Love the raw ‘Kraft’ of this track on the latest St. Vincent album All Born Screaming.

This first ECM recording of Brahem is of a rare, timeless quality. His improvisations on the oud are like the middle eastern counterpart to the Bach suites. This music has so much space—light and profound at the same time, it brings immediate calm to the busy mind.

Radiohead’s Thom York and Jonny Greenwood, joined by Tom Skinner on drums. Textured, intricate, rich in facets — soft and loud at the same time. An ode to the rock trio, but never trite or exhausting. Listening to this album on blue vinyl certainly adds to the rock extravaganza.

Once again reminded what a great songwriter Garbiel Kahane is. This album is just pure bliss.

Council is Gabriel Kahane and Pekka Kuusisto's new project. This song is a beautiful, intimate gem of music, with the unexpected turns you'd expect from a Kahane song.

I've been fan of Kieran Hebden's Four Tet for a while now. While definitely on the lighter side, I like how eclectic this album is.

A hypnotic polyrhythmic drum beat that accompanies and supports the atmospheric vocals of Nona Hendryx, punctuated by bursts of trombone from Gianluca Petrella.

Louis Cole. Louis Cole? Louis Cole!

This song offers such a gentle interpretation of groove. Here, the ECM sound is like a down bed, with the outlandish, aetherial sound of Eick's trumpet flying over a winter landscape.

A great collaboration of Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood and Dudu Tassa, featuring Ahmed Doma on vocals. This song combines middle eastern melodies and electronic music (you might call it pop here) in such an effortless way. The whole album Jarak Qaribak is worth a listen.
