# Editor’s Choice 5
Welcome to **Editor's Choice**: our weekly playlist of what's special to
our ears. Every day, loads of music passes through us; we consume it
like locusts and it in turn consumes us. The goal of a society is
Togetherness. Join in our consumption: Together, we share a listening
experience beyond the ivory pale.
***Walter (Community Manager / Editor)***
**The Kings Of Dub Rock -- Kinder der Sonne**
Picking up some German now and then won't do you wrong. **Jacques
Palminger **and his Kings of Dub Rock bring lessons in dub & humor
all the way from Hamburg city!
**Two Fingers -- 101 South**
Whenever I talk **Amon Tobin** amongst friends, the conversation usually
ends with the words "visually stunning, but musically too complex to
listen to at home". While I'm of the opinion that this is a bollocks
statement, I'd like to offer them the palm branch from here on. Amon
Tobin is back as **Two Fingers** with a new album on October 1. Here's a
first impression to get rid of musical resentments.

***Daniel (Editor)***
**Bestial Mouths -- Hollowed**
Off an upcoming live cassette. Powerful and soul-crushing, sheer tribal
bliss that travels through you like heavy smoke. Black voice that made
me.
**Teengirl Fantasy -- EFX feat. Kelela**
I can't believe I'm missing **Swans** this weekend. I want to get
murdered, but tracks like this make it all better. I heard this and said
'Damn.'
///
***Moritz (Duty Editor Online)***
**(((S))) -- Alive/Die**
Seriously cant get enough of (((S))) -- and it's so refreshing that you
can't find any news about this band through Google...
**Dum Dum Girls -- Lord Knows**
My beloved Girls got a new EP coming out later this year called *End Of
Daze*; here's an appetizer from it.
///
***Michael (Duty Editor Print)***
**Crime & The City Solution -- On Every Train (Grain Will Bear
Grain)**
Australian post-punk outfit Crime & the City Solution just announced
a world tour, their first shows since two decades. There's also a
compilation set for release on**Mute**. *Introduction To... Crime &
the City Solution / A History Of Crime -- Berlin 1987* focuses maily on
tracks from C&TCS's 1980s Berlin era. Sensation for a few of us!
**Hot Chip -- Look At Where We Are (Four Tet Remix)**
I'm not the biggest fan of Alexis Taylor's fragile helium voice but
whatever track treated by Kieran Hebdan moves onto my playlist.
///
***A.J. Samuels (Editor)***
**Good Teeth -- Ghikas & Walshe**
Former *Wire* cover woman **Jennifer Walshe** teams up with composer
Panos Ghikas of British pop surrealists **The Chap** to improvise around
manipulated vocal samples and live vocal weirdness. Sounds you would
usually ignore, explored.
**Camera -- Ausland**
Proto-krautrockers **Camera** have released their first LP on **Bureau
B**, a fitting home for the Berlin-based trio. Their sound is somewhat
derivative, but Michael Drummer's choice of a stand tom instead of a
bass drum is a stroke of genius---a true innovation to the Klaus
Dinger-like apache rhythms that drive this band. IMO, Camera are best
heard live---preferably in one of Berlin's hally Ubahn passageways
they're known to spontaneously rock.

***Louise (Interning Editor)***
**Rick Ross -- 911**
Yes, the album was a disappointment, with Rozay straying from what he
does best: gilded trap pantomime. This then was a standout by virtue of
the fact that it sounds like it could've come from the (far
better) *Rich Forever* mixtape or *Teflon Don*. URRGGH!
**Rustie feat. AlunaGeorge -- After Light** (*Again? -- Ed.*)
Aluna Francis brings some r'n'b hyper-femininity to Rustie's swollen,
high tensile Ableton prog. Of course it works, are you crazy?
