Sophisti-pop releases, week 39

· 6 releases

This week's sophisti-pop highlights explore the genre's rich intersections with heritage and experimentation. Tiakola unveils WpointM, a work rooted in African origins, while Tears For Fears revisit a cult album that shaped their legacy. Roxy Music's Avalon is examined through the lens of an overlooked contributor, and A Certain Ratio release new reissues of their seminal works. The genre's enduring influence is further reflected in retrospectives on Everything But The Girl's 1991 milestone and a cult film born from the baggy-trousered era.
