New Music

Big new music news.

Out today: Khruangbin’s new album A LA SALA probably (I’m guessing, anyway) named after the village in the Isle of Man.

Chilled rock, lo-fi beats and psychedelia, released just in time for those long, relaxing summer evenings on the beach, and therefore with absolutely no thought for those us living in the Southern hemisphere.

Thanks, guys.

But still probably worth a listen.

And I shall.

Also, while we’re on the chilled vibe, how about some Adam Wiltzie? He was pretty much exactly half the guys behind two-guy collaboration A Winged Victory For The Sullen, and I heard one of his new solo releases Mexican Helium on the wireless just the other day. I can’t find it anywhere at the moment [UPDATE: Got it!] but I am assured that it’ll be out and about on his new album Eleven Fugues For Sodium Pentothal (after the Paul Pearl track?) today as well.

And then just three weeks until Nonetheless the nth studio album from the Pet Shop Boys comes out.

I’m filling up some playlists ahead of what promises to be an epic few days away towards the end of this month, and my cup is quite literally runnething over.

Indeed, we are #blessed.
