Drowned In Sound's electronic music column returns under new management...»
It seemed appropriate, then, to use this final transmission from me as an excuse to take a look backward through some of the year's more obscure/less widely distributed album releases in the electronic music spectrum. It's hardly intended to be comprehensive, more a chance to take personal stock of the year gone by and offer some recommendations to people bored with the stagnant homogeneity of most mainstream mags/websites' end of year lists. So here's an armchair dancefloor top 10: ten records that deserve your undivided love and attention, and warrant careful (and very loud) listening. I hope you find something worth loving in here.»
With this edition of armchair dancefloor we’re going in simple: all new music, no frills.

The year’s release schedule is warming up nicely. Without further ado, here are the records that have been constantly soundtracking recent weeks. There are quite a few of them, it’s been a good few weeks.»
This edition of armchair dancefloor marks a convergence point. As the dividing lines between what does and doesn’t constitute ‘bass music’ grow ever thinner, it feels like a worthwhile exercise to incorporate our bass column, Subliminal Transmissions, into a thicker, heavier and more muscular single beast. So here we have it: still rounding up the best in experimental and electronic sounds, armchair dancefloor will now also feature interviews, thoughts and ideas about the UK scene’s current state of play. So to kick off this week, we launch straight into a chat with Bristolian bass crossover man Addison Groove, who performs live at BLOC this weekend...»
Welcome to the latest edition of armchair dancefloor, where we take a swift tryst round the twisted copper wires and fried circuits of this month’s electronic and experimental music releases. In lieu of a guest mix, here’s instead a small selection»

armchair dancefloor details the recent electronic releases it's most worth hunting down. In our opinion, that is. We're not god. This time we're also proud to include a mix from 10-20, who's sequenced a half-hour of his inimitable abstract techno solely for your enjoyment. »
On top of your regular round-up of the electronic releases it's worth directing your purchasing power at, Camden Town's Blue Daisy contributes the next installment in the armchair dancefloor mix series.
