    Laura Marling - Once I Was An Eagle

    The Needle Drop

    Laura Marlin’s Once I Was An Eagle shows the British singer-songwriter moving even further away from her folk pop roots, and embracing a moodier sound. Not only that, but Laura’s battles with love seem to take center stage as this album’s prime subject matter. WATCH THE REVIEW

    Disclosure - Settle

    The Needle Drop

    On Settle, the fresh electronic music duo known as Disclosure brings a series of house and garage-inspired dance numbers that groove excitingly. Some of the vocal guests are pretty spectacular as well. Even if you’re not nutty about dance music, give it a try. WATCH THE REVIEW

    Bibio - Silver Wilkinson

    The Needle Drop

    The Needle Drop

    This new collection of Lord Quas tracks might not be as epic as this project’s debut LP in 2000, but it’s still an incredibly fun listen. WATCH THE REVIEW
