Jenny Hval: Classic Objects [4AD]
Classic Objects is a sparkling art pop album that’s light and unusually direct. “American Coffee” teems with vivid autobiographical detail, and Jenny Hval reaches toward infinite expanses with “Jupiter” and “Cemetery of Splendour.” Read Allison Hussey’s review of Classic Objects.

Jeremiah Chiu & Marta Sofia Honer: Recordings From the Åland Islands [International Anthem]
Marta Sofia Honer and Jeremiah Chiu developed their first collaborative album out of sylvan circumstances, drawing inspiration from the lush forest environments of islands in the Baltic sea for calm, dreamy compositions. A 2019 performance at a 14th century church on one of the islands gave the pair the building blocks for Recordings From the Åland Islands. With layers of viola, organs (pump and pipe), piano, vocals, synthesizers, and field recordings from the islands, songs like “Snåcko” and “By Foot by Sea” overflow with gentle energy.
