Though we do not review compilations but extremely rarely, there is no denying that some which are floating in the most random air space call out for a serious listen. We located four recent, and forthcoming, that are strong contenders for your attention. The four collections below represent a wide ranging international scope in experimental and electronic music – something for everyone. Some of these albums include exclusive material, and otherwise historically unreleased tracks.

We start with the extremely timely set with a big heart, and a conscience, from Washington DC’s Fuzzy Panda Recording Company and their effort, End Family Separation. This collection includes strong efforts of ambient and abstract works by Tag Cloud, BLK w/BEAR, Small Craft
