Had the new Softsssss EP from London’s Will Hofbauer on a few times recently and it's good. Left-of-centre, downbeat electronic music with a little Dub thrown in for good measure. Nice artwork too

Jan Wagner + Answer Code Request - What's New

Moktar - Silk
Tantalising taster from a new artist called Moktar. The Australian-based Egyptian is releasing a five-track EP on 15th of October called Moktar EP via Mall Grab's Steel City Dance Discs label. Punky in attitude as it struts along, the weird Middle Eastern sound, like a wind instrument, that creeps in around 1:30 makes it!

The Tunnel and the Clearing by Colleen
A beautiful, personal response to life's tough deal
Chorusing - Watching the Beams
US artist Matthew O’Connell goes by the name Chorusing and Watching the Beams is a taster from his forthcoming album Half Mirror, out via Western Vinyl on 13th August. Ghostly dubby vocals float atop a syncopated electronic soundtrack. If the rest of the album is like this, we're onto a good 'un.
I enjoyed this hour of emotive music from Matt Emery for the Subtempo mix series

A fleeting Ambient communiqué from an experimental perspective
King Ugly Delight - National Disaster
The perverse artist name may be tongue-in-cheek (or self-deprecating) and the label name Shite Music For Shite People doesn't soften the grisly effect, but the self-described "abrasive experimental punktronica" is unequivocally bang on. Check out the manic title track from the debut album National Disgrace.

Julia Bondar's live sets always scratch my itch, and this one's no exception:
Contains a few tracks from her new mini-album Industrial Symphony, to be released on 16th September via Endorphin.es Production.

Fusing an electronic Pop sensibility with madcap drums and treated vocals, the hazy vibe that emerges is like a drug-induced state. Put Your Head Above The Parakeets is the lead track from HAAi’s forthcoming four-track EP, out on 12” and digitally on 11 September 2020.
