Ólafur Arnalds & Talos, A Dawning
This seamless collaboration fuses the Icelandic composer’s gentle, piano-based soundscapes with the late Irish artist’s poignant electronica and singular voice without ever feeling saccharine.
Gina Birch, Trouble
This second solo LP moves further into the Raincoats co-founder’s melodic mix of dub-rock, neo-jazz, skeletal R&B, and space-pop as she continues to eschew creature comforts.
Chat Pile, This Dungeon Earth/Remove Your Skin Please [Reissue]
This single-vinyl compendium welds together the two EP releases that preceded the OKC sludge-rockers’ formal introduction to the unwitting masses.
