Sisso New Album – Singeli Ya Maajabu
Nestled within the rich cultural fabric of Tanzania's musical landscape, Sisso emerges as a beacon of innovation at its eponymous studio in the bustling city of Dar es Salaam. Here, amidst the rhythmic heartbeat of the nation, the revolutionary singeli genre finds its epicenter, pulsating with an energy that defies convention. Singeli, though not clandestine within its homeland, boasts tempos that soar beyond the 200 BPM mark, offering a vast playground for sonic experimentation and exploration. Propelled by the relentless dedication of Uganda's Nyege Nyege label, a venture initiated by two European expatriates driven by a profound passion for East Africa's electronic underground, singeli's more avant-garde iterations have surged onto the global stage, overshadowing the relatively mainstream-friendly offerings of artists like Msaga Sumu.

Beth Gibbons New Musical – Lives Outgrown
Beth Gibbons has perfected the art of embracing stillness as a profound expression. Remember her gripping performances with Portishead? She clung to the microphone, her voice dripping with a profound sense of melancholy. Since those days, her musical offerings have arrived at a pace that could challenge the slow crawl of a snail. But with each passing year of quiet, her reputation has only swelled. Following the release of Portishead’s Third in 2008, Gibbons embarked on a journey marked by rare public appearances. She lent her voice to Górecki’s Symphony No. 3 with the Polish National Radio Symphony, made a notable feature on Kendrick Lamar’s “Mother I Sober,” and otherwise, she remained elusive. Gibbons does only what she deems necessary, and she does it on her own timeline. Thus, the unveiling of Lives Outgrown feels like a momentous event.

Wolfacejoeyy New Album – Valentino
In the vibrant mosaic of New York City's music scene, a singular chapter unfurled for the son of Staten Island, wolfacejoeyy. Amidst the throbbing heartbeat of the city's drill movement, his journey took a serendipitous turn with the arrival of Cash Cobain and Chow Lee's seminal mixtape, "2 Slizzy 2 Sexy," in 2022. It was a moment that cast a luminous glow on joeyy's artistic path, propelling him into the immersive currents of the melodic trap landscape. Among the luminaries of the underground scene, such as SoFaygo, Slump6s, and Yung Fazo, he found himself navigating the evolving sonic tides, each wave sculpting his artistic vision.

Keeley Forsyth New Album – The Hollow
When Keeley Forsyth sings, it's as if you're not just hearing her voice, but feeling the very essence of her being emanating through it. It's not about superficial qualities like appearance or demographics, but about the raw physicality—the bones, the sinews, the sheer visceral presence. Her voice seems to emerge from deep within, her chest expanding with each note, muscles tensing, creating a sound that feels as though it's rooted in the very flesh that births it. While some singers strive for an effortless performance, Forsyth embraces the physical strain, infusing her music with a tangible sense of exertion.
