I really like the first track on Ion Driver's re:Start short player.  Great country guitar-y sound.  The other tracks were a bit different - not as easy listening.

 

Subaqueous - Slipstream is my pick of the week.  Great sounds, including some cello in there.  I do love stringed instruments, especially when heard in electronic music.  Subaqueous once again straddles a line between downtempo and bass, and folk I suppose too, to a degree.  Just lovely.

 

Living Light - Tales From The Karman Line 2: Atmospheres also gets an honourable mention.  More nice tunes from Living Light.  Like her style a lot, though this EP seems to be more down-down tempo, around the 70-80 BPM range, rather than the 90-100 which I think I prefer.  But still great, and very easy to listen to.

Very happy to see a fresh album from Abakus, I love his downtempo synth grooves, sexy music! Heavenchord's EP is good enough but not as great as his latest album on Cold Tear Records. As for my ambient needs, both Autumn of Communion and Thomas P. Heckmann are doing it really well

I enjoyed new Mr Bill

New Sattyananda was also interesting to check out, but he became so gloomy and dark recently..

Operentzia - I loved last year's Trance Ober Enz album, this new one's sounding just as good for the first couple of tracks but it starts to get a little too uptempo for my tastes after that.

 

Sky Technology - gonna have to wait a couple weeks for this one to appear on bandcamp, but the samples on the psyshop link sound amazing, definitely goachill album of the year contender.

 

Tuval S - nice surprise debut from half of the Sybins project, which previously had a release on Mystic Sound Records.

 

Abakus - definitely nice to see a new one by him, and I'm liking most of the tracks but avoiding the first and last vocal tracks like the plague.

 

Blue Forest - usually I don't post live sets but this is some good stuff.
