Rozi Plain, Hannah Miette – Let me know

There’s absolutely nothing online about this except a very minimal Reddit thread, so I’m not entirely sure it even exists. Although: here I am listening to it, and writing about it, so I suppose it must. Rozi Plain’s Prize is one of the best albums of the year (official ranking coming soon!), and this follows its folksy-electronica footsteps, starting small and breaking down into increasingly weird whimsy in its final third.

Beth Orton – Unwritten

I still strongly associate Beth Orton with the 90s. She’s released at least half a dozen albums since Trailer Park, but for me she will always be the soundtrack to hanging out in my friend’s kitchen, having dinner with his parents, waiting until we could go out and take drugs and listen to trance. I’ve not listened to a single album of hers since, but her latest Weather Alive was getting such amazing reviews, here we are. And it’s incredible from start to finish, culminating in the exquisitely devastating Unwritten, and arrives just in time to perfectly soundtrack the bleakness of winter ahead.
