2019 has been wacky-crazy thus and shows no signs of stopping. Many amazing releases are slated to drop and more new projects are seeing the light of day, everyday. He are some recent releases that we think are worth your time and attention. You just have to decide for yourself if our opinions matter to you.
Nolan Garrett
United States
Nolan brings a big Stereolab/Ghost Box Records feel with his ditty ‘Morning’. With the passage of time we just have to accept that every morning will eventually say goodbye.
Elz and the Cult
Turkey
A sound that would fit nicely into an Instruments of Discipline dj set, this Turkish outfit brings the dark beats and heavily distorted vocals to make your booty shake and bones quake.
Jaune
France
With a forever crush on French language pop music, we present to you Jaune and his beautifully playful new track ‘En Sommeil’. Let it lift your spirit and wipe your tears.
Emmit Fenn
United States
What at first seems hollow and angst filled transforms into something emotional and driving. The build is long but worth the wait.
Robert Connely Farr & the Rebeltone Boys
United States
Deep blues, heavy soul with a rock & roll attitude abound in this smokey headbanger. All we can say is that we want to shoot whisky with the Devil in the Dirty South after this one.
Eye of Doom
Canada
Bringing the Sabbathian mood back to the forest, we find Eye of Doom huddled with their heads bowed, doing nefarious things, in the wilds of Canada. Groovy, doomy, get some.
Zanibar Aliens
Portugal
Skate or don’t, Zanibar Aliens don’t give a shit. Grab a PBR, a joint, your board, and let’s ride.
Maria Grönlund
Sweden
Delicately textured piano wash over your relaxing mind when listening to Maria Grölund’s ‘June and Me” movement. Something to lighten the heavy load of a Berlin winter.
Machinefabriek ft. Marissa Nadler
Netherlands
This piece experiments with electronics and voice to create something wholly new but somehow familiar. Like coming back to a city you once lived in after being away for years.
Hats Off Gentlemen It’s Adequate
United Kingdom
For fans of Low, Stars Of The Lid, and the lighter moments of Grails. The slow moving arch of the song hints at impending doom or curiousity, we’ll let you decide.
Dominique Charpentier
France
Dripping with the emotion and delicate touch only known to contemporary French composers, Dominique Charpentier’s ‘L’attente’ is a quiet masterpiece meant to be enjoyed in contemplative moods.
New Methods
United States
The heaviest track in this edition of N&N, New Methods bring the power. “Endless Aggression’ clocks in at exactly 2 minutes but that’s ok, you probably couldn’t handle any more.
