Mica Levi – Under the Skin OST (2014)
You won’t hear a more gorgeously freaky score this year than Mica
Levi’s unnerving, scratchy and altogether seductive soundtrack to
Jonathan Glazer’s “Under the Skin.” Like the film, about an alien
succubus among us and in the comely guise of Scarlett Johansson, the
score is weird, atonal, discordant and something to get lost in.For comparison’s sake, the score’s closest companions may be the
dissonant labyrinths of avant-garde composers Krzysztof Penderecki and
Gyorgi Lygeti, used frequently by Stanley Kubrick in “The Shining” and
“2001: A Space Odyssey.” But Levi’s work is its own alien, and at times
sounds more than a bit like far-flung Morse code from outer space.

Road North (Mika Kaurismäki, 2012)
Road North, Mika Kaurismaki’s latest, takes the story
of drunk dead-beat dad who came to dinner after decades and transforms
into a road movie. The warm sweet comedy of family reunions and
revealed secrets is as mainstream as this veteran bad-boy director gets.
Getting beyond the mainstream of Finland’s market will be its
challenge.

Under the Skin (Jonathan Glazer, 2013)
... Neocekivani masterpiece ...
Under the Skin gets under your skin, and doesn’t let go. But it wasn’t love at first sight mind you. The first time I watched Jonathan Glazer’s sci-fi indie film, I was left scratching my head. What on earth? What had just happened? Why this, what that?
But the visceral imagery, mesmerizing score (Mica Levi), and, especially, Scarlet Johansson’s daring performance stuck with me for days. Glazer does all but completely throw out the rule-book when it comes to telling a story of alien invasion. It’s unlike anything I’ve seen before. And, yet, after the first viewing, I was left equally underwhelmed and dumbfounded.

Pete Molinari – Theosophy (2014)
... Album of the month ...
Pete Molinari – if you don’t know anything about him, he’s great” – Bruce Springsteen
Pete completed his fourth album "Theosophy” in early 2014, recording most of the original album tracks with Jim and Rob Homes at Humbug Studios on the Isle Of Wight, then adding the talents of producer Liam Watson, acclaimed DJ/re-mixer Andrew Weatherall, Grammy award-winning producer/mixer Tchad Blake and guest musicians Dan Auerbach and Barrie Cadogan to the process. It was important to Pete to have the contributions of all of these diverse and creative minds, which meant taking time with the recording was essential.

First Aid Kit – Stay Gold (2014)
Swedish sisters Klara and Johanna Söderberg first made their names with
feather-light chamber-folk confections that echoed the soaring sweetness
of Fleet Foxes. A cover of that band’s Tiger Mountain Peasant Song
even helped launch the then-teenagers to YouTube fame back in 2008. But
in 2014, styles have changed and so have the Söderbergs: First Aid Kit‘s major-label debut, Stay Gold, moves well beyond the portentous prettiness of the pair’s 2012 breakthrough, The Lion’s Roar.

Keaton Henson – Romantic Works (2014)
Keaton Henson's latest release, the "bedroom classical" experiment known as Romantic Works,
is the dictionary definition of a surprise album. Fans expecting a
follow up to the mostly delicate, occasionally vicious, but always
gorgeous guitar-and-vocals record which was Birthdays were
instead greeted with sparse piano pieces and lightly humming strings.
Gone is the now familiar ache in Keaton's voice as he bares his heart to
the world, gone are the beautiful but distant female vocals, long gone
are the surprise explosions into distorted guitars and drums. Perhaps
most noticeably of all, gone are the lyrics, spinning us heart-wrenching
stories of heartbreak and loss and leaving yet more feelings of absence
in their wake. Instead, we are greeted by the empty, emotionless sound
of footsteps and mournful strings playing almost at random which is
"Preface."

Comet Gain return with their seventh album Paperback Ghosts, their first since 2011′s critically acclaimed Howl of The Lonely Crowd.
Recorded at Soup Studios with producer Simon Trought at the helm, and
inspired by the psycho-geography of walks in North London woods and in
the forgotten grey hinterland of the city’s back streets, Paperback
Ghosts comes soaked in autumn melancholy. Tender-hearted but not
miserable, defiant but not angry, it maintains the delicate balance that
has always been Comet Gain’s strength.
