Daily Drops · Vol.078每日唱片 · Vol.078
A record fifteen years in a drawer, a band that confiscated its own fuzz pedals, and an octogenarian who sat down with strangers half his age 八張新碟沒一張準時到場:有人借唐詩當標題,有人把看家本領鎖進櫃子,有人八十多歲還在學新把戲

This Nashville trio works without a center: Lou Turner, Trevor Nikrant, and Joe Kenkel pass the microphone and the instruments around as if no single voice deserved to carry the loneliness alone. Any River began as jams taped at home and was finished, almost reluctantly, in a Louisville studio with Jim Marlowe, which is why it keeps its frayed edges — the takes breathe rather than gleam. Stereogum named it Album of the Week, and Bonnie "Prince" Billy called it a sweet alignment of cooperative forces, which is exactly the right register: this is a record that declines to prove anything, and is the better for declining. Of everything out today, it's the one I'd cue first. 納許維爾三人組,Lou Turner、Trevor Nikrant、Joe Kenkel,三個人輪流主唱、互換樂器,沒有固定的核心。這種結構本身就是一種態度:沒有人需要表演孤獨。專輯從家裡錄的即興 jam 起步,最後才進路易斯維爾的錄音室由 Jim Marlowe 收尾——所以你能聽見那種沒被磨平的毛邊,鬆弛、溫的。Stereogum 把它選為當週專輯,Bonnie 'Prince' Billy 形容這是「一次甜美的力量對齊,合作而非各自為政」。它不急著證明什麼,而這恰恰是它最迷人的地方。今天我最想先按下播放鍵的,就是它。

珀斯樂團的第十一張。這次他們給自己上了三道枷鎖:不許用 fuzz 失真踏板、不許寫抒情慢歌、「不許整 Pink Floyd 那一套」。一支以迷幻噪音立身的樂團,親手沒收了自己的看家本領,結果反而清醒了。他們管這聲音叫「在酒館裡的哥德」——引的是 The Church、Magazine、Sisters of Mercy 那一脈冷峻的後龐克與新浪潮。戒掉本能之後,剩下的是骨架:乾淨、緊實、好看。先行單曲 "Two Hands"、"Through the Heather" 已經把方向說清楚了。
Graham Coxon — Castle Park

Blur 的吉他手 Graham Coxon,早在 2011 年就和 Ben Hillier 一起把這張錄完了,趁的是《A+E》前後那段空檔。然後 Blur 復出,專輯被塞進抽屜,一擱就是十五年。現在它出土,聽起來既不像舊貨,也不像刻意的懷舊——更像一封寄丟了很久、地址卻還準的信。Coxon 寫旋律的手從沒生疏過,"Billy Says" 一開聲你就信了。十五年的灰塵沒讓它變舊,反而證明瞭好東西沒有保存期限。NME、MOJO 都給了顯眼的版面。
Gary Bartz & Your Brother's Keeper — Where Rivers Meet
- Genre類型
- Spiritual Jazz / UK Jazz
- Label廠牌

Gary Bartz, well into his eighties — a man who shared stages with Miles Davis, Charles Mingus, and Art Blakey — has gone and sat down inside a circle of young Londoners. Your Brother's Keeper is the collective assembled by the drummer Jake Long, with Chelsea Carmichael and Al MacSween among its ranks, and the album grew entirely out of group improvisation, nobody conducting anyone. Two generations and an ocean apart, and still the rivers meet; the title earns itself. Released for Brownswood's twentieth anniversary, it carries real weight, and the elder statesman has come not to sermonize but to play — which is its own form of respect. 八十多歲的 Gary Bartz——和 Miles Davis、Charles Mingus、Art Blakey 都同過臺的靈魂薩克斯手——這回坐進了一群倫敦年輕人中間。Your Brother's Keeper 是鼓手 Jake Long 召集的集體,成員包括 Chelsea Carmichael、Al MacSween 等新一代倫敦爵士骨幹。整張專輯從集體即興裡長出來,沒有誰在單方面指揮誰。隔著兩代人,隔著一片大西洋,「河」在這裡匯了——專輯名取得不虛。這是 Brownswood 二十週年的禮物,分量很足。marlbank 給了四顆星。

The trumpeter's second record, following 2024's Evergreen, takes its name from a street in Cleveland — the long route from Seattle to New York, and a Japanese American's recurring arithmetic about where, exactly, home sits. Cut last autumn at The Bunker in Brooklyn with Chris McCarthy on piano and Rhodes, Masami Kuroki on guitar, and Takafumi Nikaido on congas, the writing is fine-grained and unhurried, a bellflower opening at dusk and holding its light. Naming homesickness after a street rather than scoring it as an elegy is the more restrained choice, and the more sophisticated one. 小號手 Jun Iida 的第二張,接續 2024 年的 Evergreen。專輯名取自克里夫蘭的一條街,背後是他從西雅圖遷往紐約的那條路,和一個日裔美國人對「家在哪裡」的反覆掂量。2025 年秋天錄於布魯克林的 The Bunker,搭檔 Chris McCarthy(鋼琴/Rhodes)、黑木真美(吉他)、二階堂天文(康加)。織體很細,不喧嘩,像黃昏才開的桔梗,安靜地把光收住。把鄉愁寫成一個街名,比寫成一首輓歌要剋制得多,也高級得多。
君島大空(Ohzora Kimishima) — 花落知多少
- Genre類型
- Experimental Art-Pop / Alt Singer-Songwriter
- Label廠牌

君島大空已經約三年沒出全長了(上一張是 2023 年的《no public sounds》)。他的聲音一向像被砂紙輕輕磨過——吉他、人聲、電子噪音都貼得很近,近到有點不安,那種欲言又止的句法是他的簽名。專輯名借了孟浩然《春曉》裡的「花落知多少」,落花的題旨配他這種聲音剛剛好。先行曲 "Drowsy" 已經以數位單曲放出,專輯還配著 6 月 28 日起的六場個人巡演。今天唯一一張非英語作品,也是我私心最想推給願意慢下來的人的一張。
Alban Gerhardt / WDR SO Köln / Andrew Manze — Elgar & Dvořák: Cello Concertos
- Genre類型
- Classical / Romantic Cello Concerto
- Label廠牌
- Hyperion
- Format介質
- CD / Hi-Res / Streaming
- Released發行
- 2026-06-19
把浪漫派大提琴協奏曲的兩座高峰擺進同一張——Elgar 的餘暉,與 Dvořák 的鄉愁。資深德國大提琴家 Alban Gerhardt 拉了一輩子核心曲目,手穩,不耍花腔;Andrew Manze 指揮科隆 WDR 交響樂團,分寸拿得正。這種「正面強攻」的錄音不靠噱頭,靠的是說服力。Elgar 寫的是道別,Dvořák 寫的是想家,兩首併在一起,幾乎是一整段人生的兩端。今天的古典定盤,沒有懸念。
Ola Gjeilo — ordinary moments
- Genre類型
- Neoclassical / Solo Piano / Ambient
- Label廠牌
- Decca
- Format介質
- Streaming / Digital
- Released發行
- 2026-06-19
挪威作曲家、鋼琴家 Ola Gjeilo 以合唱寫作最為人知,這回他收起人聲,只留十二首獨奏鋼琴小品,自陳要「為日常時刻配樂」。老實說,這種自我定位很容易滑進背景音樂的陷阱,他沒全躲開,但好在沒把旋律寫空。當 Ambient 聽,它是誠實的、溫的;當作品聽,它點到為止,不強求你記住。適合放在今天的最後一張——關燈之前,讓琴聲替你把白天收個尾。
