Neal Francis, Return to Zero
The Chicago-based soul artist finds the funk in digitized-disco on his third album, radiating a glow only known to those who live life on illuminated dance floors.

Kronos Quartet + Mary Kouyoumdjian, Witness
Recorded in remembrance of the victims of the Armenian genocide, the quartet’s work with the documentarian-composer is at turns gorgeous, brutal, and awe-stricken.

Rebecca Black, Salvation
An intoxicating blend of Y2K aesthetics and bubblegum pop, Black’s second album is a celebration of her musical evolution from internet laughing stock to hyperpop powerhouse.
