Every Friday, 88Nine music director Erin Wolf and Lilliput Records co-owner Tanner Musgrove tell you about the new albums you can\u2019t miss on a new episode of <\/i>On Vinyl<\/u><\/b><\/a>. Check out their top picks and a list of this week\u2019s other releases, and listen to their full conversation using the player on this page or on the 88Nine airwaves at 1 p.m. every Friday.<\/i><\/p>\n We\u2019ve got a study of contrasts among this week\u2019s releases, with two R&B-flavored selections and two synth-y offerings.<\/p>\n If you love a unique voice, you can\u2019t go wrong with the soon-to-be-legend Baby Rose\u2019s fresh take on relationships with an old-soul appeal. Kelela also offers up her chilled-out and slickly produced version of the genre that speaks to the human machine in all of us.<\/p>\n To get all pop-y on you, we\u2019ve got a fresh reissue of the coldwave debut classic from indie fave Black Marble, as well as the maximalist pop sound of Panda Bear and Sonic Boom, who cram as much as they can into the waves they create \u2014 including guest collabs!<\/p>\n Happy New Music Friday!<\/p>\n Baby Rose, <\/b>YEARNALISM<\/u><\/i><\/b><\/a><\/p>\n The deep-souled Atlanta-based crooner drops her third album today, her first since 2023\u2019s Through and Through<\/i>. Right now, Rose feels like an artist on the brink of greater recognition. Her voice is as timeless as the genres she pulls from: soul, gospel, jazz, rock and R&B. She says she grew up listening to Nina Simone, Donny Hathaway and Janis Joplin, and that really shows up in her music.<\/p>\n Rose\u2019s newest batch of songs is a take on dating and nascent relationships in the modern world, and how she feels like we\u2019re losing \u201crecipes\u201d for how to properly yearn for each other. For the YEARNALISM <\/i>vinyl, there will be gold and maroon variations, as well as classic black, compliments of Secretly Canadian Records. You can find these options on the shelves at your fave local shop.<\/p>\n Panda Bear & Sonic Boom, <\/b>A ? of When<\/u><\/i><\/b><\/a><\/p>\n On their newest collaborative album, the avant-electro-pop project duo of Panda Bear (Noah Lennox) and Sonic Boom (Peter Kember) run with their love of playful experimentation and Beach Boys-esque vibes. It feels like it\u2019s been an extra-long wait for a new record from them, but somehow it\u2019s only been since 2022\u2019s Reset<\/i>.<\/p>\n There are some fun contributions on this one, including harpist Mary Lattimore, British multi-instrumentalist Daniel O\u2019Sullivan, \u201cSteel Witch\u201d Zena Kay on pedal-steel guitar and even a mariachi band from Mexico City. Domino Records is issuing some cool options, all with a 3D embossed sleeve: an orange biovinyl version via the Domino Mart, as well as a pink biovinyl version and a standard black biovinyl available at any record shop near you.<\/p>\nBest new albums out July 10<\/h3>\n
