Tegh & Adel Poursamadi – Ima (ایما)
Tegh & Adel Poursamadi are a duo from Tehran, Iran, who are bringing a new spin to electroacoustic and experimental music. Sadly, only one track is available for the moment, but it shows how the duo meld string instruments and electronic soundscapes together seamlessly.
Sun Ra & His Arkestra – Ellingtonia, Vol. 1
It’s a great time to be a Sun Ra fan, especially on projects like this. This album is full of reinterpretations of the Duke Ellington catalog.
Boztown – In Memory of Freedom
This was a pleasant surprise. I’m new to Boztown, a trip-hop band out of France, and they have a warm, dark, rather crusty sound to them.
The Pink Elephant – Mellowing
Latvian band The Pink Elephant play a mellow psychedelic rock that has an authentic vibe to it. Not a bad neo-psych release at all.
Various Artists – Shirley Inspired…
There is, apparently, a documentary film coming out on the life of Shirley Collins, the grand dame of British folk music who worked with such artists as disparate as Davey Graham and Current 93.

Vtoroy Etazh Porazhayet – Kraynosty

They are released by the French record label Belka Records. Their sound will appeal strongly to those who are into the post-punk renaissance of the past five years or…
TEKE::TEKE – Shirushi
TEKE::TEKE are a band out of Canada who combine a punk aesthetic with psychedelic music and Japanese soundtrack music from the 1960s. It’s about as unique a release as I’ve heard in some time.

Enjoy the pleasures of Trio Paloma, Serbia’s answer to mariachi music!
Mankunku Quartet – Yakhal’ Inkomo (Special Edition)
This is one of South Africa’s best jazz outings. It features tenor saxophonist Winston “Mankunku” Ngozi and the album blends not only South African jazz but also the works of John Coltrane and Horace Silver. A swinging release.

[Video] My Obsession With Wartime Yugoslav Music
I hate turbofolk, but there is a sick charm to the genre. A Youtuber called snakelover23 is the one who originally posted this video, but I can’t seem to find his account. This is a repost.
