Binga,Sam / Addison Groove - Bags Inc - VINYL LP

London experimental spoken word and electronics duo Bag marry visceral poetry with exploratory production on their mesmerizing new , This House is a Body, to achieve beguiling, occasionally screwy and occasionally dreamy sonics.InchThis album functions as a floor plan, a house in itself, collecting and containing the ecosystems of multiple rooms,Inch write Bag - Canadian artist and poet Jody DeSchutter and London producer Daniel Allison. InchThe roles we play can be defined by the room we are in; and it can be near impossible to tell what room we are in without looking from outside. This album maps out a number of rooms which hold such relations, memories, or experiences and builds them all into a single house, a single body.InchFormed from Allison's headspinning, depth-mining production for synthesis, field recording, and acoustic instrumentation, and DeSchutter's lysergic and prophetic spoken word, the palette of This House is a Body can turn on a dime from claustrophobia and dread to hyperreal dream sequence, illuminated in sunstreamed glory in places and dripping with basement effluvia in others. Throughout, words, meaning, and imagery all dissolve into an architecture of alternately familiar and unknowable sound.

Vinyl LP pressing. Multi-platinum, BRIT Award-winning, and GRAMMY-nominated global pop visionary Mika ushers in a bold new era with Hyperlove - his vibrant and emotionally charged seventh studio album that embodies Mika's signature fusion of theatricality, honesty, and irresistible melody. The album captures the sound of an artist forever redefining and transcending pop on his own radiant terms. It is as bold and heartfelt as it is timeless, a celebration of emotion, identity, and imagination in their most vivid forms.

It stands to reason that many vital albums come critically close to never being made. The eight-track upshot of doubt, upheaval and financial strain, Stains on Silence by Girls Names is one such . Following 2015s blitzing Arms Around a Vision, and the parting of drummer Gib Cassidy just over a year later, the Belfast band suddenly found themselves facing down a looming void. There was a finished and then aborted mix of the album, which was shelved for six months, reveals Girls Names frontman Cathal Cully. We then took a break from all music and went back to full-time work. We chilled out from the stress of rushing the record and not being happy with it, as well as being skint with no impending touring on the cards and constantly having to worry about rent. The stumbling blocks that proved a strain became the albums defining breakthrough. Recorded in various locations including Belfasts Start Together Studio with Ben McAuley, Cully's home and the bands practice space, spontaneous creation, cut-up techniques and self-editing took centre-stage for the first time. InchWe started tearing the material apart and rebuilding, re-editing and re-recording different parts in my home in early Autumn last year, says Cully. When we got them to a place we were happier with we went back into Start Together Studio with Ben McAuley to finalise the mixes to what they are now.Inch Where AAAV proved a brazen statement of intent, Stains on Silence bounds forth as it's feature-length comedown. What could have seen the band buckle became an opportunity for approaching things tabula rasa. During it's two-year transmutation, Cully, bassist Claire Miskimmin and guitarist Philip Quinn had a single aim for their fourth album to make an old-fashioned record clocking in around 30 to 35 minutes in length that made the listener reach straight for repeat.
