Oklou - choke enough
80

Found this album on Spotify and immediately fell in love with it! I hadn’t been following oklou before this so I was going in blind with no knowledge of the singles or her previous work.

It’s reminiscent of that dreamy, late 90s / early 2000s Europop that I grew up on. It’s incredibly atmospheric and almost new age, with clean production and a glossy glaze over every track. I find it aquatic in a way, with some songs like ‘thank you for recording’ evoking images ... read more

This song doesn’t feel its length at all, the eight minutes just completely melt away the second you hit ‘play’! It’s a soothing, dreamy track that evokes an image of laying in a field during a blissful summer’s day, sleepy and content. Pure serenity.

The production is filled with a hazy warmth, complimented with layered harmonies that perfectly support the soft and emotive performance from Hayden. It meanders in the most enjoyable way, leisurely strolling its way ... read more

Billie Eilish - HIT ME HARD AND SOFT

This feels like very direct artistic growth from her previous two works, as it combines the dark pop of WWAFAWDWG (not typing out the full title lmao) and the more interesting vocal performances of Happier Than Ever.

PinkPantheress - Heaven knows

Love love love this album! It’s fun, punchy, and entertaining with zero skips for me. The production is immaculate, the melodies memorable, and PinkPantheress’ voice never fails to scratch my brain. Her little echoey ‘Yeah!’ adlib singly is one of my favourite things ever and the second it appears in ‘Nice to Meet You’ the album steps up a level for me!

There’s so many moments in this I absolutely love. The opening organ on ‘Another ... read more

Sally Oldfield - Water Bearer
90

I really enjoyed this album! It’s bright, warm, ethereal fantasy-pop that evokes images of sunlight-dotted forests and babbling brooks.

The first half (or so) of this album is much stronger than the second, in my opinion. ‘Water Bearer’, ‘Songs of Quendi’, ‘Mirrors’, and ‘Weaver’ are all captivating little epics in themselves. ‘Water Bearer’ is the standout for me — it’s instantly captivating and submerges you deep ... read more
