Anastasia Kristensen to release debut album in May
Anastasia Kristensen is set to put out her debut album ‘Bestiarium Sombre’ on May 8 via Intercept Records.
Writing about the nine-track release on Instagram, the Copenhagen-based artist said: “Bestiarium Sombre is a kaleidoscopic place of sacred dances, where neon silhouettes of mysterious creatures gyrate through the balmy darkness. Influenced by the free spirit of original UK genres bleep and jungle, with an added dose of dubbed-out IDM, the album harks back to a time before the generic greyscale of tasteful techno set in.”
The first single ‘Magpie Song’ is out now, which starts atmospherically before journeying into more off-kilter realms.

Zora Jones drops first solo project in five years ‘ANGEL CRISIS’
Zora Jones has released a new six-track EP ‘ANGEL CRISIS’, marking her first solo project in five years. It lands via her new creative platform Bellyfat.
"The past years of my life have been absolutely insane in many ways, good and bad, with 2025 being simultaneously the most difficult but also the most transformative and cathartic year... I lost a lot, but I won myself back. The music on this EP is part of this transformation too… I wanted it to be a love letter to club music, which will always be a part of me, but already play with some sounds and ideas of what will fully unfold on the album. infinite love to anyone who takes time to listen to it, wouldn’t be able to do this without every single one of you," says the Barcelona-based artist.

Charity ambient compilation ‘Sleep Cycles’ is coming out via Reel Long Overdub
A new 14-track compilation ‘Sleep Cycles’ is coming out on Reel Long Overdub on March 6.
The V?A release traces “the arc of a full sleep cycle’: - Hypnagogia (Sleep Onset); Light Sleep (Stage 1–2 NREM); Deep Sleep (Stage 3 NREM); REM Sleep (Dream Sleep); and Hypnopompia (Waking Up).
It was curated by Yvos and Gen Taylor, and features tracks from Yvos, So Oishi, Forever, Prayer, Hanaphora, Hiranya, Monophonik, Colombian Drone Mafia, soo:k, Fledgling, Torom, Dom Kirtley, Stella Z and Zar.
Speaking about his contribution ‘Rowing A Boat’. So Oishi says: “In Japanese, the expression “row a boat” can be used as a metaphor for dozing off, because the nodding motion of someone falling asleep resembles the act of rowing a boat. As the brain transitions into the sleep phase, random images often appear in dreams. I’d like to try expressing that state using fragments of field recordings that randomly emerge and fade away.”
Profits will donated to Bayt Al Mafatih, supporting displaced Palestinian families in Cairo, and Human Appeal, supporting Palestinians in Gaza.
