May 5, 2023

One of the most eventful New Music Fridays we’ve seen in some time spells extra satisfying cellophane rips for FREAKS ONLY. SBTRKT’s The Rat Road gives us a collab with Little Dragon; Fred again.. teams with Brian Eno for the instant blood-pressure dropper of an album Secret Life (out via Four Tet’s Text Records); and Flume’s second LP drop of ‘23 Arrived Anxious, Left Bored has us dipping in for multiple servings.
