❤️🐈 New Releases 14th Feb 2025 🐈❤️

Another New release Friday is here, what’s on your lists?

It’s a Valentine’s Day Rapstravaganza for me…

Westside Gunn - 12

Unsurprisingly given the title, this is the 12th installment of Westside’s HWH series of mixtapes. Stove God Cooks features heavily.

Black Milk & Fat Ray - Food From The Gods

Black Milk on the beats, Fat Ray on the raps & a smattering of fellow Detroiter’s on the features, Danny Brown, Guilty Simpson & Bruiser Wolf.

Brother Ali & Ant - Satisfied Soul

Ali links up with producer Ant (1 half of Atmosphere) for his first album on Mello Music.

MichaelAngelo, Crimeapple & Primo Profit - Escama

First new Crimeapple project of the year, reuniting once again with producer Michaelangelo & bringing Primo Profit along for the ride.

Maze Overlay & Slang Hugh - Word

First album of the year for Phoenix rapper Maze Overlay & despite cover artwork which will only add to @paulo 's impression of him as “grimey looking” the look doesn’t seem to be holding back his progress with this album being put out by Fat Beats.

hey, nothing - 33° (EP)

John Glacier - Like a Ribbon

British alt rap? Sounds like it might be very hazy and warped, full of ideas. Guardian gave it a 5 star rave

A pity that so much of this was released before today (only 3 tracks are new to me I think) but it’s all killer. She’s extremely talented.

Faerybabyy - jabbermouth

Lofi post punk

Winona Fighter - My Apologies To The Chef
Breezy indie tinged pop punk

Two fewer songs it would hit the @Funkhouser ratio.

Can’t quite pin what this reminds me of, a more aggressive Beths? A snarkier Destroy Boys?

Manic Street Preachers - Critical Thinking

Always had a soft spot for the Manics

The Delines - Mr. Luck & Ms. Doom

Soulful alt country from Willy Vlautin of Richmond Fontaine and singer Amy Boone. Loved their last record, The Sea Drift, so looking forward to this.

Kestrels - Better Wonder

Good shoegazey stuff from Halifax, Nova Scotia. Their fifth album.

Jean Claude Vannier et son orchestre de mandolines

This is a beaut. Vannier composing for mandolin and accordion. His first album since his 2019 collaboration with Mike Patton and I think his first solo album of new material since 1990. FFO Yann Tiersen, Serge Gainsbourg.

HiFi Sean & David McAlmont - Twilight

Downtempo electropop. Companion album to last year’s Daylight by the ex-Soup Dragon with the angelic-voiced McAlmont.

This is the big one for me, can’t wait to listen! I preordered the (inside to out playing!!) vinyl so might wait for that to arrive

Slightly strange release strategy with 2/3 released as EPs, and another EP released today on the day of the LP with the rest of them.

Fantastic Twins - Suite of Rooms

EP/mini-album from French artist Julienne Dessagne reworked from a piece about Theseus and the Minotaur made for a contemporary dance production. Suite of Rooms is “a mesmerizing odyssey of leftfield techno, exquisite kosmische, and vintage soundtrack atmospheres”.

The Nightmares - Fire In Heaven

Indie rock from Newport (the Welsh one) with a little hint of emo to it.

ODDLY - Swerve

Kyoto “odd rock” debut album. “Odd rock” = dream pop-ish indie rock imho.

Kestrels have that Shoegaze guitar sound nailed

Bartees Strange - Horror

A multi-genre triumph from a musician confronting insular fears and a world at odds with eccentrics.
