Unwind yourself: This week at South
Melody’s Echo Chamber returns with Unclouded, a lush, life-affirming leap forward in her psychedelic pop world, featuring contributions from Sven Wunder, Josefin Runsteen, members of Dina Ögon, Malcolm Catto, Reine Fiske and Leon Michels; available as a limited Dinked Edition on light rose and mint splatter vinyl with an A2 poster and numbered sleeve. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’ Live God captures the transcendent power of The Wild God Tour across 18 expansive performances, presented as a double LP in a premium tip-on gatefold with spot-UV gloss and printed inners. Khruangbin revisit their debut with The Universe Smiles Upon You ii, re-recorded a decade later in the same Texas barn for a warm, intimate and quietly transformative reimagining, available on white vinyl. The Happy Mondays' The Factory Singles celebrates 40 years of one of Britain’s era-defining bands with a remastered 2LP set on yellow and magenta coloured vinyl, collecting their pivotal 1985-1992 singles and classic remixes from Paul Oakenfold, Andrew Weatherall and Terry Farley. Dead Kennedys’ iconic single Nazi Punks Fuck Off resurfaces as a reminder of their raw, fearless anti-fascist fury. Marva Whitney’s 1969 classic It’s My Thing returns, backed by the JB’s and produced by James Brown, a fierce and foundational statement from one of funk’s most powerful voices. Roy Ayers’ Change Up the Groove returns on 180g vinyl, showcasing his signature vibraphone-led jazz-funk at its sleek, soulful peak. Featuring classics like The Boogie Back, sampled by NWA, 2Pac and De La Soul, it’s a masterclass in warm, irresistible groove. Faust IV arrives on limited clear vinyl, a paradoxical masterpiece born from chaotic sessions at The Manor that blends beauty, humour, abrasion and proto-motorik invention, while its predecessor So Far returns on limited blue vinyl, capturing the band’s evolution from radical fragmentation into warped yet irresistible forms, each record a reminder of Faust’s singular ability to bend songcraft into strange, brilliant new shapes.
