SLIKBACK X KMRU ~ ENEO

HAPEXZM ~ HEXES

As a reader, my eye was immediately drawn to the track “Without Books.”  Fall is the reading season, and HAPEXZM‘s narrator contributes a lament over jazzy piano and languid trip-hop beats.  Five string notes enter at the very end, all too

Rizan Said ~ Ma Waraa Al-Shaabi (ما وراء الشعبي) – Beyond Shaabi

Leng Seong ~ Gweilo
