Jain: Zanaka. 16-bit CD Rip.

Christine and the Queens: Chaleur Humaine. HD 24-bit – 44.10 kHz.

Sem to be gravitating towards cracking debut albums today. Another corker.

Great album and really great song - saw them last year year at Brixton Academy - that gig had a real buzz to it, as if everyone knew there was something important happening.

Khruangbin.       Con toda el mundo

Recently stumbled upon this on the YouTube.  Three piece from Texas.

Definitely a bands band. With great vintage tones and textures in a cosmic global psychedelic swamp rock dream wave style.

Nick, that live show at Brixton must have been quite an experience - you lucky devil! Agree, its a superb breakthrough album, both in theme and sound, plus the unique live presentation adds to the refreshing approach. Just superb.

In fact I’ve played three (debut) albums this morning and its left me wanting more from each performer. A good thing.

I've just bought Jain's Zanaka (Deluxe) based on your recommendation and a quick YouTube listen, so can you please stop listening to new stuff for a bit to give my Paypal account a breather?!

Brilliant!   Although, apologies to your Paypal balance, but Superorganism is also worth a listen! Don’t worry, it'll be mainly podcast catch up time this afternoon  Although I do often finish off the day with an album or two. Hope you enjoy the Jain album, I just find it infectious. 

Agree, this thread is invaluable for finding out about new artists, or perhaps albums that have slipped under the radar. My bank account has also been reduced somewhat because of this thread - no bad thing!

Ese & The Vooduu People - The Bootleg Series Vol. 1

The young lady has remarkable presence, writes very well, has a great voice. They must make it, surely? Love the closing sequence of Lies>Grey>Silver Spoon.

Nice recording too - my first 16/48 download
