With so much good music coming through thick and fast, it’s easy for new music to drop online and go unnoticed. To help prevent this, we’ve picked five records you don’t want to sleep on. Stream music from Bambooman, Noname, Centre Electronique Muusa, Meridian Brothers and Claude. If you like what you hear, support the artist.
Bambooman – Feel EP
“The ‘Feel’ EP offers up a mixture of cascading melodic motifs and richly produced field recordings that combine to create a hit of warm electronica. Bambooman’s use of found sounds and real world recordings fit perfectly into the fold of label boss Matthew Herbert’s world.”
