Morning all

And a new Keaton Heston EP
Primarily about Space Afrika for me.
Ambient-electronica, but filtered through a post-hyperdub lens. Probably FFO Andy Stott, KMRU, Huerco S etc.
Also going to try to grab a copy of @colossalhorse’s split tape with Salvatore Mercatante when it’s released later today.
Sugar Horse release their debut album.
Ffo sludge metal, noise rock, McLusky.
Turnstile sounds interesting on skim listen.
Currently enjoying Indigo De Souza’s album on the way to work.
New album by the bug (sorry for lack of descriptions I’m still in bed)
Huge release day today. Here’s three from the top of the list.
The Bug - Fire
Big booming brassy sounds of dub, dancheall, grime, hip hop.
Yann Tiersen - Kerber
Billed as the most electronic work from the Amelie soundtrack composer.
Kiefer - When There’s Love Around
Jazz of the funky Soulful variety from the Grammy-winning producer of Anderson.Paak’s Ventura.
Turnstile bring the hardcore Punk
Halsey brings Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross
Bendik Giske
Solo sax along the lines of Colin Stetson, but with some beautiful electronic flourishes. Cruising is gorgeous.
All about Sugar Horse, Turnstile and The Bronx today
Field Works - Maples, Ash, and Oaks: Cedars Instrumentals
a mesmerizing soundtrack for a long walk in the woods, made up of pedal steel, oud, guitar, hurdy-gurdy, and piano
Westside Gunn - Hitler Wears Hermes 8: Sincerely Adolf
Never understated rap from the Griselda founder, featuring Conway the Machine, Benny the Butcher, Boldy James, Lil Wayne, Stove God Cooks…
Ngaiire - 3
Pop R&B from Papa New Guinea via Australia (and Australian Idol).
Kiefer, The Bug and Westside Gunn are the big ones for me today.
the new Bronx is off to a really good start
The Keaton Henson and Julian baker song is a beauty
Web Web - Web Max
German rapper/producer Max Herre and Italian-German pianist Roberto Di Gioia become the odd couple of spiritual jazz, attracting guest spots from Mulatu Astatke and Brandee Younger
Kenny Garret - Sounds From the Ancestors
A “study of the West African influence on pan-American music from Afro-Cuban idioms and jazz to gospel, hip-hop and R&B” from the modal modernist alto sax player who had played with Miles Davis, Art Blakey, Duke Ellington…
A couple of heavier releases I’ll be checking out. The new Fluisteraars album/EP is out;
New album by Swedish atmo black band Wormwood
and the new one by US Folk/black metal band Windfaerer
Been really looking forward to this one. Singles have been killer, and first impressions are good to these ears.
Keaton Heston, Haiku Salut, Yann Tiersen, Field Works, and Indigo De Souza also for me (adding a link for the latter):
Indigo De Souza - Any Shape You Take
Macy Rodman - Unbelievable Animals
This popped up today as Shamir sings on a song (and signed her to his label). Sounds interesting and catchy so far.
“The massive, sugary, propulsive sound of the record — confession and heartbreak set to club-ready beats with ‘90s radio rock inflections — is the sound of reemergence, of rebirth, the return to the dance floor.”
Water From Your Eyes - Structure
From Paste Magazine: “acoustic daydreams often precede gently grating electronics, and ballads co-exist with quirky dance numbers”
Son Lux - Tomorrows Reworks Part 1
Another Son Lux release, but remixes/reworks this time. Including one by Emily Wells.
TSHA - OnlyL
Just a three track ep, sounds kind of like a female Caribou.
ok, going to dive into Haiku Salut and Yann Tiersen now!
Steve Gunn of course.
Courtney Barnett doing I’ll be your mirror.
