I've Got Me
Joanna Sternberg ·2023
"I really liked their first EP or record, I'm not sure which one it is, and this one is just as good, if not better. It's sad but good."

"I really like the songwriting on it; like, they use classic chord progressions, but then there's always like one surprising extra thing that happens. Every song has so many moments that will move on to the next section, and then there'll be like another one and another one without being more than like three or four minutes long, which is pretty cool."

EL MAL QUERER
ROSALÍA ·2018
"El MAL QUERER is the first Rosalia album that I got into, and it's just really, really good. I don't know, the production style is very cool, and I really like the songs a lot, and obviously she's just kind of iconic."

Instrumentals
Various Artists ·2024
"it's a great album I listen to this on flights but I can't ever remember really which ones I remember the first bit of volume 2 is really good... it's just like musically just all sort of sits together really nicely and really well it's very like neatly arranged thanks Arthur Russell."

Heart Food
Judee Sill ·1973
"I've got Judy Sill's Heart Food, which is an amazing album. I think we all love that. The music is incredible; it's produced in kind of a weird way like her voice is always double tracked in some kind of strange way and it's like really haunting."
