The first time I heard Catch The Breeze, I thought: I love this woman! more
Harrow
Cascadian black metal from Victoria, British Columbia more
Nico -Desertshore
Arcane, solemn, unsettling, unique. more
Captain Beefheart -Trout Mask Replica
An ocean of ideas that stands on disorder, a provocative and brilliant disorder. more
The Velvet Undergound & Nico -The Velvet Undergound & Nico
The rock masterpiece, released before "Sgt. Pepper's..." but overshadowed by it because of its complexity, based on suites, on acid and distorted timbres. more
Bob Theil -So far
Strongly evocative, one of the great singer-songwriter albums of the early '80s. more
Robbie Robertson -Music for The Native Americans
From "Ghost dance" onwards, a masterpiece that moves between Indian tradition and that of the European colonizers. more
Red House Painters
"like two sides of a wall / that separates two countries / he shuts out the world / and wants only to love you
Not wanting to die out here without you" more
This Mortal Coil -Blood
Imperfect as it is, it remains one of the peaks of the 4AD label. more
Nicki Minaj
silicon valley more
Lou Reed -New York
The divine cruelty of life according to Lou. From the very first piece, where he pokes fun at the Shakespearean drama and the idealistic view of love: "Romeo Had Juliette"... more
Lou Reed -Magic And Loss
No one has ever written an entire album about the death of two friends. Heartbreaking lyrics, Lou more melodic than usual but still sharp, raw, real. more
Einstürzende Neubauten -Tabula Rasa
Disturbing, innovative, energetic, with incredibly original lyrics (on the web you can also find the translation from German, if you look for it a bit). more
Belle And Sebastian -Tigermilk
A small, unforgettable gem from the past decade. Just the opening notes of Tigermilk capture the world of Belle And Sebastian: that bare, fragile voice, venturing out alone into the world, and those lines laced with irony. There are no virtuoso displays or revolutions within the grooves of the record, but it is the perfect simplicity of its melodic insights that immediately captivates. more
Nick Cave -Henry's Dream
Cave's nightmares and his visions, a gallery of characters moving against their backdrop, an unblemished inspiration... more
Joni Mitchell -Hejira
Mitchell at his peaks. Interiority told like, perhaps, no one else. more
Tim Buckey -Lorca
Beyond any classification, at the very heart of music and its arcane mystery. more
Dead Can Dance -Toward the Within'
Live on this album, you traverse a good portion of the duo's production, with the usual distant scenarios in time and space evoked flawlessly, under the light of a perfectly inspiring intensity. more
Sonic Youth -Dirty
Destruction and reconstruction, the eternal dyad embodied by the music of the Sonic. more
