Momoko Gill – Momoko [Strut Records]

Momoko Gill made quite a splash in 2025. She appeared alongside electronic producer Matthew Halsall on the superb album “Clay”. Prior to that she made a name for herself within the underground UK Jazz scene. She would go on to perform with acclaimed Saxophonist Alabaster Deplume. Gill builds on her momentum with an astounding self-titled debut. A self taught drummer, producer and songwriter, Gill’s debut is a passage of sublime heavenly goodness woven by electronics and Jazz stylings. On “No Others”, Momoko’s vocals glide over a subtle yet funky bass groove and a high hat rhythm. “Heavy” is another beauty serenaded by distinct guitar and flute melodies. “Ineffably”, fueled by gorgeous vocal arrangements is a modal jazz gem. Gill takes the tune over the top by caressing a hauntingly beautiful piano melody. Without a doubt this belongs in your collection. It definitely will be one of the best releases of 2026.

The Daltonists – Gradient [Most Least]

“Gradient” is the new album from Daltonists. The Polish trio experiments with a mixture of genres fusion to dub recordings. The opening track “California Plum Color” is full of vibrant synths courtesy of Roman Wroblewski. Jacek Rezner drives the tune with his propulsive drumming and sets the tone for everyone to join in. “Gradient 1” pops with Afro-beat rhythms and wayward synth textures. “Oolong Color” is a progressive dub tune with meditative bass grooves. The band showcases their diversity and delivers an engaging release that should be a springboard to a wider audience.

Luna Horns – Afro Space Hotel [Saftig Records]

Oslo based quintet Luna Horns showcase their brand of cosmic jazz on their debut, “Afro Space Hotel”. Inspired by the early recordings of Sun Ra, the quintet leans into the celestial sound while incorporating the soundscapes of the Norwegian countryside. The title track is filled with Middle Eastern rhythms. Alto saxophonist and flautist Morten Bjorbaek Moller takes us on a meditative journey of modal rhythms. Tim Lowerson’s warm soprano solos are a delight as well. The aptly titled “The Red Phoenix Returns” simmers with the help of a funky bass groove courtesy of Gard Langerud. “Santa Calrine” demonstrates the band’s ability to swing in a traditional bebop setting. Trombonist Ulf Moen Denneche’s flurries add another dynamic. Overall a promising debut that certainly warrants your attention.

Oliver Night – Between The Lines [Tru Thoughts Recordings]

Broken beat, or bruk became an underground phenomenon in the late nineties through the early 2000s. By 2007 it drifted into the shadows without receiving the shine it deserved. Fast forward to the present, it’s clear that broken beat is back. DJ/Producer/Vocalist Oliver Night is one of the voices leading the resurgence. Night has released a number of singles on the premier broken beat label CoOp in recent years. “Between The Lines”, his debut on Tru Thoughts, is poised to expose him and the genre to a wider audience. The album spits fire right out the box with “Undefeated”. West London producer Goldbar lays down ear popping beats along with Phoebe who co-wrote the tune with Night. DJ/Producer Megatronic lends her vocals to two tracks here, “It’s Alright” and “We Are Love”. Both tunes bring the heat. “Friends” is a marvellous Afro-house tune with euphoric chords and the honey vocals of Kaya Fyah. “The City” finds Trumpeter Jay Phelps melodic phrasings aligned with breezy vocal harmonies. This album bangs from beginning to end and you’ll find it difficult not to dance. In addition, there’s an instrumental version for each track listed here. What pushes this album over the top is that it’s more than just a string of heavy beats. Night has pushed the boundaries of his compositions in multiple directions. A sure fire winner.

Ethel Lindsey – Pretty Close [Favorite Recordings]

“Pretty Close”, the debut from Ethel Lindsey is steeped in 80s soul and pop rhythms. “Together Again” is RnB flavored Pop with lush grooves and superbly sung by Lindsey. “Love Paved The Way” is a warm ballad driven by tight vocal and horn arrangements. The song will transport you to a slow dance at the club with your honey towards the end of the night. “Make You Mine” is a down-tempo stroll on the boardwalk on a warm Summer night. Written and produced by Lindsey, this is a delightful trip to a bygone era.
