Ptaki: Przelot
The duo blend popular Polish songs from the ’70-80s together with contemporary rhythms like the trappy hats and hipopisms of Za Daleki Sen and the result is equal in functional bizarreness to the unlikelihood of the encounter.
Herbert: The Shakes
The Shakes is evidence that Herbert’s creative juices are still flowing at a great pace and the twilight of his career could be some way away.

Leandro Fresco: El Reino Invisible
For ‘El Reino Invisible’ we’re given the full Pop Ambient treatment, with a majestic sound sitting somewhere in between a demure, beat-less Ulrich Schnauss and a prolonged weepy existentialist comedown moment on a Tuesday.
