WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
When Jorja Smith is in the mood, there’s few people who can make dancefloor ready music quite like her. She is truly the best of all things British music, and with her new single, she’s gone and done it again. She is, apparently, entering a ‘new chapter’, which we’ll no doubt hear more about in…
-
Are you kidding? That’s too much music for one sitting. That’s too many songs at the same time to wade through. That’s like, a million tracks or something. There’s other music that needs listening to as well, right? So, with that, let us simply guess what’s contained within these THREE albums all released at exactly…
-
Sometimes, we give you the tip-off as we stumble into it, rather than hoarding it while we form an opinion – it is sometimes better to just yell ‘Hey! Check this out! This might be cool and we should all find out together!’ With that, we just listened to ‘Cola’ by Namasenda who is apparently…
-
Anyone related to El Michels Affair is worth taking note of, and member and studio whizz Marco Benevento has been releasing some seriously good pop (of an alternative variety – don’t be expecting Dua Lipa or anything like that) under his own steam. There’s a new album due called ‘Glera’ which is out in July,…

You know Mike D aka Michael Diamond aka maybe the goofiest guy in the Beastie Boys – well, he’s got a new single out, and seeing as the Beasties are cool guys, we’re sharing it here because good for him! The single is called ‘Switch Up’ and, importantly (and somewhat remarkably) it is the first…
-
Now that the Super Furry Animals are back together and currently on the road, showing everyone how they’re the best psychedelic group of a generation – how did it all start? Well, the various members of SFA were all in different groups around Wales, and thankfully, Walian TV station S4C made a little documentary about…
-
There’s no-one quite like Aldous Harding. From the lyrical content, the jarring but hot-as-hell dancing, the switching of voices, the costumes, the arresting videos… and most importantly, the utterly unique approach in her brilliant songwriting. So, we’re here with her newest album, and the words are once again twisting and turning, all delivered in Harding’s…

We just heard about KÁRYYN, who has a new album coming which was co-pro’d with Hudson Mohawke and James Ford, and sounds very exciting indeed, based on the new track from it. The album is called ‘Physics Universal Love Language (Pull)’ and the first track is ‘End To Knowing’. She’s an Syrian-Armenian-American artist, and the…

We got very excited to the album from the Jeff Parker ETA IVTet, and gave it a great review on these very pages. You can read that review here. Well, if you’re not for reading words about albums you’ve not heard yet (what’s wrong with you?) but are in the market for new jazz, you’re…

The Hanging Stars are a wonderful marriage of country, C90 indie, cosmic rock, psychedelic folk, power pop, and Laurel Canyon rootsy business – so it’s always good news when you hear that they’re back with new music! There’s a new album coming out on June 19th called ‘Just A Day’ and if you haven’t heard…

JORJA SMITH DOES IT AGAIN

MARCO BENEVENTO’S GLORIOUS POP
