We’re still getting some great new releases despite being so late in the year. What’s on your radar?

Saint Etienne - The Night

90s survivors with meditative beatless ambient pop. Really looking forward to hearing this.

Roc Marciano & The Alchemist - The Skeleton Key

One of the most consistent rappers of recent years with another collab with legendary producer The Alchemist.

And I’m going to link to this even though it came out last week (albeit Boomkat only): dub techno from elusive Japanese producer.

Mickey Callisto - Supernova

FFO - Queen, Robbie Williams. Not his best and the drums sound a bit awkward but still a banger.

Was very impressed by the lead single of this. Jazz set from Tortoise founding member - improvised pieces which is even more impressive given the coherence on offer. Well reviewed and this will almost definitely be in my top 2 Jazz releases of the year. Would have to be special to topple Kamasi from the No1 spot, mind.

Seems like a really great recording, the individual instruments are all so clear!

I had no idea there was a new Argwaan album coming. I loved 2021’s In A Surge Of Anguish but was less enamoured with 2023’s follow up. Let’s see if the Dutch atmo black metaller’s album number three grabs me like the first did.

Search Results - Hot Night EP

Lo-fi indie rock. Following up last year’s debut album with another cassette EP. I’ve read there’s a new album coming next year recorded by Mikey Young so this might be a clear out of the lo-fi vaults before that.
