2025 Album Reviews Request

Opening this new question for people to request notable albums released this year that they feel merit a review, just to help AllMusic keep track - the final decision will of course be up the editors, whom I'd like to thank in advance for their generally excellent reviews and much-appreciated efforts to keep up!

I hope someone will still find a moment for The Vernon Spring's 'Under a Familiar Sun'.

I hope someone will still find a moment for Sherelle's 'With a Vengeance'. Her Fabric mix was very warmly received on AllMusic.

Sherelle is currently listed as a trending artist on your website, but her April 9 album has still not been reviewed.

A review for this one is up. In case you missed them, there are now reviews available for 'Sincerely,' 'Weirdo' and the new Motorpsycho album too.

I hope someone will still find a moment for Djrum's 'Under Tangled Silence' and DJ Koze's 'Music Can Hear Us'.

Really enjoying that Djrum record - one of the best electronic releases of the year so far. Would be intrigued to read what AllMusic's resident electronic music experts have to say about this one too.

I hope someone will still find a moment for Kali Uchis' 'Sincerely,'. Her previous album was very well received by AllMusic.

I hope someone will still find a moment for David Murray's new album 'Birdly Serenade'. His recent output has been very favorable reviewed at AllMusic.

I hope someone will still find a moment for Kip Moore's 'Solitary Tracks'. HIs previous albums have all been well-received at AllMusic.

Nice that you recognize Horse Meat Disco as trending, but the nicest of course would be if you'd actually review their new 'Boogie from Brazil' compilation. :)

I hope someone will still find a moment for Mark de Clive-Lowe's new album. The previous one was favorably reviewed by AllMusic.

I hope someone will still find a moment for Terrace Martin's 'Albion Files'. His 'Drones' was very well-received on AllMusic in 2021, but all subsequent output has been ignored - this one isn't even listed. He's a major producer (heavily involved in 'To Pimp a Butterfly', for example) and this album features Robert Glasper among many others.

Cool! Just read your new review for this Miki Berenyi album. Thank you!
