Death Grips - Exmilitary
Not quite as abrasive and in your face. I didn't mind this but didn't really jump out to me. I very much get the appeal and it is certainly bold but perhaps this one suffered slightly from my own expectations. Was decent tho

Pusha-T - DAYTONA
A really tight record! Plenty to grasp onto, lyrically it feels clever and there's no moment that's just filler. Really nice sampling too, I didn't know what to expect coming into this but I have been rewarded with a solid succinct hip-hop album

Absolutely unbearable and unlistenable. I don't mind glitchy electronic music but this literally was just a whole bunch of unpleasant noises. The less said the better.

Jorge Ben Jor - Jorge Ben
A very wonderful time. Another beautiful Brazilian record that's just pure joy to listen to. The guitar work is excellent, he has a fantastic voice and while I cannot understand the words it feels like a pure album

Milo - so the flies don't come
Some gripping and almost addicting lyricism here. It's laid back, it's whimsical, it's really well made and he's very talented. Felt like it was a good length album where it doesn't wear itself out

Candido - Dancin' & Prancin'
I think just looking at this album cover and the album name you're in for a good time. It's just a whole lot of fun. Very much music to dance to and absolutely masterful use of bongos

This album is fantastic, I don't know what I can say about this that probably hasn't already been said. Her voice is just phenomenal and the songs feel very powerful. Geee writing about music is hard

Flying Lotus - Cosogramma
I enjoyed this! Some cool Hip hop and jazz instrumentation. Went into this a bit apprehensive having not having clicked with another album but maybe this is the one this is the one that finally gets me into Flying Lotus. Really cool chill album.

The Caretaker - An Empty Bliss Beyond This World
Unfortunately this one was a big shrug of the shoulders for me. Some very cute old samples, but I'm not really sure if I'm just being played old records or whether the mufflyness and crackliness is being amplified or not

Bryars: The Sinking of the Titanic
A real contrast over the last couple of days! I'm a sucker for violins so I did enjoy this generally, did feel quite repetitive but I did like the concept behind it. Certainly a lot of talent but not inspiring me that much

Betty Davis - They Say I'm Different
My word what a horny couple of days for mwe. This was pretty good though, very funky and loose and felt a bit like a jam session which I enjoyed. She's got a great voice and like how she pronounced "skunk"

Aphrodite's Child - 666
I wasn't expecting some mad Prog Rock! This was largely an enjoyable listen, not groundbreaking for this genre and shouldn't have been totally surprised by one song being sex noises for like 5 minutes

3776 - Saijiki
Unfortunately very monotonous. I understand the intention of the album and perhaps over an EP length or even a shorter album I'd appreciate this more. But at over an hour long this became quite a frustrating listen as it could be great but it's really banking on one idea

There's nothing really bad to say about this album. It's very pretty, calming and cosy. Has a lazy Sunday or intimate cinematic feel to it. All very pleasant but does fade into the background and you kinda forget it's even playing

Clube de Esquina
Absolutely beautiful, while I do not understand the words you can appreciate the singer's voice. It's quite amazing the contrast of Brazil's political climate at the time to the calmness of this album and the over arching feeling of hope. A wonderful discovery

Neil Ardley - Symphony of Amaranths
Some pleasant jazz and some weird poems(?) all in all it was an interesting record but peaked very early on when it was at its jazziest. I cannot forgive Neil Ardley though for duping me into listening to the English national anthem

Machine Girl - wlfgrl
Starts off incredibly abrasive but eventually gets to some tracks where I can latch onto something. It sounds like it could be the soundtrack to bomberman. There were elements I enjoyed throughout but in the context of an album it's not for me, too stressful...

Prince - Sign O The Times
I cannot comprehend how he comes up with his ideas and his voice is just incredible. What I enjoy about this is that musically it's fantastic but is also very fun and no way pretentious imo. Didn't feel too long and made the commute home go by very quickly

Absolutely iconic. Even though I am familiar with his work I had never listened to this and it feels like listening to so many artists I love for the first time again. It's confident, fresh, excellent. Love hearing the touches of garage and french house

A collection of sweet soothing ambient sounds. I really like the various sounds of nature intertwined with the synths and pianos. Quite a therapeutic listen

Autolux - Future Perfect
Very conflicted on this one. On paper it's right up my street. The production is excellent there's not a moment the album is just cruising however despite the grunge and shoegaze it didn't elicit much emotion in me just an appreciation of good technical ability

I enjoyed the general lo-fi distorted doomy heavy sound of this album. While it is cool I had this album figured out early on. It isn't bad at all, in fact I do think all the songs are very good. But at 75 minutes it does turn into a bit of a chore

Very glitchy but pretty cool, spooky, atmospheric production. This has a very intense feel and is certainly not one to listen to while driving again. I feel like the fact it was a short album really helped it as at no point did anything outstay it's welcome

Prefab Sprout - Swoon
Wonderfully unorthodox 80s indie-pop. Very intricately put together and yet at the same time it feels broad. There's a lot to latch onto here whether it's McAloon's full lyrics, the swoony instrumental, playing maybe every chord or the band name
