Released earlier this year in Europe, Alegranza is the debut from El Guincho (Spaniard Pablo Diaz-Reixa). The nine song, forty-minute release mixes afro-beat, calypso, world music, tropicalia, and freak folk into a delirious blast of music that sounds something like Manu Chao crossed up with Animal Collective. It's very loop-based, with repetitive song-structures that rely on clever transitions and some great vocals.

If you're wondering why it's taken Max Tundra (aka Londoner Ben Jacobs) almost six years to release his third album (a full six years after his sophomore Mastered By Guy At The Exchange), a simply look at his hardware setup might explain things a bit. Instead of using a modern PC or sampler or any of that, he creates his work on a rather antiquated Commodore Amiga 500. Using tracking software that cost a dollar and cobbling everything together in painstaking ways (including, but not limited to, recording drum sounds onto mono cassette recorders twice, then using each of these for the two sides of a stereo mix), the physical act of recording music alone is a serious labor of love for Jacobs.

Although his early work was light and at times even playful, the first album from John Twells (aka Xela) on his own label Type was an incredibly bleak affair. The Dead Sea tried to capture the sounds of a doomed water voyage, and his latest full length certainly doesn't lighten things up. In Bocca Al Lupo is another concept album of sorts, this time guided by the dark corners of the Christian religion. There's a particular focus on religious bells and cavernous spaces, and another visceral illustration by the excellent Matthew Woodson graces the cover.

The former 'Games of Thrones' actress is adapting the popular 2019 children's book by Christian McKay Heidicker into an animated television mini-series.

Meanwhile, Byron locals are not happy with the docusoap as they reportedly paddle out into the ocean to protest the show in addition to launching a petition against the new project.

The actress played Krystle Carrington in the hit drama from 1981 to 1989 admits she did not know the show was coming to an end, and went through terrible withdrawal after leaving the cult TV soap.

Based on the 2004 true-crime docuseries of the same name, the eight-episode series itself focuses on Michael Peterson, who was accused of murdering his wife Kathleen in 2001.

HBO Max CCO Casey Bloys says that executive producers Sarah Jessica Parker and Michael Patrick King did not want to tell a story that is not reflective of the way New York looks today.

Meanwhile, 'The Predator' actor Keegan-Michael Key and 'The Queen's Gambit' star Anya Taylor-Joy have been set to host the final episodes of the NBC show's current season.

The 'WandaVision' actress has secured a lead role, a convicted killer named Candy Montgomery, on a true-story crime drama series co-produced by Nicole Kidman for HBO Max.

The 'Trainwreck' actor is looking forward to the upcoming episode which will see the Tesla boss as a host although some of his co-stars are seemingly not happy with the casting.

In the music video, the 'Girls Trip' actress joins the 'Paranoid' rapper to celebrate her freedom after not getting any love in return from her male love interest.

According to Dick Clark Productions, the 'Whiskey Glasses' singer will not be 'performing, presenting or accepting' any possible trophies at the 2021 music awards show.

The November concerts set to take place at at NRG Park will be curated by the 'Sicko Mode' rapper around the creative theme 'Open Your Eyes To A Whole New Universe'.

The 'It's a Sin' actor reveals one of his Years and Years bandmates is returning as a touring member, only a year after departing the group in March 2020.

The 'Sicko Mode' rapper is expanding his Houston music festival to two days while the 'Cars' hitmaker is set to perform his new album 'Intruder' live at an online concert.

A week after X's family and friends staged a memorial service in New York, the 'Lollipop' hitmaker takes a moment during the Miami, Florida concert to honor the fallen rapper.

The 'On the Floor' hitmaker introduces her mother to fans as she invites the matriarch to join her on stage and perform a duet at the Global Citizen concert in Los Angeles.

The former Little Mix member gets candid about her decision to leave the girl group, claiming she felt 'enormous pressure' for being constantly compared to her bandmates.
