Busy week – stupendous new issue in the shops, read all about it here – but before we head off for the weekend, just time to post this week’s office Playlist.

Strap yourselves in for 15 minutes of pulverising drones from Gnod, along with the welcome return of The Black Dog (Spanners, anyone?), Eastern Mediterranean bacchanalia from The Turbans, elegant harpistry from Mary Lattimore and more.
