“Beyond the Pale” out now on cd/vinyl/transparent orange vinyl
After a legendary career as the enigmatic frontman for Pulp, and a successful run of solo albums and collaborations, Jarvis Cocker debuts his first new full length album since 2009 with musical project JARV IS…
“… Cocker is actually on prime, Pulp-level form on Beyond the Pale. Anyone pining for the arch twig-insect dandy of old, preening over driving beats and gyrating to wayward early electronics, will find much to love on this album.” Read full review by Kitty Empire on theguardian.com
Arca is one of the world’s most transformative musical talents. Since breaking through with her 2012 EPs Stretch 1 and Stretch 2, she’s created an unprecedented body of work drawing from club music, experimental noise, and the ballad tradition of her native Venezuela, while reaching beyond music to encompass performance, visual art, and technology. As a collaborator with Björk, Kanye West, and FKA twigs, she’s stretched contemporary music’s sonic boundaries and helped set the sound of her era. As a Latinx nonbinary trans woman, she’s redefined the role of the diva for a new generation. Her latest work is KiCk i, the first in a series of upcoming works, each with its own sonic theme. For the first installment, KiCk i, Arca pursues pleasure, dignity, and dance floor liberation by refracting club music, reggaetón, and pop through her radical vision.
—————————————————————————————————-
“In Arca’s world, playfulness has long intertwined with terror, rigidity with fluidity, human existence with cyborg life, abrasiveness with gentleness. These contrasts have defined Alejandra Ghersi’s earliest co-productions for Kanye West and FKA twigs”,… read full review by Max Freedman on pastemagazine.com
‘What We Drew’ is titled intentionally; the project is as much indebted to her own singular creative vision as it is to her network of close-knit collaborators and friends, a team she’s described as a “family business.” She’s inspired by both Korean indie rock and electronica that she listened to as a teenager in Seoul as well as late ’90s and early 2000s hip hop and R&B and in her first full-length release. While entirely self-produced, she’s careful to classify it as a mixtape, which belies the way that these songs came together: “Each track is almost like a snippet of my life, a look into my diary or something, where it’s reflective of how I was specifically feeling during that time.”
“Yaeji’s first full-length mixtape is a subtle, more insular turn for the producer. It plays like a self-issued challenge to strip away the fluorescence, to find what’s underneath pop catharsis.” Read full review by Stacey Anderson on Pitchfork

There was so much good new music this year, this was a hard list to make. Longtime favorites of mine like Beck, Deerhunter, Chaka Kahn, Neil Young and Panda Bear all released albums this year and even they didn’t make my list. So let’s dig into my top 10 albums of 2019! – Matt Carroll
10. Gus Dapperton Where Polly People Go To Read – Super-catchy pop music. Definitely pretending to be vaporwave, but give the kid a break.
9. Hanna Diamond Reflections
– PC Music’s crown jewel finally releases her debut a few years too late maybe, but it’s still a great album. Hannah’s music is vapid in the best way possible.
8. Girlpool What Chaos Is Imaginary
– Just a good, quiet album. Post-ASMR?
7. Cass McCombs Tip Of The Sphere
– Cass is a peerless songwriter. He’s been quietly releasing amazing albums for several years now and he’s never really got the recognition that he deserves. This album is a good introduction if you’re new to his world.
6. Kim Gordon No Home Record – Headline: Kim Gordon (of Sonic Youth) made a record with trap beats on it. Sold!
5. Solange When I Get Home
– Everyone slept on this album, give it a spin you rubes!
4. (Sandy) Alex G House Of Sugar
– A really solid indie rock album with unexpected IDM flourishes (!) and a few other surprises.
3. Chris Cohen Chris Cohen
– This is the best Yo La Tengo album in years.
2. Boogie Everythings For Sale
– No, not A Boogie wit da Hoodie. Just Boogie, and yes he’s on Eminem’s label (cringe). This is still my favorite hip hop album of the year.
1. Brittany Howard Jaime
– This is the album I was always hoping she would make. She really expanded on her usual palette of sounds with Alabama Shakes. A fantastic solo debut.
I would also like to shout-out my favorite vinyl reissues of 2019:
Patrice Rushen Remind Me (The Classic Elektra Recordings 1978-1984)
