As part of your many, many perks for becoming a Quietus subscriber, we’re compiling a specially-curated, playlist for our readers every month.

Across more than five hours of music, you’ll find fresh new bangers from Wu-Lu and Hercules & Love Affair, the glorious returns of Suede and Kendrick Lamar, top-notch ragers from Special Interest and Black Midi, the best of the world’s experimental fringes, plus the picks of our jazz, metal, New Weird Britain, Slovenian, rum music and dance columns, and more!

On top of all that, don’t forget that as a subscriber you also get links to the extra special Albums Of The Year playlist, plus our regular specially curated ‘Organic Intelligence’ playlists, exploring the weirdest and wonderfullest musical niches, from Latvian Cosmic Pop to French 2-Step!

In order to listen to the playlists, you’ll need the link – you can become a Quietus Low Culture or Sound & Vision tier subscriber here.
