Weekly Electronic Music Tips #25

Picks Of The Week:
- Melbourne, Australian ambient/drone/electronic duo of Andrew Wilson (Andras) and John Tanner (Eleventeen Eston), aka WILSON TANNER “All Hands Bury the Dead” from the new album “II” on Efficient Space
Masterly merging ambient electronics with electro-acoustic elements infused with maritime folklore, Australian duo create a fascinating swell of emotions swaying between harmony cloaked in a shadowy underwater mystique and sudden creases of tension in a sequence of melancholic, bittersweet, melodies and irregular strains of intimate torment make for a sometimes challenging yet highly intriguing and immersive listen
- Italian ambient electronic noise musician (synth player in Nine Inch Nails), Alessandro Cortini “Amore Amaro” taken from the forthcoming studio album “VOLUME MASSIMO” out 27 September 2019 on Mute.
Italian synth mastermind previews the upcoming new album with meandering and droning analog synth of relentless and soaring dark and hissingly hypnotic intensity pervaded with such immersive depth and power, furtherly charged by dash of guitar poignancy, not dissimilar to NIN he works with, to completely get lost in. Hissingly amazing.
- Bogotá, Colombia doom noisey EBM / proto-techno boy/girl duo Felina Spank “Ciclogénesis” off of V/A “The Ultimate Sounds Of Universe” on Mosaique Records
I recall the Bogotà duo for promising self-released EP’s, this time part of a rad compilation on Saint Petersburg’s Mosaique Records with a killer hard-hitting, bass stuttering, proto industrial techno bomb.
