Machinefabriek’s “Spelonk” reviewed by Aural Aggravation: “Spelonk grows in depth and darkness, becoming increasingly dark, strange, and unsettling. Rutger Zuydervelt makes a lot out of very little, to subtle but strong effect.” auralaggravation.com/2026/01/12/m... @machinefabriek.bsky.social

Bruno Duplant’s “Écouter les Fantômes” reviewed by @soundprojector.bsky.social "Duplant has turned in some ultra-minimal offerings (…) in previous years, but this one has more exciting content per square inch, and is more accessible than some of his delightful but impenetrable sonic riddles."

Great review of Durán Vázquez & Kloob’s album on Blow Up! Copies are still available at www.cronicaelectronica.org/243/
![Review of the album in Blow Up, reading: Questo disco inizia come una perfetta triangolazione tra Ben Frost, Thomas Köner e Philip Jeck, poi prende vie più personali, come una esplorazione inquieta di paesaggi che vorrebbero essere futuribili ma sono invece impiantati nella nostra realtà, a metà strada tra "Twin Picks" e "Solaris". Di Frost ritroviamo la forza tellurica, di Köner un certo pulsare profondo, di Jeck il senso ciclico e meditante della temporalità, di "Twin Picks" 'indugiare indagatore visionario e inquieto, di "Solaris" la sostanza metafisica. Un lavoro decisamente consistente. L'ispirazione viene dallo scrittore gallese Arthur Machen che, a cavallo tra '800 e '900, muovendosi tra fantasy ed horror, iniziò il genere science fiction. Peccato il disco sia arrivato tardi per essere inserito tra i dischi dell'anno. [8.4] Girolamo Dal Maso](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:d2zspkhdkorlbbt4udzwdk2h/bafkreibijxhmtdx33jysowirnvmyr53zwmupzp3fgcsgljnyskmlw7ejhe@jpeg)

Let's look back at Crónica in 2025! In spite of the usual hardships that come with being an artist-run and non-profit label, was a fantastic year of releases that kicked off with a collaboration between Jérôme Noetinger and @c, “Expansão” www.cronicaelectronica.org/229/

Why I Quit Streaming And Got Back Into Cassettes

AMN Reviews: Durán Vázquez + Kloob – Vinum Sabbati, In the Dawn of Science Fiction (2025; Crónica)
Every so often you might start thinking that you've heard all that the experimental ambient genre has to offer. Then an album like this one comes along. A collaboration between long-time acquaintances Durán Vázquez and Dani Kloob, Vinum Sabbati, In the Dawn of Science Fiction is a loose tribute to the works of author Arthur Machen. It certainly evokes horror and sci-fi tropes, with deep drones, shifting atmospheric elements, and hazy textures.
