	Pink Colour Surgery Artist: The Psychotic Monks | Release Date: 2023.02.03 Comments Coming Soon Favorite Track: ★☆
	Ex Machina Artist: Steve Lehman, Orchestre National de Jazz | Release Date: 2023.09.15 Comments Coming Soon Favorite Track: ★☆
	Sound Renovates A Structure Artist: 아소토유니언 (Asoto Union) | Release Date: 2003.11.19 Need these guys at my next family barbecue. Old school laidback funk and soul. Mostly instrumental. A little toooo laidback to be listening to all the time. Favorite Track: Think About' Chu ★★☆☆☆
	마니또 (MANITO) Artist: QWER | Release Date: 2024.04.01 QWER continuing to lead the otaku-inspired music boom in Korea. 탕후루 sugar syrup melodies and ultra-bright arrangements. The whole point of this band is that they learned instruments, but the album version of the single is taken over by synths. Favorite Track: 고민중독 (T.B.H) ★★☆☆☆
	The New Romantics Artist: The New Romantics | Release Date: 2023.10.27 Mix of different 80/90s styles all done really well. Would fit in perfectly at the local thing I went to once that had like 3 guys in leather jackets swaying back and forth. Maybe I'll get a leather jacket too after I go bald. Favorite Track: Something ★★★☆☆
	The Doober Artist: Sam Gendel, Sam Wilkes | Release Date: 2024.05.01 Still lo-fi, but much more low key and pensive their last album. Still saxxing and bassing it up. Lot of mouth drums and drum machines. Exactly what I need or kind of a drag depending on my mood. Favorite Track: BOA 2 ★★☆☆☆
	Delusional Artist: Dev Lemons | Release Date: 2023.05.26 Some nice indie pop. Soft, gentle, playful, with grittier parts throughout. Mellow vocals that go well over both heavy synths and warbly guitars. Waking me up from all the ambient I've been floating in. Favorite Track: You Tear Me Apart ★★★☆☆
	夜明け前 (Before Sunrise) Artist: 大和那南 (Nana Yamato) | Release Date: 2021.02.05 Bedroom pop is right I'm in my jammies. Underwhelming compared to its popularity. All the amateur with almost none of the charm. Favorite Track: Burning Desire ★☆☆☆☆
	Canyon Artist: Saloli | Release Date: 2023.07.07 Real analog meditation hours. Written as the soundtrack to a typical day in the life of a bear. Hell yeah. Fun concept, easy on the ears, maybe I'll become a bear one day and get drunk on rotting apples. Favorite Track: Full Moon ★★★☆☆
	Some Things Take Time Artist: Cisco Swank, Luke Titus | Release Date: 2022.04.15 Back at it again but with a drummer friend. Neojazz with the time feel that keeps you on your toes and the drums that go dddadadadatdattingdadadat. Stankface Inducer 3000. Favorite Track: Could It Be You ★★★☆☆
