Boulez was a great interpreter of 20th century music, but not this. Take care everyone, and stay healthy.

Drift. – Symbiosis. Broadcast/Jane Weaver fans alert! This is very much in that ‘naïve retro futurism that also sounds a bit 80s avant synth punk’ bracket, but it doesn’t sound particularly derivative. Possibly the young lady behind it hasn’t actually heard Broadcast…??? https://soundcloud.com/tapete-records/drift-album-preview/s-8P0QQ Noveller – Arrow. Another great ‘women in avant rock’ artist (and no, I don’t know if I’m being ironic or not myself anymore. Is it really a big deal that women make music like this in this day and age?). Frippy ambient guitar stuff which she self-genre-ises as ‘future guitar psychedelia’, deserves to be much better known: https://noveller.bandcamp.com/album/arrow Modern Nature – Annual. Rural krautrockers return with mini-album, still sounding good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1suxE1o6jI Woods – Strange To Explain. Seem to have stepped away from the moodier, Afro-funk influenced stuff from a couple of albums back, which is a shame. Still very tuneful, but possibly a bit too upbeat for me… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQvGoVX5p48&feature=emb_logo I Like To Sleep – Daymare No Age – Goons Be Gone

Discordia: 2003-2020 – Akatombo Compilation of material from Akatombo who first came to our attention via an album on Colin Newman's Swim label. I've been a fan of his dark, soundtracky stuff ever since. Zinc Alloy – Marc Bolan & T.Rex The much-maligned 'over-produced' LP. I'm biased so needless to say I love it. Countless Branches – Bill Fay The last two Fay albums have been extraordinarily good. But whereas some other fave artists like Cope, Wire and the Pet Shop Boys have released great additions to their catalogue so early in the year, this one – although not bad by any means - isn't quite doing it for me like the past two have. Not yet anyway. Close To The Glass – The Notwist Neon Golden was such a brilliant album, that I've tended to think that their later albums – as good as they are - haven't quite lived up to it. Re-investigating this I have had to re-evaluate this opinion. Quite glitchy at times, more energetic at others, there are some beautiful moments here. Henry May Long – Max Richter Incredibly beautiful. I need to investiagte him further. Stranded – Roxy Music Quite simply one of the greatest albums ever AFAIC. Also... Mirror Man – Captain Beefheart Drinking Gasoline – Cabaret Voltaire Um Dad – Stephen Mallinder John Balance Enters Valhalla – Julian Cope Join The Queue – Dillinger / Roots Radics / We The People Band Monkey Business 12” - Pet Shop Boys Hotspot – Pet Shop Boys Voodoo Lounge – Rolling Stones The Great American Songbook – V/A
