Third round of listening suggestions from our followers! See part 1 here and part 2 here.
Cherubs – Baby Huey (Trance Syndicate / Amphetamine Reptile)
via Mrrin213
Digawolf – Yellowstone (Self Released)
Unusually, I kept quiet on the @PolarisPrize long-list, because it has been one of the best lists in ages, however, I do feel the absence of @Digawolf’s ‘Yellowstone’ was a mistake
Produced by Jan de Vroede, with guest Ralph Carney (ao Tom Waits, Frank Black) and a hand assembled band, Yellowstone features songs in both English and Tilcho.

Momo Wandel Soumah – Afro Blue (Buda Musique)
Mad that I had to rely on Spotify’s algorithms to find this – I’m almost angry nobody told me about it before!
via Joe Muggs

Drove home to Delay 1968 by Can

FDG. – Dust / Outlines (Angoisse)
I gotta rep these top shelf mind melters from @FDG___ 🌀⚡️
a collection of secrets / frayed atmospherics / archival fantasies / generative detritus / mangled visions of time / like a shadow cast upon itself

Molchat Doma – S Krish Nashih Domov (Self Released)
via Vogon Laundromat
Versus – Gravity (Ernest Jenning Record Co.)
The Big Takeover is debuting another fantastic new Versus track, y’all. Do it.
Anyone who grew up in the 1990s and had their ears tuned to indie/college radio will know about the venerable and exciting Versus. They were one of the bedrock independent acts of that era, releasing music on record labels Teen-beat, Caroline, and Merge – and now some near-30 years later, Versus are still standing, as vital and influential as ever.
Alan Morse Davies – Hymns (Submarine Broadcasting Company)
I had the absolute pleasure of listening to Hymns by @AMDGOAT today. Really emotional listen. Beautiful and evocative & ignited a Welsh patriotism in me I didn’t know existed haha.
via Simon Tucker
Wire – I Am The Fly (Harvest / The Pink Label)
Hi 1978 Punks,

Theo Bard – Forget (ICEA)
After first introducing himself to us with his beautifully composed debut EP ‘You Give’ in 2015, Theo Bard has spent the intervening years pushing his music further into electronic realms than ever before. Inspired by a new generation of songwriters augmenting their music with electronic sounds, he has developed a unique voice as both producer and songwriter and has returned to reveal his new brand of dark, experimental pop.
Phantoms vs Fire – The Roanoke Colony Zombies (Self Released)
So this track is finished 🧟♂️
75 Dollar Bill – I Was Real (Thin Wrist Recordings)
Now spinning: the Hypno-Trance blues of 75 Dollar Bill, one of my favorite bands and one of my favorite releases so far this year.
via Brent Thomas
Janek Schaefer – Robert Hampson – Christophe Charles – Stephen Vitiello – Kurt Ralske – Floating Foundation #1 (Sub Rosa)
Janek Schaefer – based in london / architect and musician
Robert Hampson – Founder of Loop and Main – a seminal musician from south London. he produced about 12 records from early 90 and participated to the ‘Gilles Deleuze unit’ with Scanner mid-90s.
Christophe Charles – French sound plastician living in Tokyo, close in mind to Markus Popp / Oval – he released “undirected 1986-1996 ” on Mille plateaux and “dok ” – a soundfile exchange between Oval and him.
Stephen Vitiello – Born in New York City in 1964,. A musician and media-artist, he is involved in the New York avant garde,. He was also a close collaborator of Nam June Paik.
Kurt Ralske – Manhattan-based composer, electronic musician, and computer audio-video artist. Described by Alternative Press as ‘proving that machines do indeed have souls’ – founder long time ago of the mythic Ultra Vivid Scene (on 4AD)
via T2,000,000
Chelsea Reject – This Is Not My Final Form (Self Released)
one of my favourite NY rap projects in recent months
via Marvins Corridor
Clara Engel – Where a City Once Drowned: The Bethlehem Tapes Vol. II (Self Released)
The lyrics are reminiscent of Walt Whitman’s free-form verse, full of abstract observations and themes that circle and double-back throughout. The album creates the feeling of being a witness to Engel’s spiritual journey, rather than recipients of a specific message. – Exclaim!
