New Music

Pulselovers – Northern Minimalism 4 (Lunar Module) / 2CD collection of remixes of tracks from Northern Minimalism 1-3 (a 7”, a 10” & an LP). Everyone in a stellar cast steps up, but it’s especially noteworthy that there’s a couple from the late Rainer Buchmüller (as Fred Und Luna) –spacediscojeff`

Throwing Shapes – S/T (WRWTFWW) / this album is ridiculously good – A Journey of Giraffes

Whirling Hall of Knives – WHOK Lab Emissions Vol. III

Flur – Plunge / This is a lovely album of atmospheric jazz meditations from a UK trio. And another example of fantastic contemporary harp! Golden Age of Harp continues! – Listening Habit

Chuter – Achromatism / A masterpiece in quiet, restrained music – Brandon Invergo

Survey Channel – Functional Gloss / lovely bit of crunchy afternoon ambience – Moth Effect

ClockDVA – White Souls In Black Suits (h/t Stefan)

Index for Working Musik – Which Direction Goes The Beam / Excellent post Punk record via London. Came out April this year – Dillon

General Output – Jura / A little late to this 90s influenced electronica gem with Scottish stylings and a vinyl press by @seabassvinyl.bsky.social just down the road – FRBH Recordings

Listening Recommendations

Time Wharp – Ingenue / Synths and sax go together so well. Check out the opening track on this beautiful record for a great example of this winning combination – Record Crates United

Black Country, New Road – Ants From Up There / not to hop on the hype train, but I honestly think this is one of the best albums of the past five years or so ngl – Full of Helena
