SBTRKT returns to the world with an entrancing and fractal mountain of sound. billy woods and Kenny Segal lace up for a weird and wild exploration. Emily King returns to form on her fourth studio album. And Denzel Curry lights up the house that Jimi built with a deep and energetic live album.
There's also some very purple and paisley modern funk via Q, some existential galaxy-braining from Atmosphere, a dynamic and deceptively dark new project from IDK, and that's just half the story.
