slenderbodies - before
74

slenderbodies go for quite a Kawala-esque sound with their most recent single, and in all fairness it works pretty well

Liily - MORE
84

I was a big fan of their debut EP but not so much of what followed, however this track is definitely a step back in the direction - the energy that emanates here is amazing

Wunderhorse - July
70

Want to like it, but the vocals are way below what I'd come to expect from Wunderhorse and they actually become quite the obstacle to enjoying the track

Islet - Soft Fascination
61

Starts off ok but the last tracks sound really quite weak and poorly made. At only 35 mins it's not too bad, but nothing worth returning to

Iglooghost - Tidal Memory Exo
74

Decent, but not that much stands out to me as memorable. A good listen but nothing all too special

Amen Dunes - Death Jokes
61

Really disjointed, and the vocals really underwhelmed for me. Not the most enjoyable listen

twikipedia - for the rest of your life
85

Strong parannoul vibes here, the only thing lacking is the vocals for me - they just don't land as often as they should and they feel quite empty at times. A load of the tracks are really solid though and I can definitely see myself coming back not only to this album, but to future twikipedia releases

Knocked Loose - You Won't Go Before You're Supposed To
88

LOUD LOUD LOUD

I'm generally not that familiar with Knocked Loose, not am I really that into metal as a genre but I had checked out the singles leading up to this album out of curiosity as they had great scores. I was intrigued but the singles as standalone tracks didn't quite make me want to return to them, but seeing this album had been released I knew I had to give the full thing a chance!

As someone who knows quite little about this genre, I have to say that I loved some of the vocals ... read more

Jordan Rakei - The Loop
73

It sounds just like everything else Jordan has done recently. That's not necessarily a bad thing especially if you like his sound, but it's a shame that there isn't much development on display here

Lucy Bedroque - Amy
60

Really didn't find this to be anything all that special at all

파란노을 [Parannoul] - 황금빛 강 [Gold River]
95

I swear he just makes musical crack, every single track he releases is addictive

ZOMBIE-CHANG - Bouquet de cigarettes
59

Sounds like a Eurovision entry

Home Counties - Exactly As It Seems
70

Funky, fun, and energetic, but a bit soulless and generic. A decent enough listen but not one to return to.

Camera Obscura - Look To The East, Look To The West
68

Just really failed to do much for me - there are a few solid tracks especially at the start of the album, but as an overall album it just felt quite boring and didn't captivate me all that much at all. It sounds nice and pleasant, but lacks the substance to win me over.

Mdou Moctar - Funeral for Justice
76

Gets really quite samey after a few tracks, but I love the energy and intentions behind this album. The slight switch up in sound towards the end was absolutely needed to prevent this feeling stale.

Rachel Chinouriri - What A Devastating Turn of Events
77

A really open and honest album with some serious charm to it. Unfortunately the sound isn't quite for me, but I can totally see how so many people have fallen in love with this release!

WILLOW - empathogen
80

A really interesting, fun listen here! I've never really listened to WILLOW before so I didn't know quite what to expect, but I really enjoyed the variety of sounds and influences throughout the album, and more importantly how balanced all of these influences were! It wasn't restricted to one genre or recreating one particular sound, but instead jumped from one to another pretty seamlessly! A shame that it was released in the middle of all the childish drama that has stolen the headlines this ... read more

The Lemon Twigs - A Dream Is All We Know
75

The tracks are mostly catchy and fun, but something about them just feels grating and I'm not quite sure what exactly!

Jessica Pratt - Here in the Pitch
84

I really enjoyed this! As someone who's completely unfamiliar with this artist, I instantly found myself loving the vocals and the overall feel of the album! As people have mentioned, there's a real ethereal retro-dreaminess to it all and that makes it such a pleasant listen. There's a few elements I'm not quite as fond of, but overall a really nice release! :)

Kamasi Washington - Fearless Movement
88

It's almost unfair how good he is - this is yet another stunner of a release by Kamasi Washington and one that rivals, if not beats, his previous best works. He cements himself as THE name in the current jazz scene with this album, seamlessly integrating several aspects into the genre and showcasing incredible ambition into one real journey of a listen. Amazing :)
