Music
Lars Petter Hagen: “Transfiguration 4”
It’ll transfigure you until you can’t be transfigured no more!
Slow Walkers: “The Flood”
This is the sort of album on Twin Peaks’ Bob’s turntable. Wow, Bob, wow!
Nana Benz du Togo: “AGO”
A slightly improbable mix of acid house and the bright sounds of afro-pop.
Jake Rosenkalt: “Joshua”
Jake Rosenkalt rounds up the crew for a Sunday morning excursion to Jazz Brunch Paradise.
Rachel Baiman: “Bad Debt”
The Nashville-based, Chicago-transplant brings a twist to familiar country flavors.
Stuck: “Time Out”
Ejaculatory DEVO phrasemaking that shoots guitar lick bottlerockets into the sky.
McKinley Dixon: “Run, Run, Run”
Virginia’s McKinley Dixon claims the jazz mantle. It’s in the title of the album!
Wave Temples: “Emerald Nights”
An egg basket of easy listening, found sound ambient rippers.
Louise Campbell: “Songbird”
This is György Ligeti reconstructed using birdcall Lego blocks. Don’t knock it til you’ve tried it.
Damien Jurado: “Nieman Marcus”
Neiman Marcus, not to be confused with the lawyer and city planner Norman Marcus.
Graveyard of the Atlantic: “The Wolf”
“The Wolf” is obviously a reference to the Harvey Keitel character in Pulp Fiction.
