Panda Bear & Sonic Boom’s “Reset” enjoys a three-week streak at number one as KCRW DJs tread further into its swirling, consciousness-expanding atmosphere.
New ideas are forming simultaneously, chief among them that “No Rules Sandy,” the recently released surprise full-length from Sylvan Esso, is injecting a spirit of playful experimentation into the upper rungs of the chart.
Brand new to the proceedings are “So Bad,” the latest single from St. Panther; “Sentimental Fool,” the title track from soul-stirrer Lee Fields’ first album in three years; and “José Louis And The Paradox Of Love,” the gorgeous new full length from Montréal’s foremost purveyor of gentle beats ‘n’ grooves, Pierre Kwenders.
