Another week looking very similar to the last; indicative of several things. New entries from:

2 – new album out on Olde English Spelling Bee. Bucolic electronic sonic vistas, the sound of the sky during day break spun through heady fx. That kind of thing.
8 - Nadda Noor from Norway. Solo Witch House lady who has done jibberjabber vocals for Mater Suspiria Vision
9 – More of a re-entry. I’m surprised Tearist isn’t in the top 15 too, because I thought I was playing that more. But still, refeeling the power of Whyte Ring.
14 – Ludicrously slowed down drag from a guy in Alabama (I think). Self appointed king of GhostSlop.

Track of the week:

The new song from Washed Out of course. It couldn’t really be anything else. The addition of vocals from Chairlift’s Caroline Polachek adds a sense of melancholic romanticism, like a distant summer romance remembered.
