1: Squid - Bright Green Field
2: KMRU - Logue
3: Skee Mask - Pool
4: Black Midi - Cavalcade

Flagging Nia Archives brilliant Headz Gone West EP of the ones that miss out, because I haven’t seen it mentioned on here yet.

  1. Mdou Moctar - Afrique Victime
  2. Kareem Ali - Quantum Blackness
  3. Bachelor - Doomin’ Sun
  4. Loscil - Clara

I guess Black Midi deserves a special mention. First listen I was basically “what the shit is this garbage?”, but I tried two more times and it’s possible it will eventually be my album of the month. Not there yet though.

I’ve been scanning this thread for albums I’ve missed and seeing this one was one 39 minute piece I scanned a few places on the track at first and was a bit bemused, but I’ve left it running and it is really oddly compelling for what seems to be literally just whirrs, clicks and beeps.

I’ve sent a few quid over just now.

I think this thread’s been going on for about eight years now.

I’m probably not the only one who’s discovered so many albums not on their radar due to this thread.

If you’ve found some great artists via this thread and able to part with a little donation to the site please do if possible.

1 Voronoi - The Last Three Seconds
2. black midi - Cavalcade
3. Perturbator - Lustful Sacraments
4. Blanck Mass - Mind Killer
5. Fucked Up - Year Of The Horse

At this stage I’d expect to see some of this stuff in the reckoning come Yuletide. More time needed with Fucked Up’s equine epic. Dipping back into Squid as it has many moments to like, but it’s just not grabbing me as a whole quite yet.
