‘Raise No Flag’ is a much-needed uplifting take
 

Their new single ‘Retrieve’ is a chill electronic track with some cozy sounds

Her single ‘Rise’ is a sharp example of ‘less is more’

The guitarist extraordinaire was 65

‘fading colours’ is a masterclass in stripping away all but a song’s essence

‘Vatsala’ is a good bit of production and takes its genre and nostalgia in its stride

The instrumental ‘ULKA’ is a short but impactful imagining of 'night vibes' through an ambient lens

The concise ‘Addicted’ is amusingly astronomical is scope; in reality, it’s a tight three tracks of good texture and smooth writing

‘Just Another Woman (Alright, Alright)’ has shades of folk and old-school progressive rock

The Kolkata band brings in sounds from ambient music to Indian classical on the short but impactful ‘Silhouettes On A Distant Dream’

‘Dimension Jump’ shows how tolerable ambient, heavy progressive music can be when you just get the basics right

Their April-released EP ‘Sunwave’ is two tracks of the pop-rock-prog that some hardcore prog-heads don’t usually like but everyone else loves

'Satire', with a range of influences, represents a step forward for the Mumbai trio
 

‘On Days Like This’, if a bit tame, provides some nice moments

His new single ‘Hey Betty’ has no pretensions about its ease and innocence

Their single ‘Fly’ has more than your average longform meditation session

Featuring Berlin singer-songwriter Kaja, ‘Under My Skin’ has real pop appeal

‘Take’, her second release, has a slightly left-field but glossy touch to it

The band’s stellar new album ‘Hope And Light’ is every bit as exciting, hard-hitting and weird as anything you’ll hear all year

‘Thehra’ is absolutely soaked in heartbreak
