Tired of Big Tech scanning your online data? Why not make your own deep scan of all the lost sound files on your own hard drive, producing an entirely local result? No sooner than Envion wowed us with its beautiful esoteric sonic landscapes, its developer Emiliano drops a...
Boo! Or... Bow! Paulee at Magical Synth Adventure has a lineup of picks for the 13 most haunted synths. I've gotten an advance look at this one, and the chapters reveal the selections (spoiler -- don't read past the video then). What's great about this: these are not your...

Odiv, a young composer from Ahvaz, communes in Shelâl with deeply felt darkness. It's haunted not as a fetish, not as the pastiche musical surplus equivalent of a costume shop, as piles up in so much 'dark' music. But it's a horror that's movingly personal. Maybe it's time...
