Frente Cumbiero: Inconcreto & Asociados
Cumbia is almost always a deeply enjoyable groove on its own, but it also has a lump-of-clay quality that allows it to take all sorts of forms. Here's an excellent example. At times, it morphs into almost Balkan brass, either an intentional style mashup or a dance-ready demo of how sounds from corners of the globe just mesh. All that and much more. Enjoy!

Soft Power: Space To Breathe
After a short been-too-busy pause, we're back! And what better way to return than with a band from northern Europe? These ain't heavypsych vines, though. This Finnish outfit finds a heady balance between the funk and progressive jazz. Occasionally edging psychedelic but always maintaining the groove, like Miles Davis leading the JB's, via Helsinki. Enjoy!

Black Market Karma: Mellowmaker
New one from Stanley Belton has a killer mishmash of psychedelia of both the old school 60's and modern day varieties. He's a one-man show here and the result varies from low-fi bedroom noodling to a denser orchestral sound. It's straight from the UK, natch, and all expertly done, a pleasure backwards and forwards. Enjoy!

Hooveriii: Manhunter
Summer's here and the time is right for rolling the windows down and cranking some rock and roll. LA's Hooveriii (pronounced "Hoover three") has got you covered with their latest. This thing is littered with nasty riffs, plenty of F-yeah! guitar, bass, keys, and drums, and just enough boundary pushing to keep it interesting. Turn it up, my friends. Enjoy!

Kate NV: Room for the Moon Live
I saw Kate NV live once, she was solo with a laptop & console, singing & dancing to samples & electronics. Twas pretty good! This - a live recording of a one-off show with a 8-person band - is something else altogether. It sparkles with spontaneity. They deconstruct + reconstruct her music, fleshing out the influences of groove, ambient, jazz. A revelation... Enjoy!

Toby Hay: New Music For The 6 String Guitar
If you believe that there can never be enough gorgeous meditative acoustic guitar music (and I'm personally of the opinion that there can never be enough gorgeous meditative acoustic guitar music), here's some gorgeous meditative acoustic guitar music for ya. The title says it all. Hay's guitar is a soothing melodic balm in these worrying times. Enjoy!

Mei Semones: Animaru
Bio says "jazz influenced indie" and given 3 words, sure, that accurately describes Semones. But that might also sell it short. If there's a sonic dimension that has an overlap of Andrew Bird + Deerhoof, you might find her there. Sweet string-laden whimsy & unexpected freak-outs both have a place, along with some lovely guitar & Japanese lyrics. This one's for smiling. Enjoy!

Florry: Sounds Like...
I first heard these guys at Woodsist fest last year, which was a perfect fit for this Philly rock band. The album is perfectly twang-heavy, a laid-back country rock for the age of legalized weed. It crackles with guitar and pedal steel, getting out "there" just often enough while not taking themselves too seriously. It rocks, it's fun, it's easy to love. Enjoy!

TWÏNS: Healing Dreams
An easy-to-love release out of Berlin. Listening to Miro Denck's newest is like listening to a playlist of my favorite sounds on shuffle. It hops all over the place - from exotica to Zappaesqueness to psychedelic jazz and more - you have to remind yourself that it's the same album/musician. The good news is, it's all quite good, making for a more-than-pleasant listen. Enjoy!

Ouzo Bazooka: Kapaim
More worldly sounds from overseas, this bazooka is a doozy. Hailing from Israel, this project from Uri Brauner Kinrot mixes Middle Eastern and Turkish funk in with psychedelic rock to create something that feels truly universal and culture-bridging. It's groovy as hell, but it's much more than that. His output has been generally impressive, but this is the best yet. Enjoy!

Golden Brown: Whisker Fatigue
Most one-man guitars-and-effects albums out there lean into quiet ambient beauty, sonic balm to the loudness of the modern world. While there's some lovely guitar on his latest, Stefan Beck sandwiches it in layers of murky digitalia, leaning into the darkness rather than ignoring it. It's a welcome dimensionality for the listener. Pretty, sure, but also not. Enjoy!

Lou Hazel: Riot of the Red
There's good music made on this side of the Atlantic, too, you know! Take this Durham-based songwriter whose latest is a delight of American folk rock. It lies somewhere at the intersection of Dr Dog and New-Morning-era-ish Dylan where the lyrics, melodies, vocals, and instrumentation are all perfectly matched comfortably cushioned in an easygoing vibe.

Holden & Zimpel: The Universe Will Take Care Of You
Two of my favorite electronic artists are James Holden who creates magical realism pieces of pure joy & Wacław Zimpel who combines clarinet + electronics in truly unique ways. So it's no surprise that this collab is pure bliss. The energy of the two is resonant in the truest sense. This is happiness for a world that needs lots of it. Enjoy!

Jeremiah Chiu & Marta Sofia Honer: Different Rooms
Pairing of Chiu (SML et al) on modular synth and Honer on viola & electronics makes for a powerful combination. It's a power in understatement and quietude. Lovely improvisations and interplay that's given room to breathe and evolve. The sonic meditations are enhanced by guest appearances from Josh Johnson and Jeff Parker. Masterful all. Enjoy!

Brìghde Chaimbeul: Sunwise
The Scottish small pipes player channels ancient musical wisdom, creating an entrancing, mystical sound. Glacial drones eventually yield some lively playing and otherworldly vocals, the sound of her native land but also something that feels not of this planet at all. The listener is left in a heady space, hypnotized and transported. Transcendent. Enjoy!

SLUGish Ensemble: Urban Crawl
SF reedsman Steven Lugerner leads an ensemble of the Bay Area's brightest jazz up-and-comers on his latest. Each track is influenced by an intersection in his home city, pandemic walking routes lending themselves to intersections of traditional group playing and more progressive compositions. He sticks to bass clarinet, giving it some extra low groove oomph. Enjoy!

The Sorcerers: Other Worlds And Habitats
I've been recommending new music from this Leeds band for 10 years now and if they keep putting out shit this good, I'm gonna keep on doing it for another 10. Once again they deliver with a set of deep afrofunk. This is the dark and the dank, baritone sax and old school keys on minor key grooves and swampy rhythms. Betcha dig it. Enjoy!

Maurizio Brunod: Trip with the Ladies - Chapter 2
I often listen to these recs on my commute home before posting and today's listen was partially amidst a rather harrowing rainstorm. Brunod's guitar was a perfect calm in the storm. Mixing classical, flamenco, and gypsy jazz, this is a thing of placid beauty. It's the perfect antidote for whatever is raising your blood pressure these days. Enjoy!

Yuuf: Alma’s Cove
Over the course of a five-track EP, the London 4-piece manages to chart a wide range of emotional energy, from pensive quiet to jubilant, desolate to downright giddy. This is high level instrumental music born from a deep catalog of influences for listening either light or heavy. Enjoy!

Editrix: The Big E
Guitarist Wendy Eisenberg has been on the one-to-watch list for a while. She can go soft, she can go hard and, like she does leading this power trio, she can go really f'in hard. Like an unholy marriage of punk + math rock, it'll hurt your neck from either the headbanging or the whiplash-inducing time changes. A thrill ride, one of the year's best. Book the masseuse and enjoy!

Sababa 5: Nadir
There's a growing handful of bands incorporating Middle Eastern elements into their sound. There are few doing it better than Sababa 5. The Tel Aviv/France create an organic funk centered on the scales and rhythms native to the region. Everything they've put out has been a heady intoxicant of psychedelic groove. Their latest may top them all with its darker explorations. Enjoy!

Gwenno: Utopia
Welsh artist Gwenno Saunders is out with her strongest release yet. The songs are an autobiographical coming-of-age telling, definitely worth reading the album notes. But mostly, the material is dense with musical ideas and that off-kilter Welsh quirk. Like an overlap of Cate Le Bon and St Vincent, equally thrilling getting lost in the details as taking it on in full. Enjoy!

Rujen: Velvet Dream
Out of Atlanta is Rujen, who updates the sounds of early-aught psych rockers, drawing from the sonic library of early-era Tame Impala and White Denim (amongst others), with a dash of 90's jamband. They invigorate the music with tightly constructed songcraft that's catchy, propulsive, and not shy about coloring outside the lines. A nice treat... Enjoy!

Hilary Hawke: Lift Up This Old World
Not obvious but NYC is a decent bluegrass town. Great example = a set of mostly original music from the banjo-playing singer-songwriter that feels both traditional & modern. Backed by stellar supporting musicians, she doesn't try to do anything special beyond play her songs, which is special in itself. A standard & a Radiohead cover round it out nicely. Enjoy!

Accordion, saxophone, cello and... kora? Yeah, on paper I'm not sure it works either. In the headphones, though? A delight! Worldmusic in the truest sense, a multicultural, many splendored listen. Helps that each musician is a master, bringing their individual alchemy to the greater sum. Five tracks, 2 of em recorded live, an infinity of textures. Enjoy!

C Joynes & Mike Gangloff: Tom Winter, Tom Spring
Sparse instrumental folk duo with an enchanting release with both studio and live tracks. The sound is primitive and otherworldly: lovely guitar, drone violin, mouth harp, and more. Much of it feels magically ancient, like it came from centuries ago. The rest feels extragalactic, as if it came from another world altogether. Enjoy!

Barry Walker Unit: At the 13th Moon Gravity Well
This sorta spin-off of Rose City Band includes a stoner's delight of players & playing. Recorded live in the Rose City, the quartet, led by pedal steel shaman Walker, channels the Dead ethos circa 1970. Americana meets psychedelic in lightly dosed improvisational exercises that certainly had the audience geeked. For serious zonesters only. Enjoy!

Leroi Conroy: A Tiger's Tale
Terry Cole has spent much of the last decade building his groove-heavy label Colemine. Performing here as Conroy, he finishes a longstanding project that fits right in. Old school soul and funk combine for an album that plays like a set of hip hop samples. Irresistibly so. It presents as an instrumental soundtrack to an imagined updated take on The Jungle Book.

Multi-instrumentalist typically found backing others (like Hiss Golden Messenger) takes the reins himself on his debut EP.

Getting this one in before the calendar turns to September, even though, despite its title, this one has some autumnal vibes. The NYC guitar/bass/drum group has a sound that's more baroque jazz than power trio.

Ill Considered: Balm
This UK collective never disappoints. Their latest is like a jazzrock fusion sound that's been slowed down about 100x. It's less dynamic than some of their other work, but revels in its staticness. It's cinematic and occasionally spooky and takes its time getting to where it's going. But it gets there. Rewards the patient listener. Enjoy!

Masterful Eurojams from El Paraiso, *the* place to go for heady music from Denmark and beyond.

In the same vein as Jake Fussell & Nora Brown, Decosimo takes old southern and Appalachian folk songs and channels their ancient spirit as much as interprets them for the modern age.

Not complaining, but a lot of psychrock these days can be kinda serious & heavy. That's part of what makes this LA band so enjoyable.

More great jazz from the UK. This is a 15-large ensemble from Leeds, but, despite the size, it's a light spiritual jazz. It *feels* spiritual.

Debut of a collaborative Italian duo Jacopo Battaglia (drums) and Adriano Viterbini (guitar). The two went into the studio, improvised, and then curated and spliced the results into these tracks.

If you are not familiar with Prekop, he was a principal in Sea & Cake and his own solo career. He brings the same sense of airy melody to his analog synth work.

New "supergroup" with a mix of old school altrockers. Not necessarily the frontmen, the lack of a dominant personality does them many favors.

There are actually 2 volumes released in short succession, no lack of great ideas here. Enjoy!

Matthew Sage's music is like a gentle breeze - less about the moving air itself then how it ripples through the grass, plays with a tree's leaves, feels on your face.

A lovely, provacative calm. Enjoy!

In case you're not familiar, Astatke is a patriarch of so-called Ethio-jazz. Here he revisits many decades worthy of material: rearranging, re-recording, updating. He's got a large ensemble in tow and they're a force, an afrogroove machine that's both powerful and elegant. The album is a nice, rhythmic reminder of his continued influence and relevance. Enjoy!
