British producer Mark Barrott has lived several lives, from his breakbeat roots through a series of landmark Balearic records including 2016’s Sketches From an Island 2. His latest, the orchestral work Everything Changes, Nothing Ends, is dedicated to his late partner, Sara Kult-Smith, following her death last year. In press materials, he called the album a “story of two lives coming together through a chance meeting on an aeroplane and spending the next 20-plus years together via the craziness of Berlin in the late ’90s to Northern Italy, South America, and, finally, the tranquility of rural Ibiza. The story of how life can change and be snatched away in the blink of an eye.” But, he added, “this is not a sad story. It’s a story of joy, love, grief and gratitude for what was.”

Jaeychino: Artwork III [PRNLDOCC]
It would take sheer brute strength to stop Jaeychino. Four projects deep in 2024 alone, the Washington, D.C., rapper’s Artwork III collects 17 songs in a brisk 29 minutes. Jaeychino continues to favor digitized, lightweight beats that could be ripped straight from a Yeule or Frou Frou record, only this time he talks about drama in his circles and how he’s been spending his life these past few months. Featured on the project are ST6 JodyBoof, Broadway Rx, SlimeGoon9, and Snow Strippers.
