Other notable announcements and developments today…

• Beyonce has unveiled a load of poorly conceived Christmas merch if you’re stuck for a present for one of her fans who really will be happy with any old shit.

• I don’t think we should be talking about Christmas yet really, but Daft Punk’s new baubles are pretty cool. They’d want to be at that price, though. There’s a snowglobe too. No snowglobe should cost $50.

• Faber is publishing a collection of Scott Walker lyrics, titled ‘Sundog’, featuring songs from across his career. More info here.

• Rae Morris has released ‘Atletico’, taken from her second album, ‘Someone Out There’, which is due out on 2 Feb.

• Sufjan Stevens has released the video for ‘The Greatest Gift’, the title track from his new rarities compilation, which is out today.

• The new expanded edition of what is definitely one of the best albums of 2017, Kelly Lee Owens’ eponymous debut, is out today. Here’s one of its bonus tracks, ‘Spaces’.

• Maxta has released new track ‘Keep It Moving’, featuring P Money.

• I Prevail have released the video for ‘Already Dead’, taken from their latest album, ‘Lifelines’.

• Young Juvenile Youth have released the video for ‘Her’, the opening track from new album ‘Mirror’.
