kotringo - Video Killed The Radio Star
Imagine if someone actually covered this song with a vaguely prog sensibility. Occasionally feels almost Canteburyesque.

Material- Seven Souls (1989)
This got remixed and redone apparently but the original release is the one I know and love.
Sly Dunbar on drums. RIP.

Enji 16/1/2026 at Pier 2 for the Sydney Festival
Intimate, captivating show with River Adomeit on upright bass and regular collaborator Paul Brändle on guitar. This lineup really suited Enji's intonation and inflections, she even roused us into a Mongolian singalong. Enjoyed it a lot.

It just goes to show how rich and deep the scene is that I've listened to about 30 of the top 64 and don't feel like in any way I have my finger on the pulse.
Also loads of albums I loved down in the triple figures.
So much great new music out there.

Hitsujibungaku - Don't Laugh It Off (2025)
Wider instrument palette (piano! cello! loops!), and big hooky choruses as you'd expect, doesn't quite have the compositional depth of "Our Hope" which for me remains their masterwork.

Albert Vila Trio - Reality Is Nuance (2023)
Doug Weiss on bass and Rudy Royston on drums are top tier players and Vila doesn't waste the opportunity. Good original tunes and some great playing. He has his own thing but is clearly influenced by the modern greats (eg Sco, Pat).

Early morning dog 🐕 walk with Gard Nilssen Acoustic Unity, and ‘Great Intentions’ (2025, Bandcamp). Lively stuff all round, and a cover of ‘Waterfalls’ playing out like a drunken waltz … brave stuff indeed! Worth a listen as is most things from Norway these days 😎
