Pitchfork

Magazine
Though only half the length of their 2025 breakthrough debut, the New York quartet’s second album is dense with ideas and enlivened by purpose.
ELEGY EP
The New York cello-saxophone duo trades the strictures of classical music for more exploratory tones and textures, fusing the expansiveness of film scores with the immediacy of pop.
ULTRA
On her debut album, the chameleonic Argentine artist offers bouncy club absurdism and Latin electroclash steeped in hedonism, provocation, and sexual autonomy.
Backrooms (Original Soundtrack)
The dark-ambient score for A24’s hit horror film is at its best when it embraces the offbeat and uncanny.
