6.

Hudson Mohawke - Lantern
June 16, 2015
Critic Score
72
28 reviews

On Lantern, Mohawke's long-anticipated followup, the Glaswegian producer eschews the bombast he's embraced these last few years for something more mature, songwriterly and, yes, restrained.

5.

Floating Points - Elaenia
November 6, 2015
Critic Score
83
25 reviews

What makes his debut so appealing is that Shepherd never sounds too rigidly loyal to any genre or sound, making Elaenia a fascinating and confident debut from a tenured rookie.

4.

Four Tet - Morning/Evening
June 21, 2015
Critic Score
74
21 reviews

Morning/Evening is a gorgeous, daring album that draws its greatest inspiration from a much-maligned genre most often associated with John Tesh and Yanni.

3.

Holly Herndon - Platform
May 19, 2015
Critic Score
79
29 reviews

The gut-wrenching dynamics and pinpoint accuracy of her music stand out immediately, but where previously she has used these tools with deft restraint, Platform finds her letting it flow unabated.

2.

Oneohtrix Point Never - Garden of Delete
November 13, 2015
Critic Score
78
32 reviews

A sound collage like no other, Garden of Delete finds Lopatin engaging listeners with an album that almost defies description.

1.

Jamie xx - In Colour
June 1, 2015
Critic Score
83
45 reviews

In Colour is a master class in deftness.
