The Veil's album 'Sun Gangs' was released just before the summer and I
keep coming back to it. I reckon it's one of the best indy/alt rock
releases this year.

I had the privilege of attending the debut performance of The Crimson
Wing score performed live by The Cinematic Orchestra at the Union
Chapel. It was stunning.

Not content with releasing only 2 amazing albums this year, Bibio has
just released 'The Apple And The Tooth'. Granted there are more
remixes than new material on it but it's all top quality.

There is little information to be found on the internets about Dorian Concept. I found him through the magic that is the recommendation system on Last.fm
His sound is difficult to pigeonhole, i'd say it's experimental electronic hip-hop (even if the track i've posted isn't hip-hop).Either way it's really good.

Released earlier this year, 'Wall Of Arms' is the 2nd album from
british indie band The Maccabees. The whole album is really strong,
its not just regular old indie as it's got trumpets and horns and all
sorts - it was produced by Markus Dravs who has worked with Bjork and
also with Arcade Fire on their album 'Neon Bible' (which is also
great) and explains a lot.

Kona Triangle are a collaboration of British electronic artists Lone and Keaver & Brause. Their debut album 'Sing a New Sapling Into Existence' has just been released and it's amazing.
It's ambient, has cool beats; a cross between hip-hop and dub-step. Well worth a listen.Comments [0]
Yahzarah first got her break as a backing vocalist for Erykah Badu on "Mama's Gun" she also features on a couple of the Foreign Exchange albums.
Having said that I didn't realise this before I recently discovered and enjoyed her album 'The Prelude'. Either way it's some good quality neo-soul.Comments [0]
