"Labor Day Weekend is here which means summer is unofficially over, and at least here in New York, these chilly mornings have already started to signal that the predicted colder, drier fall is on the way. It also means that maybe you have a long weekend so hopefully you're doing something fun. And if you'd like some new music to spin at your BBQ or your beach day, you've come to the right place."
"On top of those, this week's honorable mentions include Joey Bada$$, Westside Gunn, Eiko Ishibashi & Jim O'Rourke, Saul Williams Meets Carlos Niño & Friends, Pinkshift, Slow Crush, Runnner, Anna Tivel, Google Earth (James Riotto & John Vanderslice), Oren Ambarchi / Johan Berthling / Andreas Werliin, The Beaches, Guck, Gulp, Foot Ox, OMB Peezy, Key Glock, D Smoke, Pearly Drops, The Berries, No Apologies, Have Mercy, Prolapse"
Labor Day Weekend arrival signals seasonal change and provides an occasion for new music listening. Eight new albums receive primary attention alongside six Indie Basement selections, including The Beths, The Hives, CMAT, Modern Nature, Ganser, and IDLES' Caught Stealing soundtrack. A lengthy list of honorable mentions spans hip-hop, indie, electronic, metal, jazz, and singer-songwriter releases, highlighting many artists and collaborations. Erykah Badu & The Alchemist's Abi & Alan experienced a delayed release. Essex Honey marks Dev Hynes' first Blood Orange full-length in six years and represents a major label debut following work on film scores and collaborations with Turnstile and Lorde.
