1) Actress: ‘ДАРРЕН ДЖ. КАННІНГЕМ’. Actress marks an auspicious 20th year releasing music with a near hour-long collage or braque of some 100 unreleased cuts trawling his HD and traversing its depths of brisk 313 techno, silver haze synth noise and flashes of neo-classical beauty. #aoty2024

2) Lasse Marhaug: ‘Provoke’. Expansive and hard to categorise, a precision-tooled set of ice-cold tonal productions that heavily lean into Mika Vainio’s rhythm experiments, with extra levels of growling bass and curious noises to send us deep into the uncanny….. #aoty2024

3) Mark Templeton: ‘Two Verses’. Electronic music that seems to breathe on its own, coughing through its spidery rhythms, wonky pitched hits and spiraling oscillations and wheezing into its various saturations and fluttering falls. Lovely stuff…. #aoty2024

4) Loidis ’One Day’. Brian Leeds (Huerco S.) assumes his ultimate deep house and techno form as Loidis with an hour-long album of micro-dosed, dub wise delicacies. Fans of Shinichi Atobe (also in this list) will find much to love here… #aoty2024

5) Shinichi Atobe: ‘Discipline’. Atobe lets the music do the talking in typically emotively nuanced and special style on his 7th album ‘Discipline’, offering further refinements of prevailing, salient ‘90s deep house, dub techno and ambient scenes cultivated and pruned to near perfection. #aoty2024

6) Objekt: ‘Ganzfeld’. Club mutator Objekt mints their Kapsela label with a 10 year reissue of classic ‘Ganzfeld’ reinforced by Djrum, Piezo and Ulla remixes that pull it in all directions. #aoty2024
