"a summer of love nodding refrain that dropped at the end of night at a festival, with the sun peeping over the hills, should wreak emotional havoc"

"The classic sounds are all there: the evocative Tamasheq vocals delivered, like the classic US soul sounds, with an innate depth and resonance that is only born from genuine hardship"

"The new single is a two-track affair that artfully combines start-of-club/mixtape beats with after-the-club, "what day is it?" atmospherics"

"soon consumed by the droning, bowed and effected violin, which spark a more ambiguous series of field recordings that then crackle away under the more traditional sounds"

"it's another beautifully crafted, gravity-exempt slice of dreamy alternative singer-songwriter fare"

"hard swinging, Afro-guitar infused, agitated yet grooving, machine noise injected jazz punk territory"

"and it's a BANGER, think Roni Size in the studio with Ornette Coleman on an Indo-Nu-Death-Jazz mission and you're about there."

"accentuating the positives rather than dwelling on the loss, resulting in a suitably shimmering, twinkling, stately but spritely slice of ambient electronica"

"To call this loop-based music would do it an injustice, but there's looping and then there's this sort of looping. The sounds are beautifully crafted, worth repeating and melted into each other,"

"hand on metal immediately sets a tranquil, peaceful, spiritual scene - that Ballou wisely lets the listener take in before his trumpet rises over the hills to the east"

"As with most of my favourite compositions - classical or electronic - the musicians ease their way into the ambient electronic surrounds with a rare sensitivity for genre disparity"

"clanking, clunking household percussion, summer-primed guitar strumming, Brazilian vibes, celestial backing vocals,and an easy pop main vocal that belies the gently protesting lyrics"

"Cellz floating his lower gravity, sweeter tones and easy sax refrain over the top of the easy-bumping riddim."

"Timëa gets the ball rolling with a light touch, highly compelling acoustic guitar refrain, the perfect bed for her softly spun tale."

"Bacon then sets about lamenting America's chronically divided country in refreshingly philosophical, conscious, eyes-wide-open jazz rap terms"

"The lysergic love affair is showing no sign of slowing down either, with their latest single "Megafauna" charting a blurry course through the heart of kosmische and krautrock music. "

"there's a pleasing dreaminess and depth to the low-gravity folktronic meets subtly anthemic dream pop new single "August""

"the song continues its merry, yet existential reflecting way; somehow managing to delight the ethereal pop lovers, satiate the deep listeners and break down geographical and cultural barriers"

"The track then starts to glitch, breathe, twinkle and squawk into life, the disparate sounds finding unity in their singularity, joy in their diversity and offering good-natured comfort to the listener in return. "

"the perfect electroacoustic bed made, Turton duets with her alter ego; her 'bone instantly tuning into the gently cascading, universal consciousness exploring frequencies"

"Fresh and freaky toad-licked alt-pop for '26."

"I have to admit a soft spot for eight-minute-long tracks with four-minute-long, mantric, patiently building neo-folk instrumental introductions"

"The tune's certainly got the funk and with some cool Afrobeat swing too - this is smooth jazz for a Saturday nights on the dance floor"

This is fearless, borderless genre fusing music at its best, and a track I would love to hear played live.
