Midnight Zone (Original Soundtrack)

Midnight Zone (Original Soundtrack)

Laurel Halo
On the soundtrack for a film that follows a lighthouse lens deep into the ocean, the producer’s lightless, airless drones capture the vertiginous feeling of endless freefall.
Hard Hearted Woman

Hard Hearted Woman

Ora Cogan
The Canadian songwriter draws from gothic Americana, psychedelic folk, and ghostly bluegrass on an album of hypnotic ballads that land like incantations.
Music in Continuous Motion

Music in Continuous Motion

Bill Orcutt
Building on the approach of 2022’s Music for Four Guitars, the experimental guitarist spins time-bending drones from minimalist, melodic phrases.
Kyriemo Irving

Kyriemo Irving

Reemo
Full of hungry day-in-the-life raps and light on gimmicks, the Philly drill rapper’s new mixtape makes a strong statement in an impossibly complicated scene.
I Could Live in Hope

I Could Live in Hope

Low
Each Sunday, Pitchfork takes an in-depth look at a significant album from the past, and any record not in our archives is eligible. Today, we revisit the epiphanic debut album from the Duluth slowcore band whose fragile, insistent sound was entirely its own from the beginning.

    Oneohtrix Point Never
    Best New Album
    Drawing on a cache of commercial sample CDs, Daniel Lopatin assembles an impossibly dense and transportive electronic album that takes impermanence as its inspiration.
  • Addison

    Addison Rae
    The girlypop album of summer warrants comparison to Lana, Madonna, and most of all, Britney. Are we ready for Addison?

    Rosalía
    Best New Album
    The Spanish singer’s fourth record is a heartfelt offering of avant-garde classical pop that roars through genre, romance, and religion.
  • Stardust

    Danny Brown
    Working with a new vanguard of outsider electronic artists, the Detroit rapper lets his freak flag fry. The results are shaky but full of heart.
  • West End Girl

    West End Girl

    Lily Allen
    With an album that doubles as an insider’s account of a tabloid divorce, the singer finds a new evolution of her signature style: Lightness isn’t a foil for irony, but a vehicle for hurt.
  • Lil Herb

    Lil Herb

    G Herbo
    Stepping into his teenage shoes for a loose concept album, the Chicago icon reflects on the original era of drill with the clarity of a scene veteran.
  • Repulsor

    Repulsor

    Shlohmo
    The L.A. beatmaker turns aggressive on his fourth album—dialing up the distortion, flooding his beats with overdriven synths, and pushing anxious moods into the red.
