Actress – Hit That Spdiff ( b 8 ) (@ctress_a)

This stand-out cut from his new LP is as meditative and immersive as Darren Cunningham’s music has ever been.

Lukid – End Loop

I’m busy today, but this is lush and you should listen to it

Shabazz Palaces – Binoculars feat. Royce The Choice (@shabazzpalaces)

The lead single from Ishmael Butler's consistently weird hip-hop project's new LP Robed In Rareness is just sublime.

ML Buch – Pan over the hill (@mlbuch_)

The opening track on Suntub - the second full length album from ML Buch; a dreamy mix of shoegaze, experimental electronics and bedroom pop, and one of my favourite LP's of the year.

Hinako Omari – stalactites (@hinakoomori)

Taken from beautiful her new album, which is darker, more expansive and more overtly theatrical than her previous work, but still seems to exists in the liminal space between wakefulness and dreaming.

Lee Gamble – Juice (@GambleLee)

Continuing the trance revival theme today with this melancholy banger from Lee Gamble’s excellent new album Models.

Evian Christ – Silence (@evianchrist)

Trance's moment in the sun continues with this Warp-approved reimagining of Delirium’s proggy masterpiece of the same name. Rave like it’s 1999 all over again.

Lost Girls – Timed Intervals

Jenny Hval and Håvard Volden’s new collaborative album Selvutsletter explores different territory than their previous work, with opener Timed Intervals one of the clear standouts.

Maria BC – Lacuna (@mariab4christ)

Taken from their new LP Spike Field - a delicate, earthy and beautiful collection that seems to contain an underlying note of optimism in even the most stripped-down of its compositions.

[The Predatory Wasp @predatorywasp_]

Worth the wait! Already listened to this countless times, absolutely sublime. Album of the year for sure from

L’Rain – 5 to 8 Hours a Day (WWwaG) (@lrain0000)

Under the mononym L'Rain, Brooklyn native Taja Cheek has become a celebrated figure in New York experimental music, and her new album I Killed Your Dog looks set to further cement her reputation.

@DJSTTDJ @NTSlive Of course! All makes sense now.

Update on today's layoffs:

Raw Poetic, Damu The Fudgemunk – Ease Side (@rawpoetic)

The fantastic lead single and opening track on their new album is indicative of its loose, upbeat vibe.

Nina Kinert – Marble Armour (In The Eye of My Maker)

As with most of Kinert's work, Marble Armour is hauntingly beautiful, and a great entry point into her often electronically inflected, folk-led musical world if she’s escaped your attention until now.
