"I love this record, it's my favorite Sade record. I'm personally a huge Sade fan; she's an incredible songwriter. The music is this kind of awesome combination of being super fun sometimes and then other times just being really dark and kind of sparse minimal ballads."Watch this moment
"Lonely Is an Eyesore, the 4AD compilation from the mid to late '80s, has a lot of really rad bands on this record. This actually has one of my favorite Cocteau Twins tracks called 'Crushed' on it. Elizabeth Fraser is such an amazing influential vocalist."Watch this moment
"I love Yves Tumor's last record... this record is really fantastic, really well-written songs, lots of cool guest features and stuff like that. The instrumentation is super interesting and I think there's like a nice blend of kind of more organic traditional instrumentation and weirder kind of electronics and samples."Watch this moment
"Before and After Science by Brian Eno is probably one of my favorite records ever. The first half is kind of like the Eve Toomer record, just an incredible but experimental leaning pop record, lots of cool production choices, and then the second half of this record is just an equally amazing ambient record."Watch this moment
"Human Snake by P22 is just this record... it's just like a really awesome, like smart punk record musically and lyrically. I think just really smart and fun to listen to."Watch this moment
"Virgins by Tim Hecker is an all-time favorite of mine. I feel like this falls into a weird category of kind of like active listening ambient records, like ambient records that are not necessarily meant to be put on in the background but that are so dense and have so much going on that you can kind of sit there and really appreciate them."Watch this moment
