Vibrations In Color (LP)
Nu Vintage
Mellow but not lo-fi, heavily jaz-inspired beats, coming out of the Bay Area. The harder you listen, the better it gets.

Odd Holiday
Maybe my favorite project of 2023, with Mattie on the mic throughout & Daylight Robbery with teh dusty, soulful, lovably weird production

Lightweight Heavy (LP)
Fat Jon
2023 repress of the classic instrumental project from 2004. Not to sound like an amateur audiophile in the Discogs comments, but a phenomenal pressing.

Uptown Rulers / Uptown Rulers (Professor Shorthair Remix)
Connie Price & The Keystones
Apani B Bly is back! Easily one of my very favorite MC's ever since the Polyrhythm Addicts EP, and she's definitely still got it. Now who's gonna finally press up her 2003 solo album on vinyl?

Good Time/Hard Time (LP)
Teleman
Even more well written lyrics set to the same perfect blend of synth and guitar pop delivered by Teleman in their first full length album since 2018. A bit more personal at moments than their previous work, but certainly no less danceable.

JJUUIICES (LP)
TTRRUUCES
Harmony rich and heavily (though not overly) produced psych-pop fills the sophomore album by TTRRUUCES. Welcome is the scattering of genre-bending tracks throughout.

The Days of Wine and Roses (Expanded Edition) (LP)
The Dream Syndicate
An expanded edition of the 1982 paisley classic. Though it is well worth a listen in its original form, the 40th anniversary edition is full of welcome additions (with 54 total tracks!) A plethora of very well recorded live songs and some fantastically loud, fuzzy backstage rehearsals (including some surprising but very well done covers) fill out the bonus content.

Lovelife (2023 Remaster) (LP)
Lush
Remaster and re-release of (I'll add a "probably" here to protect my future self) the finest Lush album. Wonderfully constructed tunes with lots of jangle in the guitar and excellent hooks, what more do you really need?

Lemon Lights (LP)
Seablite
The newest LP from the San Francisco group is filled with stellar vocal production and some classic dreamy guitar sounds. Give it a go if you need your fill of some high energy, reverb-laden shoegazey pop.

Let’s Stomp! Merseybeat and Beyond 1962-1969 (CD)
V/A
This is a new three CD compilation box set from Cherry Red sublabel, Strawberry Records. A great listen from start to end; with 93 songs stretching tactfully from the classic to the obscure (and a rather nice full-color, track by track booklet), there’s more than one sitting of great British R&B to be had here. Two standout tracks are Ian and the Zodiacs’ cover of “Beachwood 4-5789” (with some clever lyrical alterations) and the original US version of the Ray Davies penned masterpiece “All Night Stand” by the Thoughts. Several previously unreleased songs also feature, including some from Joe Meek’s so called “Tea Chest Tapes.” If you’re on the hunt for a fantastic collection of merseybeat, freakbeat, and British blues, you need look no further!
