""I mean democracy without the color line..." I only discovered Josh White this year upon digging into 40s music more. Oh man - his guitar tone is the best and that voice is so warm. I love his diction/execution/timing. Instantly a favorite. Wish I would've found sooner. Well and then I listen to ..."  [+]  Reply

"The Go-Betweens became a four piece, adding bassist Robert Vickers to the band. With McLennan moving to guitar, the band sound much fuller than before, and Forster’s material is more conventional, forgoing jerky new wave in favour of more conventional pop, although his material is still more frac..."  [+]  Reply

"An absolutely stunning album from electroacoustic pioneer Iannis Xenakis. Incredibly immersive, and once it's got you hypnotised there's absolutely no escape from its spine-chilling sonic landscapes."  Reply

"Good ol’ Bruno Mars. The man has an amazing voice and is all over the world of pop and hip-hop music. You can always tell a song is going to be popular if it features Bruno Mars or if it is co-written by him. The popular music community just seems to love this guy and you know what? I love him to..."  [+]  Reply
