Review: Kevin 'BAT' Palmer is certainly on a roll at the moment, from his recent collaboration with BNJMN on the De-Re-Constructions album to the Boa release with long-time collaborator Ovis Aurum. After imparting some early archival recordings to Astro:Dynamics for the Excavated Tapes 1992-1999, Vol. 1 cassette back in 2013, he's back with another round of fine otherworldly sonics from the vaults. The tones range from serene melodic tones to dusty downtempo excursions that all fit within the broad remit of BAT sounds, framed in short doodles that provide another insight into a singular artist.

Review: Forged from a transatlantic exchange of sounds, pastoral house maverick Bnjmn and wayfaring noise wielder Best Available Technology have spent the past few years piecing together this album for Astro:Dynamics. Forming a logical middle ground between the two artists respective styles, De/Re-Constructions glides between atmospheric textural studies and plaintive, crackling leftfield house with ease. There's spinnable material available in the shape of "Tred", but this is largely a headphones affair to get lost in, from the cyclical twitterings of "Wired" to tense industrial reduction "Rift". It rarely stays in one place and yet never feels disjointed, which is impressive given the distinct minds at work on this unique project.

Review: It's hard to believe that such leftfield excursions could be the work of the vocalist on the ubiquitous "We Are Your Friends" electro-house anthem, but then Astro:Dynamics is the kind of label that loves to flout convention and confound expectation. Cardamon Copy is a tape-centric voyage into unhinged tones and troubled rhythms, taking in an obtuse production style and getting deep into experimentation. It's not an exclusively dark experience, as the tender melodies of "Eggshells" demonstrates with its ghostly chords and notes, while "Fauns" revels in a swell of straining synth lines with a sunkissed finish. There are plenty more morose moments too, ensuring you don't find too much to cling onto on this particularly wild ride.

Review: Staggering and stuttering his way beyond his own Surf Kill imprint (which he runs with fellow experimentalist Cupp Cave) in a woozy fog of awkward rhythms and unlikely sound pairings, Dynooo makes the move to Astro:Dynamics to impart his worldly sound collages. This isn't as abstract as you might think with central melodic themes running through the tracks, and at times discernible rhythms come flailing through the mist. For every tangible moment though, Dynooo is keen to throw in a curveball that sets that quantised notion askew or undercuts the soothing pad. It makes for an album equal parts challenging and enjoyable, championing all the relevant qualities that timeless electronica should be based on.
