A. Savage - Black Holes, the Stars and You
Found through the Glass Beams similar artists radio. A song about orbiting someone who has no idea of their own magnitude.

Quick Note
Glass Beams
A Melbourne project that fuses Indian classical scales with 70s cosmic funk and desert psychedelia. Music that creates an angine de poitrine — a beautiful tightening of the chest.

Deep Dive
John Frusciante - To Record Only Water for Ten Days
A bedroom record made by one of the biggest guitarists on Earth, while his stadium band was selling out arenas. Going Inside anchors it, the miniatures around it hold it together — and the credits list is almost embarrassingly short.
Deep Dive
Peaches - The Teaches of Peaches
One woman, one Roland groovebox, and a thesis: the aesthetic is the art. Framed against the 2002 electroclash explosion — Miss Kittin, Fischerspooner, Felix da Housecat — and the ways Peaches outlasted the entire scene she came in with.
April 2026
Deep Dive
Aphex Twin - Drukqs
A monster and a lullaby. Drukqs is a double album that contradicts itself at every turn — and at its heart, a broken upright piano and a two-minute piece that became one of electronic music's most intimate confessions.
Quick Note
Oneohtrix Point Never - Tranquilizer
Daniel Lopatin presenting Tranquilizer at Culturgest, Lisbon — and the bridge it builds back to the Marty Supreme soundtrack.
Deep Dive
Maxime Denuc - Nachthorn
Rave-baroque fusion that finds the common ancestor both traditions share: mathematical precision, physical resonance, and collective altered states.

Deep Dive
Guru - Jazzmatazz Vol. 3: Streetsoul
The album that caught an entire scene at its most electric — right before the world figured out how to commercialise it.
February 2026
Quick Note
Rão Kyão - Malpertuis
Rare Portuguese jazz with deep African roots — bamboo flute as the centre of something that barely has a name.
Deep Dive
Paul McCartney - McCartney II
The Beatle who abandoned his studios to record drums in the bathroom. McCartney II is still his strangest, most prescient album — and I can't stop thinking about it.
Quick Note
Bruno Pernadas - unlikely, maybe
Live at Culturgest for the new album presentation. Bruno Pernadas keeps shapeshifting.
Deep Dive
Billie Eilish - Hit Me Hard And Soft
Unconventional production, raw vulnerability, and a final act that transforms the entire album. Billie Eilish's third record caught me completely off guard.
Quick Note
Paul McCartney 3,2,1 with Rick Rubin - A New Perspective
How Rick Rubin's documentary changed my perspective on McCartney and inspired a deeper exploration.
Quick Note
Electrelane - Rock It to the Moon
Debut album by Brighton's all-female experimental rock band - Stereolab-influenced yet boldly unique.
Deep Dive
Alice Coltrane - Journey in Satchidananda
Spiritual jazz masterpiece. Hindu-jazz synthesis and music as meditation.
January 2026
Deep Dive
Tindersticks - Curtains
Orchestral melancholy and emotional architecture. Lisbon memories in sound.
Deep Dive
Beck - Odelay
Genre-collage maximalism and the sound of the 90s. Beck at his most restless and experimental.
Quick Note
Rafael Toral - Traveling Light
Live experimental electronic performance at Culturgest, Lisbon.
