MIKE, Showbiz!

The NYC-based rapper’s ninth solo album toes the line between lo-fi, soul, jazz, and ambient electronics, adding a newfound sense of resolve to the grief explored on recent release.

Bonnie “Prince” Billy, The Purple Bird

Created in tribute to his friendship with producer Dave Ferguson, the youthful energy they channel together works well for a no-frills country record that gets so much done with so little.

Kathryn Mohr, Waiting Room

Constricting yet chillingly spacious, the atmosphere of this debut is guided by the achingly human tremble in Mohr’s voice and the tangible weariness of her minimal use of guitar and synth.
