The Israeli music scene seems to be the gift that keeps on giving to the rest of the world. Absalon is a prime example of such an artist who bends the conventional norms of electronic music, gently sailing into new sonic shores.

His latest EP ‘The Mind’ released on The Rust Music Label is an absolutely meditative yet intense trip that does full justice to the complex human construct that the record is named after. The producer brandishes floating melodies over crystalline soundscapes that unfurl in irrefutable organic detail. For those of us who dig well-engineered, emotive and experimental music, this EP will effortlessly lift your spirits off the ground and keep you there for a while too.

Ekorce’s latest EP ‘Imago’ is a true testament to his love for nature in all its simplicity, complexity and sheer awesomeness. The listener is taken through themes of transformation, metamorphosis and rebirth via vehicles of surreal symbolism and splendid sonics, also alluding to the last year and a half as perhaps a period of chrysalis for humanity.

The artist, who recently completed his PhD in Neurobiology, likes to use raw, crunchy, organic elements, unusual rhymic patterns and textures to enunciate his amazement at the patent beauty of creation, particularly the chaotic yet delicate wing movements of butterflies. The EP is a window through which one can perceive and marvel at such often overlooked occurrences.

French music producer and beatmaker LIL FISH is somewhat a different kind of fish in the vast sea of electronic musicians. With 3 albums and several remixes under his belt, the artist is attuned to creating organic trip-hop inspired tunes with a surrealistic touch that comes from his love for nature.

For me, the music of his latest album ‘Organic conjures up visions of exploring a forest, a feeling of adventure, and being lost and found at the same time. Give this a listen and discover for yourself the untold stories that your soul seeks to tell.

Melody, accessibility and ‘tentative experimentation’ are the elements of electronic music that ‘nervous_testpilot’ has always been drawn towards. Coming from an established background of creating soundtracks and sound design for video games through his company ‘Mode7 Games’, “Information Technology” is his first release on the Billegal Beats Label.

This foray into the IDM world is only natural for the UK based musician and producer, who effortlessly blends emotive and uplifting flavours with relatively abstract textures and geometric interplays of sound. Inspired by the aesthetics of retro computing as evident in the theme, the EP is a well-crafted piece of music that easily manages to crossover between the likes of mainstream house or trance music, experimental IDM and last but certainly not least, the vast and wonderful world of video games.

Hyper-glitch noisemaker Romanowitch released one of the hardest hitting and unconventional sounding EPs of the year so far. In ‘Inner City’ he channels all the angst and uncertainty of the pandemic, along with a plethora of other dark emotions associated with living in the deep end of human ‘civilization’ - the “inner city” of any metropolis - and brings out a sound that is definitely not for the faint-hearted, but one which everybody who has lived in a big city will relate to. His raw and gutsy sound takes the element of noise, both inner and outer, and puts the listeners in a test of their own resilience. Try out the experience for yourself and you may actually feel a sense of accomplishment that conventional music fails to deliver. It is the same kind of feeling that Batman, the dark knight, must have attained when he conquered his fears, the kind we get when we make peace with the darkness within us.

Billegal Beats debutant Navaro taps into his experience of the most powerful emotion, love, and chronicles his relationships, personal growth and coming of age in this brand new 4 track EP called ‘Timeline’. His premier sonic sojourn delivers mellow atmospheres, petillant melodies and elegant basslines. This drummer & producer from Israel is one of the many talented new artists to emerge from an exciting music scene in the country and promises to be a force to reckon with in the future.

One-man electronic jam band Templo dropped the Zebra EP earlier this year. This melodic glitch extravaganza may be called Zebra, but the music is way more than just black and white. Moody morsels layered atop of gnarly basslines infused with glitchy bits of goodness will leave you feeling wonky and wanting for more. Give these free-flowing funk-bass tunes a spin and get your wobble on.

Ben Wyss aka Sixis has produced an intensely dark techno-emotional masterpiece with “Empty Eye Dawn”, a post-apocalyptic cyberpunk sonic sci-fi spectacle. This electrosentient neurobass orchestra beckons the age when AI overtakes human intelligence, exploring the darker, inscrutable realities that emerge from beneath the surface and the crucial connection between man and machine.

In 'Steep Dreams’, the latest album from Bobby West aka Erothyme we find ourselves swimming through a lush undergrowth of sublime sonic awe that consists of graceful glitches and grunts, tender melodies and caressing synths with an underlying foundation of electroclassical euphoria.



From the vibrant lands of Hawaii, the eclectic duo known as ‘Medisound’ bring us their debut release ’So Blessed’, a collection of electro-spiritual sonnets that are intended to uplift, heal and nourish the soul through carefully crafted instrumental arrangements and a radical production framework that support the raw lyrical profundity of the vocals. This ingenious work of art ushers the ancient world of medicine music in a modern direction by fusing a festive energy with an organic world-fusion sound

Inter-genre audio-chef Somatoast has released a new piece of sublime electronica called ‘Dreamhop Jazzytime’ where he whimsically explores the spaces between psychedelic soul, jazz-hop and funk-bass to cook up a work of organic Idm that is equally timeless as it is ludicrous.

Sonic cyborg and bonafide reality fabric manipulator Mindex has released his latest musical innovation with his new EP ’Logic Board Music’, a sonic canvas that expounds new imaginary humanoid worlds. In this journey through electro-etheric cyber-space, he explores the possibilities of virtual reality through sound in a manner that even Dave Tipper would highly approve

Once described as "harnessing the rational to illuminate the transcendental”, the Hedflux project was born in 2004 with the intention to create high energy electronic dance music based on breakbeat grooves with a psychedelic aesthetic.
