Congratulations, Sebastian Plano and Hildur Guðnadóttir (but we’re not so sure about the other nominees).
We have a love/hate relationship with the Grammy Awards, which occasionally gets something (almost) right. Congratulations to Sebastian Plano, whose album Verve received a nomination for Album of the Year … in the New Age category. We’d prefer to see it under Contemporary

*Press A* ~ Noita
“Every pixel is simulated”, reads Noita’s press release, which in game terms means that everything shifts, moves, and changes with each interaction. Every run is variable, and the player is an agent of continual transformation. This emergent aspect means that

WaqWaq Kingdom ~ Essaka Hoisa
Never judge a book by its cover. But the hyperactive artwork of this album does tell us much about the music. Both are a kaleidoscopic frenzy, where shards of Japanese tradition embed themselves in a body of global influences. We might

Anne Müller ~ Heliopause

PYUR ~ Oratorio for the Underworld
With Oratorio for the Underworld, Sophie Schell (PYUR) surpasses the high expectations created by 2016’s Epoch Sinus. Even more, she surpasses all expectations for an album, period. Listening again to her debut LP, one can hear the roots of what would eventually become trees,
