  • Beating Those Winter Blues: January 2016 New Albums Reviewed
    Beating Those Winter Blues: January 2016 New Albums Reviewed Music | Bittles’ Magazine: The music column from the end of the world The cold winter evenings that make up the month of January can be alienating and depressing at best. Yet, for music fans at least, there are reasons for cheer. Over the past few years January has heralded the release of some fantastic LPs. By JOHN BITTLES Early indications are that 2016 will be no different, with new albums by the likes of David Bowie, Tricky, Alex Smoke, Woodleigh Research Facility, and Federica Albanese perfectly illustrating how music is best listened to when the world outside is cold and dark. And if that isn’t enough to raise a smile we also include a fab house compilation aural gems from the R&S offshoot Meda Fury, a lush five CD box-set of classic shoegaze, the fractured techno textures of Skee Mask, the blissful stillness of Dakota Suite & Emanuele Errante and much more. So, snuggle up next to a loved one, a friend, an acquaintance, or a beloved cuddly toy and let us begin… A fitting end to a distinguished career, Blackstar, David Bowie’s 25th studio album, was released on the star’s birthday, just days before he died. At times strange and experimental, the record’s seven tracks touch on elements of krautrock, electronica, pop, jazz and more. The title track opens the album in majestic style, constantly shifting and changing throughout its ten minute duration. Taking in acid bleeps one minute, art rock introspection the next, the track’s grand scope and pure ambition mark it as belonging amongst David Bowie’s greatest work.
