At least I was able to listen to music whilst dealing with all the work crap, and found no fewer than four new releases that I enjoyed and think are worth recommending. So I'm recommending them to you (in no particular order). • Radwan Ghazi Moumneh & Frédéric D. Oberland - Eternal Life No End ليلة ظلماء ملعونة، كحياة طالبيها https://rgmfdo.bandcamp.com/album/eternal-life-no-end This is a thrilling mix of traditional and electronic instruments, in a pounding but sometimes beautiful meditation on a world that's inexplicable and hurting. • Kronos Quartet - Glorious Mahalia https://kronosquartet.bandcamp.com/album/glorious-mahalia A telling of Mahalia Jackson's civil rights activist journey, up to the point where she stood with Martin Luther King at a podium in 1963 and insisted, "Tell them about the dream, Martin!". Formed from archive recordings of Jackson and her fellow campaigners, alongside original compositions and new arrangements. • Mohamed Doumbia et son Orchestre du Mali - Enregistrement Live No Limit Bamako https://mohameddoumbia.bandcamp.com/album/enregistrement-live-no-limit-bamako If you enjoy Malian guitar blues, this is superb. A late night club performance from Bamako by one of the tightest and most energetic Malian blues bands around today. • Devon Rexi meets John T. Gast - Breathstep https://accidentalmeetings.bandcamp.com/album/breathstep Indescribably chaotic and fantastically entertaining. Ideas pulled in from all over the world and stuck together in a dubby mix that makes no kind of sense but is irresistibly danceable. #music #2026music
