Julia Holter’s last year full-length debut ‘Tragedy’ was left bubbling under our Top 50 best albums of the year, but on the strength of her new song, ‘Marienbad’, anticipating sophomore work ‘Ekstasis’; she’s going to be one of the most talked about names of 2012. For starters she’s the loop’s topper on a week that has seen strong entries by Burial and Howler , back to back with free downloads by A$ap Rocky , Azealia Banks with Machinedrum and Santigold’s much anticipated return.
