(Left): Chicago drummer and producer Makaya McCraven spent some serious time getting intimate with Gil Scott-Heron‘s voice while creating his endlessly delightful record We’re New Again, a reimagining of Heron’s final album, I’m New Here. (Right): Southern rock stalwarts Drive-By Truckers get soulfully, brazenly, political on their new offering The Unraveling. (Below): Check out the video for Mexico City-based Electro-Cumbia sibling duo Sotomayor‘s song “Meneate Pa’ Mi” from their third full length album Origenes.
**HIGHLIGHTS**

**Best rebirth of the voice of a spoken word icon: Gil Scott-Heron & Makaya McCraven: We’re New Again - A Reimagining
**Best southern gothic socio-political commentary: Drive-By Truckers: The Unraveling
**Best post-punk grooves since we lost Andy Gill: Arbor Labor Union: New Petal Instants
**Best audio facsimile of sitting around a campfire with your best friends and a flask: Stoll Vaughan: Desires Shape
