Running a bit late on this one, but there’s no lack of great albums from February 2026! Just wait until we look back on March 2026… now THAT was a doozy!

Caterina Barbieri & Bendik Giske – At Source [Light-Years]
Spectral pools in deep space glitter from afar, plumes of dust gracefully erupt from extra dimensions, tearing touches of reality in a realm no eyes can see.

Daniel Bachman – Revolutions [Self-Released]
A buzzsaw taken to the Earth to examine the rings of detritus layers humans left in their time on the planet.

Elori Saxl & Henry Solomon – Seeing Is Forgetting [True Panther]
The thin layer of reality that exists between sleeping and waking, pulled in different directions and enveloped in warmth and all-encompassing softness.

Fabiano Do Nascimento & Vittor Santos Orquestra – Vila [Far Out]
The last breath of a Spring weekend, the sunset casting a spectral glow through an apartment’s windows to attempt to ward off Sunday Scaries.

GENA – The Pleasure Is Yours [Stones Throw]
A fur coat strewn upon a plush carpet floor, orange rind melding with melted glass, an old box tv playing game show reruns, the curtains to the balcony blow open a touch to reveal a sparkling cityscape in its dormant state. The phone is off the hook.

Gorillaz – The Mountain [Kong]
Reading up a dusty pop-up book, a tale about your past lives coming to greet you in the current time and space.

Isabel Pine – Fables [kranky]
Pure runoff from a glacier trickles downstream, a bead of light pulsating along its current.

kiss facility – KHANZA [ambient tweets]
Ambiguous reflections on polished silver in humid, thick dusk air, stretching across a curved ceiling.

Mandy, Indiana – URGH [Sacred Bones]
A rave in a falling elevator in a skyscraper that reaches into the lower atmosphere.

Placid Angles – Canada [Oath Creations]
Cliff diving videos that take place in flooded metropolises. POV shots of hurtling down the side of a skyscraper into a crystal blue pool with mineral-dissolved infrastructure glimmering below.
