Drones [Red Vinyl] (LP)
Terrace Martin
Los Angeles multi-instrumentalist Terrace Martin draws on R&B, funk, jazz and hip-hop for his new album, Drones . It has no shortage of A-list collaborators on board including Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar, Leon Bridges, Kamasi Washington, and Robert Glasper. The sultry title track addresses casual hookups while “Leimert Park” is a jazzy, spoken-word number that evokes the resiliency of the hood. The smooth, bouncy “Leave Us Be” is an easy album highlight, along with “Sick of Cryin’” with its horns and lightly tropical beat.
Between Us... (CD)
Metropole Orkest
Between Us… is Anoushka Shankar's first live album since 2001, recorded while she was on tour in the Netherlands with Holland's Metropole Orkest and conductor Jules Buckley. Joined by her regular collaborator Manu Delago, she performed music from four solo albums plus one previously unreleased track, "Jannah." "Land of God" is sweepingly romantic and stirring, while "Traveller" is lively, and "Maya" is enigmatic and pensive. The enthusiastic applause on these tracks is proof of how rapt and appreciative the audiences were at these special concerts.
Cool It Down (CD)
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Has it really been almost a decade since the last Yeah Yeah Yeahs album? You’d never know it from their effortlessly cool latest, Cool It Down . The album opens with “Spitting Off the Edge of the World,” a majestic, moving ballad where Karen O’s vocals intertwine with those of guest vocalist Perfume Genius to create a truly epic track that sounds like the theme to a classic ‘80s fantasy. Mid-way through the album “Burning” lives up to its name, with searing guitars, yearning piano, and a chorus that should serve as the anthem for your most regrettable/enjoyable toxic love affair. There’s bound to be a lot of hype about this album and fans should be happy to know Cool It Down lives up to the buzz.
Every Acre (CD)
H.C. McEntire
HC McEntire's Every Acre is the type of album that feels imbued with a sense of place, calling to mind the dusty roads and distant horizon of the best country and Americana. Her distinctive voice feels both tender and haunting; her lyrics capture emotions in a way few artists can. You'll want to keep this one on repeat, as these richly-textured songs have more to reveal with each listen. Lilting and lovely, Every Acre is McEntire at her very best.

Black Radio III (CD)
Robert Glasper
Robert Glasper delivers another career-high album with Black Radio III . The talented pianist conjures up multi-faceted moods, with a sense of yearning and hope emerging from his assured, elegant keys. Glasper's brought some heavy hitters to the proceedings, too, with Killer Mike, Big K.R.I.T., and BJ the Chicago Kid appearing on the brilliant "Black Superhero." H.E.R. and Meshell Ndegeocello appear on the addictive, achingly beautiful "Better Than I Imagined." Elsewhere on the album, Q-Tip, Common, Ty Dolla Sign, Esperanza Spalding, Jennifer Hudson, Yebba, and Ant Clemons make excellent contributions. Black Radio III is straight up fantastic and will probably land on many year end "best of" lists.
Louie (CD)
Kenny Beats
Kenny Beats’ visionary debut Louie is one of the most exciting, creatively inspired hip-hop albums in recent memory. Having worked with everyone from Denzel Curry to Dominic Fike to Doja Cat, it’s no surprise that he’s capable of crafting an eclectic collection of tracks that both seamlessly flow and are a vibe unto themselves. The production is lush and atmospheric, the melodies influenced by retro soul, funk, and jazz. This joyous, groove-filled record feels like a summer day, whether you’re spinning it in the middle of winter or with the windows rolled all the way down.
Between Us... (CD)
Anoushka Shankar
Between Us… is Anoushka Shankar's first live album since 2001, recorded while she was on tour in the Netherlands with Holland's Metropole Orkest and conductor Jules Buckley. Joined by her regular collaborator Manu Delago, she performed music from four solo albums plus one previously unreleased track, "Jannah." "Land of God" is sweepingly romantic and stirring, while "Traveller" is lively, and "Maya" is enigmatic and pensive. The enthusiastic applause on these tracks is proof of how rapt and appreciative the audiences were at these special concerts.

So Happy It Hurts [Deluxe Edition] (CD)
Bryan Adams
Bryan Adams’ new album finds him celebrating freedom (the title track) and long-time romance (the gentle “Always Have, Always Will” and the old-school rocker “I Ain’t Worth Shit Without You”). Elsewhere inspiration came from other projects: The jangly, upbeat “I’ve Been Looking For You” was written for “ Pretty Woman: The Musical and one of the album’s most stirring tracks, “These Are The Moments That Make Up My Life,” was originally for the film Marley & Me . The deluxe 2CD includes a second disc of the beloved singer/songwriter’s hits.
Crawler (CD)
IDLES
IDLES are back with a visceral new album, Crawler . This relentless album takes all the down-and-dirty elements of IDLES that brought the British post-punk act acclaim and refines their raucous approach into knife-sharp lyrics and gritty noise. The melodies on their fourth album are as intense and abrasive as ever, yet they’re tempered by introspection and the urge to evolve. Urgent and inventive, Crawler shows the band reassessing and reworking what makes them tick.
Calling You From My Mountain (CD)
Peter Rowan
On his new album, Grammy-winner Peter Rowan delivers a flawless set of original and traditional bluegrass tracks. The album kicks off with a sprightly version of Woody Guthrie’s “New York Town” with a clear sound quality that belies the old timey charm of this music. Elsewhere highlights include the spiritual original “Light at the End of the World” and the swooning “From My Mountain (Calling You),” which features Molly Tuttle on guest vocals and banjo.
The Waeve (CD)
The Waeve
With the release of The Waeve's eponymous self-titled debut, Blur guitarist Graham Coxon and erstwhile Pipettes vocalist Rose Elinor Dougall have created one of the freshest, most interesting albums in a long time. The pair combines elements of shoegaze, psychedelia, post-punk and dark folk to create a lush, unpredictable, emotionally gripping set of songs. Both Coxon and Dougall contribute vocals, lending a unique timbre to each track. Coxon performs on saxophone as well as on the lute. It's an early contender, but this might be one of the year's best. Don't sleep on it!
