Black Unicorn – Squid & Whale
For those of you who think that they just don’t make massive, thought-inducing, concept tapes like they used to, have I got the album for you.

Even if you get too wrapped up in the music, you can follow the story along with a Spark Notes-esque summary generously printed in the tape’s packaging. Still, there is enough to enjoy here for those just looking to bliss out to a fantastic droning synth tape without worrying about the bigger picture. Enormous humpback recommendation!
