Seventh album for the French project Frànçois & the Atlas Mountains.
A French Indie Pop and Electropop record with touches of Folktronica and Dream Pop.
There are some very interesting details and stylistic choices in the production, but something is missing — a component capable of blending everything together, a binding element.
The voice comes across as fairly anonymous, and the melodic lines are also quite similar to one another.

Third album for the Roman singer Ditonellapiaga.
Electropop that picks here and there to enrich itself with different styles and influences.
There’s a thread connecting this record to the previous album.

Aurora probably only shares the bangs with the rave world, but she fits into the role extremely well, proving that she could adapt to any context.
The productions, and the songs in general, are uneven: ... read more

ifth album for the Japanese band Tokyo Shoegazer.
A tautologically Shoegaze record, with some leanings toward Alternative/Post Rock, but fundamentally coherent with the name they carry.
Huge guitar reverbs, slight bass distortion to make it more grainy, an ethereal female voice lost in the wind, and drums that, while simple, manage to push the tracks forward like the second row in a rugby scrum.
8 tracks for a total of 39 minutes — they don’t reinvent anything, but ... read more
