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 The Fawbak Experiment, Siya Makuzeni, Deborah Jordon, Marcus D and Chongo. If you like what you hear, support the artist.
The Fawbak Experiment – The Third Space EP
“From the very first notes, the music is quietly immersive, takes you until another space, time and life’s feeling. As a little fruit on a planet, contemplating the immensity of a galactic road built from billions of stars, a so impressive combination of infinity, dark and cold light.”

Deborah Jordan – The Limehouse Session EP
“Imagine going into a beautiful studio with your favourite musicians and collaborators for a few hours, without rehearsals, to record live, one take interpretations of select songs from your back catalogue. This is exactly what Deborah has done and the results are beautifully deep, heartfelt and intimate thanks to the magical energy and musical mastery of Marc Rapson, Mr Mensah and Laurie Lowe.”
