deary, Massive Attack/Tom Waits and more – Playlist #775
New Music
Playlist #775 opens with deary‘s Alma — it’s a track from their debut album Birding, which just dropped earlier this month on Bella Union. A big surprise this week is the unexpected but very welcome collaboration between Massive Attack and Tom Waits. Champions Bore Me from Gurry Wurry is on there too, sitting nicely alongside Juha Mäki-Patola and a new track from the formidable Fatoumata Diawara. Rounding things out: Panic Shack‘s Pockets, Work Money Death‘s sprawling A Portal To Here – Sometimes It’s Death, and Body Type. Welcome to the week.
