Kenya, has released a new album titled K E K K A N. The album features 10 experimental, club-ready tracks, building on the success of Slikback's earlier EPs such as FINAL_, TYPE_, 22122, and TIER. Slikback, also known as Freddy M Njau, gained recognition with the release of his debut EP, Lasakaneku, on the Hakuna Kulala label, an offshoot of Nyege Nyege Tapes. He has since become one of the label's most successful artists.

Since their debut LP "GLP," we've known that the two take a slightly different approach when working on their duo project than when working under their own solo personas. Straight, technoid techno with lots of rhythm and amusing melodies is what Green Lake Project is known for. And they did "Thrust" to perfection by doing just that. We embark on an exciting voyage that takes us across strange galaxies and to the very edge of the cosmos. The CD is referred to by GLP as "Space Techno," and I won't argue with that. Synthesizers that pulse above our heads are like lasers, while funky percussionists zip past us like little comets. We occasionally hear seductive, extraterrestrial vocals that eventually convince us that we are no longer on Earth.

Electronic music is just one of the many genres of music that have a long history in Miami. This compilation, which includes classics of house music as well as IDM and the fathers of hip hop, aims to demonstrate what we've stood for over the past 30 years. We've always loved our city, and we want to emphasise how we've all impacted one another. The current generation is advancing things while maintaining the bar that earlier generations established. This collection might make it easier to understand where we've come from and where we're headed.


The Spanish progressive electronic band releases a debut album with unexpected musical mixture of  idm ambient krautrock prog prog rock progressive electronic and synthpop.

$ergi4Elctrnts I



I haven’t had any concept while selecting those tracks, that is why it is so eclectic and varies in genreas. Here you will find a very complex work by the Finnish experimental Collective Kemialliset Ystävät, as well as classical but still trippy drum'n'bass track by Sully . Pay attention at Brooklyn based avant-garde label RVNG Intl. and Sinchi Collective from Amsterdam, 6 tracks of above mentioned are included in the collection. Enjoy!
