Very short reviews about releases.
KROMESTAR - PSYCHOACTIVE [Nebula Music Group NMGRLP002, tr. 03]
If it's new and outstanding music, then you can't pass by the new Kromestar album without saying a word! 10 music, dark atmosphere, unadulterated Kromestar atmosphere. A few wobbles, a few finer themes, a few tracks for looking at the stars under the summer sky... Like this "Psychoactive" for example.

PAV4N, Wraz. & Illaman - Yung Ghost [Dark Mode 4ND 077]
A nodding, vocal track, with a dark texture, a sooty background, percussive lyrics with some vocoder. A real "heater"...

Khanum - Militant Movement [Locus Sound LOCUSV 005]
One of the best records of recent times was the Locus Sound double selection, full of great, bass-heavy music. One of my favorites is this Khanum track. Its distorted bass line evokes the world of the best Chestplate records. Simple but perfect tune.

Zha - Voices [NAAN006]
Zha has come out again with a hypnotic track on his self-label's sixth record. As usual, a minimal toolkit, with a constantly repeating main theme created from a sick vocal sample and an insidious sub. A moving, nodding piece.

Glume & Phossa - Diamond [track 9 from Between Surface LP White Peach WPRLP001]
One of the most anticipated releases of recent months was Glume & Phossa's first album, which was eventually released on the White Peach label. This is why I chose "Eclipse", which, although it's more break with the beat section, perfectly captures the world they represent: a dreamlike abstract atmosphere, bits of vocals pitched up and down, a warm sub and the main theme, as so often, some kind of ringing - consists of bongo sounds.
