Venetian Snares - Detrimentalist (Planet Mu)
After the orchestral dramatics of My Downfall, Aaron Funk returns to the territory he knows best with this collection of brutal junglist smashers on the aptly titled Detrimentalist. No Amen is left unturned as Snares channels the melancholia of recent releases and turns it into pure aggression. Nasty, caustic synths collide with splattered breaks at breakneck tempos on this classic Snares release.

Flying Lotus - Los Angeles (Warp)
Flying Lotus' debut album for Warp is Hip-Hop re-imagined as a waking dream, taking new forms and pushing boundaries. The music Lotus makes has been heralded as 'wonky' by certain sections of the press, but this debut is much more impressive than that rather functional term would suggest. This is a deep, soulful and intricate album that's been mixed to perfection. Fresh glints of detail are unearthed on every listen as floating clouds of chords, snippets of voices and exotic percussion float out of the ether.

Daedelus - Love To Make Music To (Ninja Tune)
Daedelus ropes in a bunch of friends to party it up for his third full lengh release on Ninja Tune. Paperboy, Michael Johnson, Erika Rose and Taz Arnold and Om'mas Keith (two thirds of Sa-Ra) all make an appearance as Daedelus shows a blatant disregard for genre classification and mixes up elements of hiphop, soul, techno and rave with his psychedelic spoon.

Ellen Alien - Sool (BPitch Control)
Another fine release from the BPitch head honcho. Ellen Allien places minimal electronics with ambient samples to create something beautiful and engaging. The electro and techno elements that underpin much of the album don’t overpower the subtlety of these tracks.

B12 - Last Days Of Silence (B12)

Techno legends B12 return with the first full-length release on their re-launched B12 label. Last Days Of Silence includes re-masters of old material, new tracks plus live versions and is an amazing package which sounds as pristine and fresh as ever.
