Various Artists – GRAMMOFON-MISSIONEN – A Selection of Swedish Jesus Music 1967-1982
As a practicing Eastern Orthodox Christian, this Jesus music might be a subject I know a little something about, though my normal preference is more Byzantine, Arabic or Slavonic and dates back to at least the 5th Century rather than the 20th.

Friend of the blog Gianpiero De Filippo, who records as The End Of Eternity, goes into a different direction with this recording. It’s less Berlin school and more techno, and very well done.
Michał Urbaniak – Decadence – (Soundtrack Album)
Though this disc was released in 2014, this long-forgotten soundtrack has the sound of something from the 1980s. Michał Urbaniak is, of course, in fine form here, and it’s good to see he’s releasing a lot of material, both new and archival, on Bandcamp.
