Jorja Chalmers – Midnight Train. Bryan Ferry’s sax lady returns with second album of noir electronica. I loved her first one, and this also sounds pretty great, albeit more vocal-oriented this time. Great song and video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7S3sZoiG20g

Clive Mitten – Suite Cryptique: Recomposing Twelfth Night 1978 – 1983. I have a big affection for neo-proggers TN, a band who were head and shoulders above the likes of Marillion etc, but never quite ‘made it’ for a variety of reasons. This on the face of it could have been dreadful – CM, their main songwriter, reinterprets their back catalogue for (pseudo) orchestra – but while it is undeniably a bit cheesy in places, it’s actually rather good. Well, I enjoyed it anyway: https://clivemitten.bandcamp.com/album/suite-cryptique-recomposing-twelfth-night-1978-1983

Concretism – Tellifusion

D Rothon – Memories Of Earth

Jason Sharp – The Turning Center Of A Still World

Throwing Snow – Dragons

Osees – Metamorphosed

Daniel O’Sullivan & Richard Youngs – Twelve Of Hearts. This came out to little fanfare last year, but it’s one of those albums I can imagine some people – primarily early Eno and Wyatt fans – seriously loving. O’Sullivan and Youngs are always never less than interesting, but they’ve combined to tremendous effect here, kind of futuristic doo wop meets techno plainsong – much better than O’Sullivan’s more feted Grumbling Fur, and Youngs has never been in finer voice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjLy4HDy9UU

Robert Calvert & The Maximum Effect – Live At The Stars & Stripes

Wipers – Over The Edge

Heldon – Agneta Nilsson
