Kris Keyser's long overdue return (and first full-length release) packs the same powerful danceable songs you've come to expect, along with some unexpected twists and turns. Reviver is the culmination of nearly a half-decade of meticulous tracking, battle-testing, and iteration. Recorded and mixed by Luke Silas and mastered by Jeremiah Johnson.

On an autumn 2011 day on the western edge of Tokyo, an unusual thunder was rumbling beneath the quiet streets of Kōenji. Being pumped through a powerful soundsystem in a subterranean venue were huge slabs of abstract, densely textured synthesis and chattering noise percussion. The origin: the ⅛" headphone jack of a Game Boy in the hands of pioneering errorist notendo. The result: a pummelling, half-hour exercise in rough-edged tones and hypnotizing rhythms, and, consistent with notendo's broader output — making the digital physical with his Glitchaus concept label, and his groundbreaking visual work — it was hard to imagine anything else quite like it. Captured here is a unique sound, recorded at a unique moment. Those in the audience that night can attest to the wall-shaking impact — and now with the release of Live In Tokyo, you can too.

Building on a decade of immersion in the obscurest corners of the Japanese musical underground, Tokyo's Aonami emerges from the shadows to drop the white-hot Robokick Is My Copilot EP Vol. 1 chip mixtape. Styles and moods collide in a beautiful C30 free-for-all; where tracks like the subdued, percolating pop of "Moppy," the confounding yet charming "Litch," the stomping chip-metal of "Grind Haus," and five more are thrown together to coexist in an unlikely harmony. A gorgeous MimiCof remix concludes the affair, closing the circle on a signature release. Hit the auto-reverse.
