Few musicians collapse the boundaries of ‘pop’ and ‘high’ art like Jon Hopkins, who is as comfortable working on ambient sound collages as he is producing tracks for Coldplay, never sacrificing his commitment to textured and emotive electronica.

Even on the darkest days, we can find radiant pockets of space in our minds. ‘First Light’, the fourth studio album from Sigur Rós frontman Jónsi, is studded with the momentary glimpses of bliss — it’s a meditative antidote to grey recesses and modern malaise.

On first listen, it feels like there’s a disconnect between the title of the new Illuminati Hotties record and the music contained within. ‘Power’ throws up a number of suggested meanings: all-consuming sound, empowerment, heaviness. But is that what we expect from Sarah Tudzin’s melody-led indie-rock? Certainly not in a standard way.

Wunderhorse are a band defined by second chances. After the premature demise of punk outfit Dead Pretties in 2017, Jakob Slater retired from music altogether to work as a surf instructor in Cornwall. Over the years the creative itch would gradually return, rekindling his love as his focus shifted from fury to personal reflection in the form of his Wunderhorse project.
