Adjagas
Lihkulas (Ever Redcords EVER135)
The second single from Norwegian duo Adjagas' acclaimed debut album Lihkulas is a great example of the act's entrancing sound which combines the traditional tribal chant vocal style of northern Scandinavia's indigenous Sapmi people with crisp string-based melodies. Reminiscent of Sigur Ros, Adjagas are unlikely to set DJs' pulses racing, outside a few specialist shows, but they are a unique force.
The Beep Seals
Tell Your Friends (Kings And Creatures KNC 3001)
This is a perfectly formed debut from The Beep Seals, featuring refugees from Jim Noir's touring band and the much missed Alfie. With that sort of personnel, you get pretty much what you would expect - a very English slice of top-notch psychedelic whimsy which sounds instantly likeable.
