One of this week’s big arrivals, Ezra Collective return with Here Because Of Hope, and the eagle eyed amongst you will notice it's a week ahead of the original release date too. The album traces a musical journey from West Africa through the Caribbean and back to London, exploring how music born from struggle can ultimately become a source of joy.  Jazz remains at its heart, but Afrobeat, reggae, calypso and London sounds all feed into the mix. We're taking it for a spin in the Listening Room on 17th & 23rd (sold out) but we still have plenty of the vinyl available to buy.

Acclaimed British musician, producer and DJ Bonobo returns with The Distance Is Static, bringing together his warm electronics, intricate rhythms and beautifully layered production with a record that represents the culmination of over 25 years in the business. He continues his long standing tradition of inspired collaborations too, featuring Joy Crookes, Ichiko Aoba, Nilüfer Yanya and Arooj Aftab.

A week late in the Weekly Drop but definitely worth another mention is the new compilation from Skyrager,  Coconut Dreams Volume 1. A wonderfully off-centre collection of sun-drenched folk, dreamy soul and astral records from the good folks at Mr Bongo.

Best known as co-founder of Portico Quartet, saxophonist and composer Jack Wyllie releases his first album under his own name.  Eternal Spring occupies a beautiful space between ambient, contemporary classical and jazz, with collaborators including Hania Rani and fellow Portico Quartet members. It's spacious, melodic and quietly uplifting.

What started with an old borrowed conga at a Puerto Rico gig evolved into a seriously infectious Latin dance floor record. A cracking 12" from Nickodemus & percussionist Gabriele Poso, La Conga Vieja blends classic Latin rhythms with modern club vibes and is perfect for DJs moving between tropical and house sounds.

A welcome return for Ann Peebles’ 1975 Memphis soul classic Tellin’ It, back on vinyl for the first time in 50 years and newly remastered from the original untouched tapes. Recorded at Royal Studios in Memphis it catches Peebles just after the success of I Can’t Stand the Rain.

Twenty-plus years on from Silent Alarm, Bloc Party return with their seventh studio album, Anatomy Of A Brief Romance. Buoyed by their biggest year of touring in two decade, it arrives after a huge resurgence for the band, with legendary producer Trevor Horn behind the desk. Musically, it still has the sharp guitars, restless rhythms and urgency of classic Bloc Party.

There’s plenty of good stuff on the slate now that the summer holidays are over.

First Up. Now on Volume 5, Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy’s Balearic Breakfast returns with another brilliantly wide-ranging selection, moving through cosmic soul, tropical psychedelia, jazz, deep house and Afrobeat. As ever, she digs well beyond the obvious, with many tracks appearing on vinyl for the first time.  Click through to see the tracklist.

Please be aware that these albums sell out quickly. PRE-ORDER to secure a copy for you or a loved one (mid November release date)

Leon Bridges joins forces with J Lloyd and Lydia Kitto of Jungle for Happiness Anytime.  Expect a warm mix of soul and funk, with Jungle’s distinctive production touch throughout.

Following the huge success of Romance, Fontaines D.C. return with Dopamine Chamber. Produced by James Ford, it pushes their sound into colder, more electronic territory while retaining the intensity and big melodies of its predecessor.

Four Tet revisit the brilliant Ringer EP.  Originally released in 2008, Ringer is newly remastered by Kieran Hebden and expanded with two additional tracks.

The Ballistic Brothers get the Dub Flex treatment, reworking their ’90s club sound through house, dub, reggae and spiritual jazz on a five-track 12".  Renowned remixer Dominic Dawson has been given free rein over five favourites from their catalogue, pulling apart and reshaping the originals to reveal the different club cultures that always sat at the heart of the Ballistics’ sound.
