Gabríel Ólafs ~ Solon Islandus
What’s the next step for an artist after becoming a teenaged global phenomenon? For Gabríel Ólafs, the answer is to become a grown-up global phenomenon. This was also the path taken by Ólafur Arnalds, and we suspect his younger Icelandic

Susana López ~ The Edge of the Circle / Manja Ristić ~ Him, fast sleeping, soon he found In labyrinth of many a round, self-rolled
How might we visualise a drone? Perhaps a long unbroken line. Better yet, a continuous circle of sound. Or a series of circles rippling over water. New albums from Susana López and Manja Ristić both use circular motifs to envision

Black Oak Ensemble ~ Avant l’orage: French String Trios, 1926-1939
We don’t tend to focus much on historical music here on ACL, but this album is a timely treat.

It’s a welcome opportunity to travel back to a distant yet curiously close time.
