• HARRY STAFFORD AND MARCO BUTCHER - from the excellent new album Bone Architecture
• KIM SALMON - the last couple of single from Kim 
• THE MOODISTS - the last set of tunes from my retrospective of the band - from the Peel Session 10th July 1985 - on the Creation Artefact Box Set
• BRIAN EATON -  his third full-length album, The Known Space Project, comes out on Friday, September 17 via his label, Eatin’ Records. Though a bit of a departure from his usual vocal rock sound, Eaton is no stranger to jazz/fusion.
• BOB ANDY - Having become firmly established as one of Jamaica’s premier singer-songwriters in the ‘60s and early ’70s, Bob Andy cemented his place in the pantheon of musical greats with his seminal album, ‘Lot Of Love And I’.
• BOUQUET OF DEAD CROWS -  preview track from the forthcoming release of the second half of their Hemispheres album. 
• CICCADA - A band from Athens, Greece -  The music of Ciccada is a mix of rock, jazz, folk and the Western European legacy from the middle-ages to 20th century.  
• DEAFHEAVEN -  On their fifth album, Infinite Granite, Deafheaven are no longer toying with the juxtaposition of pitting metallic abrasion against swirling grandeur. Quite the opposite: Infinite Granite is a bold and brave leap forward, a gorgeous and invigorating album brimming with pomp and panache.  It  is Deafheaven’s most goosebump-inducing album to date. 
• SHANNON & THE CLAMS -  a fantastic new album called Year of the Spider  , the band’s sixth studio album, rages against death and disease with the power of a thousand angry Ronettes. 
• THE MURLOCS - On their fifth album 'Bittersweet Demons', The Murlocs share a collection of songs reflecting on the people who leave a profound imprint on our lives, the saviors and hellraisers and assorted other mystifying characters.
• WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM -  Primordial Arcana is the band’s first completely self-contained work.
• ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA  - from a new compilation Beyond the Pale Horizon: British Progressive Pop Sounds of 1972.
• JED - the first single from the forthcoming album "Hi Tech Low Life".
• PETER HAMMILL - from the second solo album The Silent Corner and the Empty Stage from 1974.
• THE BATTERY FARM -  Roy Keane Isn't Real is the 2nd single from the forthcoming 2nd EP Dirty Den's March of Suffering, which is released on all platforms on Blindside Records 15th October.
• JOHN COLTRANE - Live in Seattle - Previously unreleased and one of the only two times it was played live - full album out in October - a septet with John Coltrane, McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, Elvin Jones, Pharoah Sanders, Carlos Ward and Donald Rafael Garrett. Featuring a preview track - Psalm.
