I have been getting into the habit of compiling quarterly top tens to help visitors navigate the flow of free music on Ektoplazm. With a new release every two or three days on average there is a lot to listen to! Here are ten songs from recent months that I encourage everyone to try out. As usual, this list is in no particular order.
Pekkanikkarinen Behind The Veil Of Sleep [Freudian Slip Records & People Of The Butterflies] Captivating downtempo experiments from Finland. Comparisons with Shpongle are apt but this is entirely original.

Mukti Monoblock [Ektoplazm] Hypnotic, minimal, and extremely atmospheric, this is a deceptively simple masterpiece of American psytrance.

Exelization The Paradox Fusing old school energy with hard South African psytrance vibes, Exelization has created something that sounds to my ears like a modern blend of Ka-Sol and Etnica.

Perfect Blind Syncope [Akashic Records] Deeply enchanting Croatian chill with gorgeous melodies that remind me of an old song by the Pleiadians (Seven Sisters).
