  3. Spanish Love Songs
  4. Caribou

Lanterns on the Lake my clear number one and a bit of an obsession at the moment. Gorgeous and their best yet for me.

Biggest disappointment for me was Grimes - I liked art angels but found the new one borderline unlistenable.

Good month on the whole though and lots else to catch up on still.

A great month for jazz, but Grimes takes the top spot. Like her or not, she’s releasing music like nobody else in my view. Extra bonus points awarded for the audacity of 4ÆM.

1. Grimes - Miss Anthropocene
2. Gil Scott-Heron & Makaya McCraven - We’re New Again
3. Nyx Nótt - Aux Pieds de la Nuit
4. Moses Boyd - Dark Matter
5. Caribou - Suddenly

Nyx Nótt was my surprise find of the month. I was tempted to push up further, but settled on third. Limited coverage outside of The Quietus, but a beautiful project.

  2. Futuro Pelo - A Bigger Splash
  3. Sol Seppy - I Am As You Are, Pt 1

  5. Mieko Shimizu - I Bloom
  1. Califone - Echo Mine
  2. Agnes Obel - Myopia
  3. Douglas Dare - Milkteeth
  4. Shelf Nunny - Utangatta
  5. Yani Martinelli - Astral

Not entirely sure Caribou is my number one yet, but will put it there for now.

(Sol Seppy would be recommended to anyone who liked the Agnes Obel album. Although unfortunately I didn’t like the Agnes album as much as her previous music, especially her debut which is still brilliant)

  5. Beach Bunny

Best GBV album since August By Cake to my ears, covers loads of their best styles. Soccer Mommy sounds a touch too restrained but it’s still great and will only improve over time. LOTL has a few absolute beauties on there (especially Every Atom) and the last two are just good fun indie rock albums
