Before the publication of his Hungarian Dances in their original version for piano four hands, Johannes Brahms was hardly known to the educated middle classes, but the works ensured that the composer became a household name. In their subsequent orchestral versions, the Dances entered the repertoire of prestigious concert orchestras and, after music had become technically reproducible, went on to become even more massively popular. On this CD, BR-KLASSIK presents Brahms' Hungarian Dances Nos. 1–10 in their orchestral versions, in a studio production with the Munich Radio Orchestra under its former chief conductor Roberto Abbado.

2nd album from the Icelandic indie pop songwriter, featuring a host of high calibre guests including Nanna (Of Monsters and Men), Damon Albarn (Blur) and School of X. Amidst a collection of lush, electronic earworms, Kaktus has penned an honest account of his recovery from a sudden functional neurological disorder (FND), which required him to relearn the use of his motor functions while fulfilling his duties as a new father. ‘Lobster Coda’ contains dreamy, glitchy synth-pop and melancholic atmosphere created by layers of atmospheric keys, drums and groovy funk bass. Kaktus describes his journey after a stress-induced non-seizure that disrupted his brain's communication with the rest of his body, causing him to lose control of his legs and arms and experience involuntary facial twitching. He subsequently lost control of his legs and arms, resulting in facial twitching.

The Norwegian artist has built a huge global audience, merging folk, electronic, and pop aspects to thrilling effect. Released June 2024, her fourth studio album takes AURORA far from her home, only to return once more and find it all over again.

Gidon Kremer’s commitment to the music of our own time and the exploration of some of the lesser-known byways of the past is justly famous. Here, alongside his Kremerata Baltica colleagues, he turns his attention to three substantial works for strings by the twentieth-century Czech composer Viktor Kalabis. This is an album guaranteed to win new friends for the music.

You'll forgive Propagandhi for their lack of humor on At Peace. A lot has happened since their last album, 2017's Victory Lap, and to say that none of it has been good would still be a cop out. Leftists being mortified is nothing new, but for those who laid bare their beliefs for decades only to watch people twist them into disastrous neoliberal policies and miscues, simply being alive is rough. Chris Hannah, the longtime voice of the band, says it best: "Speaking for myself, this record might be a snapshot of me deciding whether I'm going to live out the rest of my life as Eckhart Tolle or … Ted Kaczynski."

Angus Stone is a bearded singer-songwriter from Australia who records as Dope Lemon. Like his four previous albums, Golden Wolf blends laid-back psychedelic soul with indie rock in a way that suggests that a bit of the Tame Impala got into every Australian band since. The album is all about choices which I can relate to when recently unable to choose between a punnet of strawberries or a punnet of raspberries at Marks & Spencer.

Esther Rose was on a long solo drive when she started writing the opening title track of "Want", her stunning fifth album. At first, the words seemed almost like a joke, something to keep herself amused as the miles passed. “I want a puppy, but I don't want a mess. I want to know where I’m going without GPS,” she sang from behind the wheel. Soon, the idea snowballed into a list of desires that spanned existential, spiritual, and mundane; romantic to platonic to familial; at once wildly ambitious yet piercingly relatable; all set to a catchy melody that blends her pop instincts with country storytelling and the raw immediacy of a basement punk show. In other words, she was on her way to another classic Esther Rose song.

It's been just over a decade since Maddie (Font) and Tae (Kerr) blasted into Nashville with their first single, "Girl In a Country Song," a perfectly timed clapback against the bro-country era. Such a big, statement-making number could've overshadowed everything else they've done and rendered them one-hit wonders. But the duo have continued to grow and experiment, playing with jazzy neo-soul and thoughtful ballads on 2020's The Way It Feels, while preserving the confidence and catchiness of their debut—even as they understand their audience doesn't want them to reinvent too much.
