Loma • Loma
Dark and light, sparse and lush, this is an album of dynamics and contrast, fronted by an angelic female voice.
Tricky • Fall To Pieces
Tricky’s approach to music, with subdued tempos and striking contrasts (like pitting his industrial grit voice against Marta’s honeyed vocals) has not dulled over the years, glinting in the streetlight like an out of place scalpel.
Low • Double Negative
This is the old Low turned up to 15. All hail the new Low! Note: This is very noisy and distorted. The machinery is not acting up.
Yowler • Black Dog In My Path
Despite the name, this is understated and minimalistic, with sparse instruments and a haunting voice floating on top.
