Am at 60 songs on the playlist of my favourites. What have you been loving? And more pertinently what else do you think I might like?
Laura Marling - Nothing, Not Nearly
New Grizzly Bear is pretty great too as well as new LCD Soundsystem! Thank God my time machine worked and itâs 2007 again.

Came here to post new Grizzly Bear, itâs lovely.
Iâd add Brokenlegged by Sinai Vessel which Iâve been enjoying a lot. The whole record really, but Brokenlegged is probably the biggest tune.
Just looked this up. Is that the right song title? Seems to be the name of the album.
Yes youâre right! I meant âLooseleafâ
this is my favourite track right now
https://soundcloud.com/user-616177336-57135143/maestro-little-caprice
Itâs from the Scottish/French duo Maestro who are on the french label Tigersushi and put out their debut LP Mountains of Madness in 2015
I guess this is the first glimpse of something from their next LP - not on spotify yet
Itâs a woozy summer slowpaced thing with melty synths, flanged guitars, bird noises, walk on the wildside backing vox and a minimal sung/spoken lyric. Itâs like Arab Strap doing a drunk-in-the-long-grass version of Pulpâs Legendary Girlfriend produced by Boards of Canada with some stolen Prince synth presets or something
itâs absolutely adorable. If the album is all like this I canât wait
Hereâs 5 which spring to mind, seany
This is my pick for Julie Byrne, but good to see her on your list:
GAS · Song · 2017
Elbow · Song · 2017

This is my song of the year so far
Can tell itâs gonna be one of those I pretty much ruin for myself by playing it too much.

Have been adding bits. Keep your ideas coming.
âBubblegumâ by Confidence Man is one of my favourites from the year. Just so irresistably poppy. Also âGrand Dereglementâ by Francois & The Atlas Mountains and âTwist Your Armâ by Ten FĂ©.
This has been stuck in my head for weeks
Algiers - underside of power

Itâs so good! Draws from dub, dancehall, and psy. Proper kaleidoscopic summery fun.
Got to have Japandroids âNear to the Wild Heart of Lifeâ on this list.
