O is the hugely anticipated debut album from New York City’s white-hot duo, Fcukers. Having quickly built a reputation for their electric live shows and irresistibly catchy hooks, Shanny Wise and Jackson Walker Lewis have gone from playing standing-room only shows at Baby’s All Right to packed out stadiums supporting Tame Impala, Justice, and Dom Dolla and selling out their own 1k+ headline shows in the space of just 2 years! Along the way they’ve played every major festival including Coachella, Glastonbury, Primavera, Lollapalooza and opened for Haim, multiple dates for LCD Soundsystem and gained a long list of including Harry Styles, Charli xcx, David Byrne, Clairo, Fontaines DC and Beck, who recently joined them on stage at their LA headline show.
After 2024’s Baggy$$ EP, which spawned the band’s biggest hit “Bon Bon” as well as earworm “Homie Don’t Shake”, all eyes have been firmly on the pair to find out what happens next, and Fcukers do not disappoint. A brief meeting with Kenneth Blume (FKA Kenny Beats) - fresh off producing Geese’s Getting Killed - turned into a whirlwind session at Blume’s studio, where they recorded the entirety of their new album. With 100 gecs’ Dylan Brady providing additional production on tracks across the album, and multi-Grammy-winning engineer Tom Norris (Lady Gaga, Charli xcx, The Weeknd) coming on board to mix the album. The result is 11 tracks that make you feel like you’re at the afterparty.
Fcukers will follow up their album release with their first full North American headline tour and another round of summer festivals. There's no sign of slowing down for this band continually on the rise.

"CAPRISONGS" showcases a new side of FKA Twigs - one that's always been present but not in public. The songs are fun, carefree, upbeat and bold, brimming with messages of confidence and independence. Along with the bangers and bops are vulnerable, honest, eerie and soft songs that highlight FKA Twigs' lyrical prowess and vocal acrobatics. "CAPRISONGS," her first release on Atlantic Records, is a departure for the Grammy-nominated visual icon's previous works but it's also a reflection of where she is today. The 17-track mixtape documents her personal growth. "It's weird because, in some ways, this is my most fun project. But in other ways, it's my most honest and the deepest. It's a very fine line of how to describe it because, to me, it's not just like throwaway bangers. I think, if you really listen to the lyrics, maybe I'm really telling the truth as well," she says. "It was a bigger challenge because I don't really think I've ever channeled my art, particularly, through happiness before. "

Frankie Archer has exploded onto the electrofolk scene with music that transcends stereotypes. Frankie has been featured on 'Later... With Jools Holland' and championed by tastemakers at BBC Radio 2 and BBC 6 Music. Following the release of her debut EP 'Never So Red' (November, 2023), she has supported the likes of The Futureheads and The Last Dinner Party on tour. On 'The Dance Of Death', Archer channels these experiences and reconstructs some of the oldest songs in the English canon with fractured, future-facing production. Working from archival ballads of obsession, devotion and loss, she warps fiddle lines, processes her own vocals and drives the material with pulsing drum machines and colorful synth arrangements. Co-produced with Guy Massey (Kylie Minogue, Spiritualized, Richard Hawley), the record expands English folk into something immersive and modern. Influenced by the work of Little Dragon, Hannah Peel, RosalÃa, Björk and Bat for Lashes, Archer approaches folk as a producer first. Inspired by the medieval Danse Macabre, 'The Dance Of Death' is, in Archer's words, "a collection of nu-ancient trad bangers" - stark narratives of mortality and longing rebuilt through meticulous studio experimentation.

Following the jazzy library vibes of 2023’s collaborative Dolphin LP with Greg Foat and Moses Boyd, the venetian maestro Gigi Masin returns to the ambience for which he is renowned, with Movement—his first solo full-length since 2020’s Calypso, and his Sacred Bones Records debut. Fuelled by creative reinvention and rhythmic motion, he moves seamlessly between melancholy MIDI notes, technoid robotics, groovy liminal cloudscapes, and fathoms-deep ambient aquatics.Since early beginnings in obscurity, his 1986 debut album Wind slowly built an organic following on late night radio, later bolstered when “Clouds” was sampled by artists like Björk, Post Malone, and more. He now counts Oneohtrix Point Never, Devendra Banhart, Caroline Polachek, and the late Kenny Wheeler as fans. The new album Movement reflects on Masin’s place within the pantheon of ambient masters, his ongoing artistic ambitions, and his aspirations for a scene which he’s seen grow exponentially from humble beginnings. The lp is also an ode to literal movement, both in nature, and in human physical expressions to sound. Masin strived to make ambient music for movement, not in the standard dance music sense, but “dynamic music, with a beating heart full of love.” Reconfiguring ambient’s associationwith solitary listening and cold academia, Gigi went outwards, channeling something somatic that connects with the body, not just the mind.“Bed on Mars” sets the titular tone for Masin’s renewed curiosity, with cosmic atmospherics evoking the sensation of waking up on a new planet unafraid, whilst the poignant synthesized trumpet and suspended liminal limbo of “Lost” feels like floating adrift in an unknown sea. Delving further into off-centre beats is the celestial techno funk of “Deception Dance,” which sounds like Sun Electric jamming with Carl Craig and Kraftwerk. The bright beaming light of “Golden” radiates warmth, sounding like the bossa-nova brother of Göttsching’s Balearic classic E2 E4.Despite the passing of his wife after a long illness, and losing his musical archive in a flood, Gigi remains pure-at-heart and positive, pouring his soul into the pursuit of beauty. The latest in a slow-starting but steadily building career, Movement sees Masin continue to secure his seat at the table of true ambient greats.

G70 2: Bones Of Dundasa is the long-delayed second album by Toronto duo Glissandro 70, assembled from recordings made between 2004 and 2015, lost in 2016, and restored nearly a decade later. Rather than a retrospective, the album plays as a fully realized statement, shaped by distance, reassessment, and selective augmentation. Across concise electronic pieces, dub-inflected mutations, rhythm-led constructions, and expanded song forms, Craig Dunsmuir and Sandro Perri explore tension between structure and interference. Contributions from Peter Zummo, Jeremy Strachan, Ryan Driver, and a closing remix by Dan Bodan deepen the record's sense of continuity across time. Released on Constellation in LP, CD, and digital formats.

The Endless Dance is the first collaborative album from Northern Irish producer and composer Hannah Peel and Chinese percussionist Beibei Wang. The record is grounded in the strength of ancient concepts but comes alive with the joy and freedom of play as together, Peel and Wang travel through the 24 solar terms of the Chinese calendar with a cornucopia of sound in tow - synths and prepared piano alongside traditional and unconventional percussion. The album is collaged together from recordings made over five days at legendary rural studio Real World, a setting which aligned with the duo's inspiration from the natural world creating a permanent record of their shared musical landscape, informed by the flora and fauna that emerge and retreat through the seasons. Both genre-defying, storied artists in their own right, Peel and Wang met while working on Manchester Collective's 2023 album NEON and The Endless Dance certainly represents a step-change from the duo's shared classical backgrounds - but their knowledge and training is also the foundation of it's freewheeling audacity, giving them the confidence to trust their instincts. The album is produced by Mike Lindsay [LUMP, Tunng, Guy Garvey, Jon Hopkins] who, with free rein, brings added energy and creativity to the album.

Mexican electro-industrial icons Hocico return with a new descent into the abyss: Unseen Horror Scenes. On this latest studio assault, Erk Aicrag and Racso Agroyam dissect the digital age's paranoia, addiction, betrayal, and spiritual decay with surgical precision-no escape, only confrontation. Track by track, Unseen Horror Scenes drags listeners through algorithmic madness ("Brainrot"), online cowardice ("The Screen"), scorched-earth fury ("Hey Tú!" featuring Rafael Reyes of Prayers), and the smoldering ruins of a "Fallen Paradise." From the opening attack, "Dark Paradigm," to the apocalyptic closer, "Echoes of the End," the album pulses with hyperkinetic drum-and-bass injections, punishing industrial rhythms, razor-edged EBM sequences, and Erk's unmistakable, venom-laced vocals. Raw, furious, and disturbingly accurate for our times, Hocico confront modern decay head-on by critiquing it, amplifying it, distorting it, and ultimately making you dance inside it.

Ital Tek's new album 'Mind Abandon' embraces a human touch in contrast to the dense, world-building drone of his previous work. This time, he set out to compose away from the computer as much as possible - working instinctively and allowing himself to get lost in the music. The natural starting point was his own voice, processing vocals into shifting pads and textures. His guitar sits at the centre of much of the record, joined by live, hand-played percussion and effects. The result is an album of spacious contrasting dynamics, with textures pressing against each other and rhythmic elements fighting to surface from the viscous, layered sound.

When KAYTRANADA left the 2021 Grammys with two awards (Best Dance/Electronic Album for 2019’s BUBBA and Best Dance Recording for “10%”) he made history as the first Black and first openly gay artist to win the former category. The industry recognition was long overdue for the producer who had been building a devout following for nearly a decade. “In my mind I was finally a true artist,” he tells Apple Music’s Zane Lowe. After relocating to Los Angeles, he channeled that confidence into making his third solo album, TIMELESS: “It felt more serious—more legit. I was still having fun making TIMELESS, but making BUBBA was another type of fun where I didn’t really take it seriously.”Like its predecessor, TIMELESS is a collection of club grooves for catching a vibe. It’s packed with guests who effortlessly acclimate to KAYTRANADA’s singular sound while imprinting their own touch. Ravyn Lenae offers breathy seductions on the hard-edged R&B of “Video,” and Thundercat delivers comical disses in soothing falsetto on the jazzy hip-hop of “Wasted Words.” Back-to-back tracks “Do 2 Me” (featuring Anderson .Paak and SiR) and “Witchy” (featuring Childish Gambino) hit an energy peak, their tales of late-night infatuation framed by sultry, body-enveloping production.

The iconic and influential electronic pop group Ladytron returns with a new album 'Paradises' - their first since 2023's critically acclaimed 'Time's Arrow'.Spanning dance and indie movements since their formation in Liverpool at the end of the last millennium, Ladytron have earned a unique position by carving out new sonic and conceptual space, and refusing to abide by formula or trend. In the early 2000s, the fiercely individual group were placed at the forefront of the so-called electro-clash scene (which now enjoys another revival), but with time, they came to appreciate the pop cultural moment that they had reluctantly become part of.The new album follows a period of renewed cultural presence for the band. Their 2002 single "Seventeen" unexpectedly went viral on TikTok, introducing Ladytron's sound to a new generation and amassing hundreds of thousands of fan-made clips. Their legacy was further acknowledged recently with "Destroy Everything You Touch," one of their most celebrated tracks, featured in the GRAMMY-nominated original Motion Picture Soundtrack of cult movie Saltburn, reaffirming Ladytron's enduring appeal.

2026 release. Lithic is Laura Misch's immersive new album, a sonic journey through stone, water, wind, and lightning. Building on the ethereal heights of Sample of Sky and the earthy intimacy of Sample of Earth, Misch conjures music from caves, quarries, rock pools, and coastal edges, merging field recordings with saxophone, voice, electronics, strings, and percussion. Struck slate, ancient lithophones, hydrophones, and geophones create rhythms and textures that feel both primordial and contemporary. Across London, Cornwall, Hydra, and Dungeness, Misch captures the dialogue between human and more-than-human, crafting a record that resonates like deep time itself. Lithic is a meditation on nature, aging, and connection, offering listeners a profound, elemental listening experience that is at once visceral, meditative, and electrifying.

Loukeman, the project of Toronto producer, DJ, and songwriter Luke Fenton, delivers Sd-3, the trilogy-closing third installment of his vibrant, far-reaching, free-flowing electronic music. Since 2021, each album has seen his profile rise steadily, bolstered by high-profile shows along some notable names in dance music, as well as songwriting and production work for A$AP Rocky, PinkPantheress, Dyltwosix, and more. He’s toured internationally alongside the launch of his own series of club nights and earned praise from various corners of the underground dance community, including Resident Advisor, Mixmag, and Pitchfork. The latter outlet pinpoints Loukeman’s “percussive musicality,” an ability to bend vocal earworms from R&B, folk, and pop into restless, imaginative tracks that shift from booming house bangers to wistful, airy excursions. What holds Sd-3 together, like the music that preceded it, is Loukeman’s knack for emotional resonance and a curiosity to go anywhere as long as it’s honest and unforced.
Threaded throughout, the contemplative stretches — like the spiraling guitar on “All Kindz” and “John Bird Song” or the woozy synth and chatter of “What a Rip” — give Sd-3 extra depth and reveal a tinge of vulnerability for Loukeman. He reflects, “I can see the angst, you know, the anxiety in certain songs. I think those are my favorite ones, the ones that are just dealing with love in some way.” That gets to the heart of what makes Loukeman’s music so effective: one can move to it and be moved by it. Sd-3 is further proof of a singular talent, closing one era, and surely just getting started. UPC: 820200277824Label: September RecordsRelease Date: 4.24.26Format: CD
2024 release. Anthemic and fast-paced, the new studio album MG Ultra is Machine Girl's heaviest music to date and offers a boiling-the-frog intro to MG for new fans. MG lore juxtaposes whether the picture painted is that of reality, a fantastical escape or a jarring future. Infamous for cathartic, unpredictable performances and genre-agnostic catalog, Machine Girl's vitriolic, organic following has developed through sonic maximalism and anime/B-horror visual flair.
