Description
The long-awaited sophomore solo concertina album “B” from Cormac Begley is our album of the week/month/year and in this latest instalment of our series on new musical discoveries, Dónal explains why. We also get to marvel at some more instrumental virtuosity from saxophonists Alabaster dePlume and Patrick Shiroishi. There’s a pair of exciting dispatches from the new frontier of sound by Irish producers Kean Kavanagh and Lullahush as well as a reminder of why the name of London-based Nigerian artist Tony Njoku is one to watch. The return of Kelly Lee Owens is celebrated and due praise given to the production mastery of boundary-pushing electronic pioneers Floating Points and Maya Jane Coles.   Support the music-makers on Bandcamp:   Invisible Temple https://perm-vac.bandcamp.com/album/self-hypnosis   Kelly Lee Owens https://kellyleeowens.bandcamp.com/album/lp-8   Tony Njoku https://tonynjoku.bandcamp.com/track/the-reset   Lullahush https://lullahush.bandcamp.com/album/a-city-made-of-water-and-small-love   Alabaster dePlume https://alabasterdeplume.bandcamp.com/album/gold-go-forward-in-the-courage-of-your-love   Patrick Shiroishi https://patrickshiroishi.bandcamp.com/album/hidemi   Cormac Begley https://cormacbegley.bandcamp.com/   Mason Lindahl https://tompkinssquare.bandcamp.com/track/sky-breaking-clouds-falling   Floating Points https://floatingpoints.bandcamp.com/album/vocoder   Nocturnal Sunshine https://www.beatport.com/track/ume/11863478   Whistling Arrow https://godunknownrecords.bandcamp.com/album/whistling-arrow   Kean Kavanagh https://keankavanagh.bandcamp.com/track/heart-attacks   ///
