electronica

Electronica and Dubstep: music defined by its frenetic pace and plethora of bleeps, bloops, blips and bass.

Into the Noise
Miami’s underground electronic scene is about to get a jolt of raw, immersive energy. Enter Nosivel—the sonic alter ego of David Levison, whose live sets blur the line between industrial intensity, techno drive, and glitch-heavy experimentation. Known for building his music in real time using modular synthesis, Nosivel doesn’t just perform tracks, he constructs evolving soundscapes that feel alive, unpredictable, and deeply physical.

Why Drum and Bass Suddenly Sounds Like a Lost N64 Game
In the late 1990s, a strange collision of technology and culture produced a sound that felt like the future. Gaming consoles like the Sony PlayStation, the Nintendo 64, and the Sega Dreamcast were pushing video games into fully 3D worlds for the first time.

Playlist: one old favourite, two new
That Clare - Get Away Anyone who rates Songs of Faith and Devotion as her all-time favourite album and picks out Cabaret as another major influence is alright in my book. Teesside’s That Clare produces elegantly dystopian electro pop with a strong political slant.

How to Send Demos to Electronic Music Labels
For many electronic music producers, finishing a track is the easy part. The difficult part comes next: sending it to record labels and hoping someone on the other end actually presses play.

The Dual Identity of Dmitry Grakhov: Why One Musical Lane Was Never Enough
I recently had the chance to sit down with Dmitry Grakhov, a producer who refuses to be put in a box. In an industry that often tells artists to "pick a lane" and stay there, Dmitry manages to operate in two completely different spheres. To the world of hip-hop, he is known as 1MEZ, a sharp lyricist and producer. To the electronic scene, he is HILLYSAM, an architect of deep, atmospheric soundscapes.

The Quiet That Follows the Applause
I didn’t cry at the end of Better Call Saul. I cried three days later, while washing dishes. The water was hot, the sponge worn thin, and suddenly—without warning—I saw Kim Wexler’s hands again.
