Every week Apple adds tons of new media content on iTunes — music, books, movies and more. It's impossible to keep up with all of it, but it's not impossible to pick out the very best. Here they are! This week we've got a new album from two giants in electronic music, animated fun for the kids, a tear jerker and more!
High Life - Eno-Hyde
The second collaboration between two legendary electronic musicians — ambient music pioneer Brian Eno and Underworld frontman and cofounder Karl Hyde. This is the second outing for the two in just a few months (a followup to Someday World, which just out in May). This album combines electronic sounds, voice, rhythms and guitar work to create a unique tapestry that you won't soon forget, if you're a fan of either of these giants in their field. The two principle influences the collaborators discuss for this new album is Steve Reich, the American composer who along with Philip Glass and others pioneered minimal music in the 1960s, as well as Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti. Two seemingly disparate influences that come together for a memorable seven-track album.

Organized crime boss James "Whitey" Bulger terrorized South Boston for decades.
