Number 8 in my top ten comfort-listens is Kiasmos's Kiasmos
Album name: Kiasmos
Artist: Kiasmos
Who they sound like according to Spotify's recommendations: Rival Consoles, Max Cooper, Jon Hopkins
Most comforting musical element: The sheer musicality of their classical influences
Least comforting musical element: The fact that I used this as intro music at my 2015 Edinburgh Fringe show, which was such an intense experience I have only just started to listen to this album again
What it's like being smothered by (in a good way): The endless stares of arm-crossed audience members with furrowed brows that suggest their one burning thought: "well, this is NOTHING like Michael McIntyre"... and then it turns out they quite liked it
Comfort food it should be paired with: A plate of deep-fried chips that's been marked up £3 because it's the Edinburgh Fringe
Public figure I would recommend this album to so they can chill the heck out: MICHAEL CRAPPING MCINTYRE
What the opposite of this album sounds like: My forthcoming 2019 Edinburgh Fringe show Seven Inch, showing 1.15pm every day at the News Room from August 1st to 13th (see what I did there?)
