Lovepark
This track first featured on esoj in October but the stream promptly disappeared and it is definitely worthy of a repost with the news of its release on Snaketown Records on 26th May.
Sea Change
Oslo's producer of hypnotic electro-pop Ellen Sunde returns with a mildly unnerving litany of geographic references in her new release 'Bridges'.

Cumbres Carrascosa
There's a new 7 track release out from Cumbres Carrascosa, the Canary Islands' very own dronewave heroes.
Easy
Pastoral loveliness is out in full force on 'Foxholes' from Californian outfit Easy. 'Vexed' is a more choppy but equally rewarding affair.
xBanquetx
No idea who xBanquetx is/are or where they are from beyond being based in the UK but they certainly have a nice line in emotive music.

One of the gents from Mont who made one of our top tracks of 2013, has produced some very interesting abstractions via his solo project ColeFord.

Narcotic lo-fi songwriting from Reading's self styled solitary cosmonaut Rhys Williams. Utterly glorious.
