In what already looks like a vintage year for musical comebacks with Bowie; Blur; Pulp; Suede; Fleetwood Mac and My Bloody Valentine already announcing live tours or studio albums, Hoboken’s finest Yo La Tengo are the early returning birds. The veteran trio delivers one of the first great albums of 2013 showing their poppier side in ‘Fade’. Their second single ‘Ohm’ tops the current edition of our loop.

Carry on with this jam-packed month of January; the new entries keep on coming. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds; Pere Ubu; Todd Terje & Lindstrøm are back too. As well as Rober Awards contenders, Laura Mvula or Grimes, who’s just released a brand new Four Tet remix of’Skin’, one of her album’s standout moments.
