*Max Richter - Three Worlds - Music from Woolf works"

 How much tenderness can the world hold and be such a melancholic place at the same time? Somber, beautiful, delicate and nostalgic. The music remains visionary, it evokes distant memories and creates new ones. Max Richter manages to compose instrumental classical pieces that are perfect soundtracks for daydreaming and sonic escapism. These pieces were composed for a ballet inspired by Virginia Woolf's 3 novels, Mrs.Dalloway, Orlando and The Waves.

"The beauty of the world, which is so soon to perish, has two edges, one of laughter, one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder."

Virginia Woolf

*Aesop Rock - Labor days*

  Beautiful and abstract poetry from MC Aesop Rock in an assorted collection of complex and melodic beats. Stories are told and magnified by the spotless MC'S style of delivery, especially in themes like "No Regrets", a story about Lucy, an artist that embodies the spirit of individuality of doing what you really want and love and the anthem 9-5 er's about work and aspirations. It shapes and expands the border of hip-hop, an essential work of astract and conscious hip-hop. 

*Tiago Guillul - V*

  Indie pop by Tiago Guillul. Recorded in a studio and with guests like Rui Reininho, Tiago Guillul moves from his lo-fi days to a well produced and clean cut album. "A Febre em 1993" is a really adorable and catchy song that is one of the highlights of this album, using dancing and funky samples with some playful arrangements. "Nabucodonosor" named after one of the kings in the bible, is a really jangley song with collaborations from Rui Reininho in the vocals. Released by Florcaveira, this album has some religious inspired lyrics and most songs were built upon evangelical songs from all over the world, but that isn't exactly a surprise since it's Tiago Guillul. Overall, a candy bomb of an album of enjoyable and clever indie pop. 

*Roberta Kelly - Trouble maker*

 Very groovy and danceable hit Trouble-Maker by singer Roberta Kelly. The track was written and produced by Giorgio Moroder and Pete Belotte. It reached and gained enormous popularity when it was released in 1976. The second song is The Family, a more mellow disco sound with some catchy and funky bass lines and harmonious backup instrumentals. Roberta Kelly also did backup vocals for Thelma Houston and Donna Summer.
