Review: The Window Is The Dream finds Jana Horn go ever deeper into her own personal inner space than ever before. It is a work that builds on her well-received debut Optimism and makes her well worth of the one-to-watch tag she received when it dropped. This one saw Horn go to upstate New York to record with "electro-primitivism of the Silver Apples, austere rhythm kings This Heat and The Raincoats' time-bending Odyshape" in mind and distill them into her own forms. Her transfixing voice is at the centre of each tune with skeletal rhythms and melodies making for a bewildering listen.
Review: Mr Bongo serves up the new collaboration here from Mandaworld (bereft known as Amanda Hicks) and partner Matthew Tavares, who is Matty of the much loved jazz outfit BADBADNOTGOOD. The pair have a magical musical synergy that really shines through here as they interweave and uplift one another. 'Warm You' is a real classic that fits in the canon of timeless ballads. It is a dreamy pop song doused in oodles of reverberating guitars and mellow shoegaze vibes that evokes a world of nostalgic feelings. 'Spoonfeed' is just as warm and lush but a little more subdued.

Review: Where do you start with someone like Dolly Parton. Singer, songwriter, actress, philanthropist, entrepreneur, she's been there, done that, got a stack of t-shirts and survived to tell the tale. Fiercely determined and staunchly independent, the fact she's one of the best-selling female artists of all time, with more than 100million units shifted, speaks volumes about her ability to capture a lived experience on record. The fact she managed to navigate a notoriously ruthless industry during its most notorious decades proves her grit.
The Monument Singles Collection presents a convincing case for all this. Comprising early work for the eponymous Monument label, this was Parton emerging from a successful but largely unsung period as songwriter for others, and becoming a veritable star in the making. Songs about overcoming adversities from poverty to patriarchy, which would go on to become anthems in their own right.
Review: Introducing the second volume of Super Biton De Segou's Afro.Jazz.Folk collection, led by Malian conductor Amadou Bah, also known as 'The Armstrong Malian'. Mieruba is thrilled to present this collaboration with Deviation Records, showcasing the diverse musical roots of 1970s Mali; combining Afro-Latin percussion, Mandingo songs, jazzy brass, and funky guitar. Segou is a crossroads between the Bambara, Peul, Mandingo and Somono cultures, and Super Biton has drawn on all these traditions to create yet another rich repertoire of rhythma-lyrical wonderment.
Review: The deep archives of disco legend and synth wizard Patrick Cowley continue to prove inspirational for Dark Entries. Cowley, who passed away from AIDS-related illness in 1982, was the multi-faceted producer behind numerous disco anthems such as Sylvester's "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)". Since 2009, Dark Entries has been working with Cowley's friends and family to shed light on the lesser known facets of this singular artist's output. This has resulted in a string of celebrated archival albums, including Catholic (featuring Jorge Socarras), School Daze, Muscle Up, Afternooners, Mechanical Fantasy Box, and Some Funkettes.For the latest addition to this saga, White Trash Boom-Boom, Dark Entries has teamed up with The Stud to release four tracks culled from some of Cowley's earliest rehearsal tapes. In 1972 Patrick was living in the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood with Theresa McGinley and Janice Sukaitis, friends of his from New York. In 1973, Theresa and Janice formed White Trash Boom-Boom, an all-female avant-garde performance troupe. Reacting to the Angels of Light and the Cockettes, they captured the spirit of the times: camp, confrontational, and delirious.
