Overview

The drone music scene sees a mix of archival releases and new projects, including Rosetta's final album 'Temporal Lapse' and Josephine Illingworth's collaboration with Brian Eno's EarthPercent foundation. Meanwhile, established acts like Faust and King Woman continue to engage audiences through reissued material and live performances, while new works from Lamasz & Grandbruit, Halftribe, and Steve Hauschildt expand the genre's sonic boundaries.
