Rachel Grimes ~ The Way Forth
Every once in a while, an artist puts so much love and effort into a project that it glows. The Way Forth is one of these projects. A patchwork quilt of music, letters, song and film, Rachel Grimes‘ multi-media release tackles multiple

OHIO ~ Upward, Broken, Always
OHIO the duo is a tribute to Ohio the state. After Taylor Deupree and Corey Fuller discovered that they shared a state of birth, they sealed their geographical bond by recording a thoughtful cover of Damien Jurado’s “Ohio.” The otherwise (mostly) instrumental

Ricardo Donoso ~ Re_Calibrate
Re_Calibrate is the counterpart to 2018’s Calibrate, an industrial album that has aged particularly well. The rounded geometrical shapes on the cover have been replaced by angles, but the sense of drama remains intact; if anything, it’s been amplified. This is the

Bennemann, Blasco, Caeldries, Effenberg, Harding, Hoebreckx, Ivanova, Le Du & Watson ~ The Memory Room
The album begins with a tweet ~ what we might call a “classic” or “original” tweet, before the name was co-opted by humans. This contrast is a metaphor for our relationship with the environment, underlining the danger of giving our

Per Störby Jutbring ~ The Thief Bunny Society
The Thief Bunny Society is a very solid album, although not as quirky as its cover and lead video suggest. In the artist’s video we see the handwriting of a child, followed by the first of many bunnies ~ then a

Matana Roberts ~ COIN COIN Chapter Four: Memphis
COIN COIN Chapter Four: Memphis is essential listening. It screams the past to the present, echoing Spike Lee’s cry at the end of Do the Right Thing: “Wake up!” We still haven’t woken up. We still haven’t faced the sins of our ancestors,

Dino Spiluttini ~ Heaven
Heaven may be called “contemporary church music,” but only the most contemporary of churches might consider hosting such music ~ and that’s a shame. In recent years, congregations with limited budgets have begun sharing spaces with the arts, to sublime effect.

Christopher Tignor ~ A Light Below
Wow. We’ve been enjoying the music of Christopher Tignor for 15 years, beginning with that first Slow Six album, on through Wires of Tension and finally to his solo work. We’re not surprised that A Light Below is great; we’re surprised that it’s his best
