Croydon's Rachel Chinouriri released her second EP, Four° in Winter, on Friday, an arresting eight-track collection of songs of intricate arrangments and wistful contemplation, three years on from her debut EP.  It's a rainy Sunday kind of listen, atmospheric and mesmeric, and on "UKNY" tonight at 11p.m., one of the tracks from Rachel's beautiful new offering.

London composer, producer, pianist, and rapper Alfa Mist also dropped his latest album, Bring Backs, on Friday, and we'll delve more deeply into that immersive jazz and hip hop hybrid. More from Wolf Alice's forthcoming third album, Blue Weekend, plus Leeds quartet English Teacher, Galway's NewDad, London's Bess Atwell, and a labyrinthine, psychedelic fever dream courtesy of The Holy Family.

All that and more on "UKNY," from 11 p.m.-midnight on 90.7, streaming online, and available after broadcast in the Weekend Archives.
