DOORS 7 / MUSIC 8

Lucky Numbers & True Weight, the fourth full-length by the New York City artist Cube, continues to push to the surface what has been hiding in plain sight all along: the artist’s ability to write memorable songs that synthesize elements from a variety of left-field genres into its own sonic world. The grit of noise; the ammo splay of digital hardcore; the experimentation of footwork; the rigor of industrial and techno; all of this exists here on more or less equal footing. These musical languages are deployed by the artist—real name: Adam Keith—as a means of sustaining an atmosphere, both uneasy and ecstatic, that plays out through the duration of the project.

Ruth Mascelli of New Orleans no wave/glam/industrial group Special Interest. A Night At The Baths is a progression from their previous work under the Psychic Hotline moniker, as well as the electronic rhythms they supply as part of Special Interest, drawing on techno, acid house and ambient music. An album as journey in the best sense, starting with the late night pulse-racing dancefloor menace of “Sauna” and ending with the melancholy dawn chorus of “Missing Men”, with a strong narrative arc in between, told through a deft use of instrumental textures.

After their IMDS single turned heads in 2023 with its moody, digital atmosphere and erratic pulse, Content Blocks return with their highly anticipated debut tape, No Down Whisper—a collection of fevered, fractured, and entrancing sounds that pushes their boundaries further into ambient, post-punk, and experimental territory.
