so, I don't know why it took me so long to get started on this but I think it's about time for the 2026 edition of the thread where I share music I've been enjoying lately

I have been saving stuff I've been enjoying lately in a notepad file so I have a lot ready to go, but I won't add it all at once since that would be quite a flood

will try and tag people when it's an artist who's acct I know the @ of

anyway to begin with here's the latest from an artist I've known for a while, loved their music a lot for a while and who only seems to go from strength to strength with each new release

kind of contemplative but playful downtempo

this is a lot more dancefloor focused than the original album (which I'm 99% sure I shared in last year's thread) and a great companion to it
