We’ve been waiting for one of our favorite local duos, Brijean, to top this list. Though last week’s champs Panda Bear and Sonic Boom maintain a slight lead with their LP “Reset” now out in the world, the ultra-fluid grooves of Brijean’s brand new full length “Angelo” are rapidly coursing upward.
Hot on Brijean’s très chic heels are Colombia’s Meridian Brothers. The love is multiplying for the pseudo-eponymous new album, “Meridian Brothers & El Grupo Renacimiento,” in which the band cosplays as a fictional 1970s salsa dura ensemble on a reunion tour. Plus, you’ll find brand new jams from Little Dragon, Broken Bells, and Eddie Chacon.
Peep the whole deal below, and give us a follow on Spotify!
