Interpol

Interpol's 2002 debut album is an all timer for me, one of my favorite records ever, but they've never quite grabbed my attention with any subsequent release.  And i'm not saying that "This Mirror Weighs a Ton," the band's new LP, is anywhere near and dear to my heart as "Turn on the Bright Lights," it does at least have me paying attention again.  There's plenty of the band's early '00s post punk sound on the album, but they also branch out a little bit with moments of dreamy, albeit downcast, indie pop, like on "Iron City."  I'm going to have to give this one a few more listens.  As John Wick says, "Yeah, i'm thinking i'm back."  Listen below and get the LP here from Partisan Records.

Pentagrams of Discordia

With a name like Pentagrams of Discordia, i kind of expected dark and ominous tones, portent harbingers of doom and whatnot, but the French Guiana artist actually makes chilled out IDM with flashes of the cinematic and ambient waves.  Great stuff for centering yourself.  New album "Whispers About Radiance" is out now.  Grab it here from the artist and listen to the sprawling "Slowing of Evolution" below.

Daily Jam - Spanish Air

Here's a wonderful melancholy and dreamy track from Slowdive's first LP.  Listen to "Spanish Air" below, our Daily Jam.

Stellardrone

Making breakfast for dinner tonight (my kids love it), so gotta go and get the bacon started.  Thinking i'm gonna space out a little whilst cooking with some cinematic ambient and electronic music from Lithuanian artist Stellardrone.  Listen to "Transcendence" below and download the new "Kosmos" album here.

Daily Jam - Golden Hair

Here's some calming music for us (but especially me because i'm very, very tired) on this Sunday evening.  Listen to Syd Barrett and "Golden Hair" below, our Daily Jam.

Prepare My Glider

Here's some positively dreamy new music from shoegaze band Prepare My Glider.  Their new "Change" EP came out last week for our listening pleasure.  Download it here and listen to the excellent title track below.

Daily Jam - That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore

Remember kids, you don't have to feel too bad about liking or listening to The Smiths, because even though Morrissey is a total twat, Johnny Marr is cool as hell.  Listen to "That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore" below, our Daily Jam.

Erykah Badu & The Alchemist

Oh man, i had no idea this was a thing.  Dallas R&B artist and all around hip chick Erykah Badu is dropping a new album with hip-hop producer extraordinaire The Alchemist.  Hell yeah.  And it features guest appearances from Earl Sweatshirt, Westside Gunn, Kamasi Washington, and more.  Check out the groovy "Witch Doctor" below and grab the "Before the World Blows" LP here from Young.

It was such a long work day today.  But it's over now.  Time to dim the lights, light some candles, maybe burn some incense or get out the sensual oils or something, and listen to a little Enigma.  Here's the "Sadeness Pt. 1" radio edit in all its steamy glory.  Listen below, our Daily Jam.
