Django Django • <i>Glowing In The Dark</i>

Django Django • Glowing In The Dark

A heady brew of oscillations, arpeggios, and other pulsing throbbing sounds set against layered vocal harmonies that bring to mind multiple participants in a spacewalk aggregating to form a conga line.

Fever Ray • Plunge

Sparse and electronic, sometimes abrasive, this project from Swedish vocalist Karin Elisabeth Dreijer can be difficult and/or rewarding.

St. Vincent • Masseduction

Annie Clarke’s strong voice floats effortlessly above a dense cascade of synthetic and organic sounds

Liars • TFCF
