    Todd Terje - It's Album Time

    The Needle Drop

    While scatterbrained and underwhelming at times, Todd’s debut record here has some top-notch dance jams on it with a vintage flair.

    SZA - Z ft. Cakes Da Killa

    The Needle Drop

    It pains me to say it, but I don’t care for this new SZA record at all. Not just because some of the tunes are unmemorable, but her own vocal guests just step all over her and these songs.

    Sisyphus - Self-Titled

    The Needle Drop

    Tony Molina - Dissed and Dismissed

    The Needle Drop

    While the incredible brevity of this new Tony Molina record makes it a little gimmicky, the infectious melodies and breakup album concept are enough to make me overlook that most of the time. If you like your power pop rough and punk-influenced, give this a listen.

    White Hinterland - Baby

    The Needle Drop

    White Hinterland’s third album is the most instrumentally complex thing I’ve heard this project deliver thus far. Not only that but mastermind Casey Dienel’s voice is sounding better than ever between all of these power piano ballads and dense, soulful art pop tunes.
