Playlist 299 - Feb 18 2014

New music from A Winged Victory For The Sullen this week (pictured), a characteristically serene and gorgeous slow-build with strings, boding well for their new album.

Something beautiful too from Golden Retriever, a Portland duo who make a kind of minimalist electronica with modular synths. Brilliant.

Also new material from Polar Bear, bringing free jazz and some other stuff into pop music. And Brace/Choir making very tasty drone pop.

Also room for old faves Band of Clouds, Rebecca Collins and The Altered Hours, all playing live in Ireland soon.

And new faves The New Mendicants, Jacques Caramac and Kiran Leonard keeping the world safe for jangle, glam and prog, respectively.

More on these pages as ever.
