2026.02 - Last month I mostly listened to...

February had several cool releases, some of them I was expecting and few that came out of nowhere.

One of the cool new finds was Magnify the Sound’s album Searching for a quiet place, which I found very pleasing to listen. Lovely!
Another new one was Berlin based Kiwi duo Earth Tongue and their album Dungeon Vision, which gives me Ty Segall/Fuzz crossed with King Gizz vibes. Nice!

Anyway, here’s the list and take a listen to the playlists at the end, to hear for yourself.
