the legend that is Leonard Cohen releases a new album today, and despite his age (he’s a mighty 77 years old) this album does not remotely disappoint. it’s thoughtful, melodic, slow of pace and utterly beautiful. his voice is as good as it has ever been, the arrangements complement the songwriting entirely and i am completely hooked, playing it through now four times since last night. below is Darkness, the fourth track from the album, but you can stream the whole of the album on the Guardian’s website here

Biophilia is the new album from Björk, due for release in three days time (October 10th), but it can be heard right now by connecting to the NPR Music site. as well as a standard CD release, it will also be released in the form of a series of apps. Biophilia will be the world’s first “app album” made in collaboration with Apple. in Björk’s own words it’s been described as a multimedia collection, “encompassing music, apps, internet, installations, and live shows“
