Angel Marcloid’s newest as Fireplace-Toolz—one in all her many aliases—collects 14 antsy compositions recorded over the previous 4 years, throughout which era she sallied deeper into deathcore and dying steel, she mentioned in press supplies. Infernal vocals crawl throughout her wondrously maximalist soundscapes, wraithlike interlopers in a euphoric swirl of jazz fusion, Midwest emo, and digital new age. Contributors embody Sam Greenfield, Nylist, Lipsticism, and Cole Pulice, amongst others.

Jeff Mills: The Eye Witness [Axis]
Techno originator Jeff Mills, now given to beguiling and bold digital compositions, takes a decidedly big-picture view of world affairs on The Eye Witness, an idea album of types about “the leftover residue of harsh actuality so impactful that it shapes the way in which you think about, envision and calculate your place in regard to all the things and everybody round you,” as he put it in press supplies. The result’s a set of characteristically intricate, ambient symphonies that border neoclassical, as on “Menticide,” one in all a number of tracks involved with malign influences on public thought.
