co-sign "Sibling". I later discovered a lot of his album is in the same vein, but this is still a particularly beautiful example

New Ariel Pink & Weyes Blood collab song "Tears on fire"

"Tears On Fire" is dreamy

Hahaha I think Tears on Fire is amazing but I wont fight anyone who thinks otherwise. I've been annoying all my friends with it for the past few weeks.

Tears On Fire sounds like a merger of Wicker-Man style folk with Air. It works, I think.
Currently into Julie Byrne's new one, Robyn, Kid Koala and Rose Elinor Dougall (ex Pipettes)

I just noticed yesterday that the album came out. Started listening to it and got distracted. Need to get back to it.

Oh, I forgot to mention Syd's album Fin which is about 75% amazing.

Bryan Ferry should work with this guy, it's crazy how the guitars sound imported from Avalon or late solo Ferry.
Also "Voices" with its "In Your Eyes" re-appropriation is gorgeous

I don't think there's an appropriate rolling genre thread to put this in so here we go:

Over one and a half hours of anxious avant-noise-rock. The first music in a long time that me think HOLY FUCK more than once. It rules.

Still digesting the overt trop house vibes of the Wednesday Campanella album but I think it's good?
The Hardy Tree LP is wonderful. Best thing yet on Clay Pipe.

"In a part of Dublin known as the Liberties, which is also where the Vikings settled 1000 years ago, there is a small community of rebel horse owners. And a few years ago, a travelling street musician who goes by the name, "The Musical Slave", accidentally crashed her van into the wall of one of their urban horse yards – and out came a horse and a few boys. One of them brought her for a spin with a horse and two-wheeler, and from that day on she was hooked. She ended up buying her own horse and moving him into the yard...
The Musical Slave is a street musician and storyteller from Bergen, on the west coast of Norway. She plays tropical punk, and sings about love, the forces of nature, and the world economy."

I'm really into the new Entrance album 'Book of Changes' which you can hear on bandcamp. Classic-sounding folk/pop kind of stuff. A couple of highlights: Molly, I'd Be a Fool

I cannot stop listening to the new Tinariwen. Desert Blues is all I need right now.

I love "Friend Zone" and "Them Changes" from the new Thudercat album although a lot of the rest is kinda clickbait Shuggie Otis, but I need a few more listens. I love the line "I'd rather play Mortal Combat anyway" on "Friend Zone"
