My favorite record for this week is clearly Anthony Gonzales,’ or M83 as he’s better know, fifth LP “Saturdays = Youth.” I’ve always been fascinated by the way he masterfully mixes electronic and shoegazing elements, that gave as result some wonderful eclectic ambient music. Then there’s of course one of our recent favorites Tristan Prettyman, and her latest sophomore release “Hello…x.” Also another album worth picking up this week, is the latest LP from the Californian neo-psychedelics The Brian Jonestown Massacre, titled “My Bloody Underground.”
Other worthy mentions include new material from Mariah Carey, Kooks, Jason Mraz, Freddie Stevenson, Joseph Arthur or Everclear.
