Bohemia Al-Andalus by Gnawledge
"Granada Doaba explores the broad roots and divergent branches of flamenco hip-hop." Until I'd heard Bohemia Al-Andalus, I'd no idea flamenco hip-hop even existed.

Closing Time by Stealing Orchestra
Like much of Stealing Orchestra's record The Incredible Shrinking Band, Closing Time is full of carnival sounds. But it blends those sounds into something straightforward and sinister.

Something For Your M.I.N.D. by Superorganism
Gorilla vs Bear points me at this "impossibly infectious, [...] fully-formed, irreverent Gorillaz-style pop": Something for Your M.I.N.D., and it is gloriously weird.

BMood by Podington Bear
BMood plays longer than the typical track from the Sound of Picture Production Library. It starts with a beat and piano and ends curiously with some sparsely attended winds.

Abismo by Los Cuatrocientos Golpes
Skillfully crunchy churning guitars and growling vocals make Abismo a solid metal song, but the clean singing sounds sloppy in a style more reminiscent of punk rock.

Sorry I Ruined Your Life by State Shirt
The dark themes that prevail much of State Shirt's music sit right in the title of Sorry I Ruined Your Life. Fortunately the looping laptop pop sensibilities that prevail his music are also there in spades.
