We’ve posted our best-sellers from a snowy Valentine’s Day week. ARLO PARKS held on for her second week at the top of Sonic Boom’s charts. Collapsed In Sunbeams is the hit record of the season! For the uninitiated, Arlo is a new singer-songwriter out of the UK who might have dropped 2021’s record of the year in January! Get familiar!

Also this week sees the return of STRFKR to our charts at number eight. Their latest is Ambient 1. As you might have guessed from the Eno homage title, this is a pretty chill affair. Expect lush electronic atmospheres and soft synthscapes across this unexpected excursion from the usually energized group.

And in local music action, the Dusty / Medium Weekend split stays in the charts for another week, and down at number nine we’ve got THE DIP. The dip is a Seattle soul ensemble dealing in snappy horn-laden vintage soul. Their new EP Plays It Cool features four excellent instrumentals across a 10” record. Read more on our staff picks page!
