James Irwin Toronto, Ontario
Despite shifting from outsider folk to low-fi 80s pop to indie rock and back, the mood and lyrical voice of James Irwin's music has always been unmistakable.
Bandmates used to call it "Jamesing”.

Sword & Sworcery LP - The Ballad of the Space Babies
by Jim Guthrie
supported by 8 fans who also own “Bluedust”
I listened to these tracks for months after falling in love with the game during a long winter. Chill, varied, and mysterious.

All Delighted People EP
by Sufjan Stevens
supported by 7 fans who also own “Bluedust”
It may not be a full-fledged LP, but All Delighted People is probably my favourite of Sufjan's works. Without an overaching album theme to tie the songs together, it felt like Sufjan was free to experiment on each track and give them their own unique sound. And because of that (and Sufjan's talent), every track on there is a standout track.
