WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
The problem with drum ‘n’ bass albums is that, if you only like the genre to a certain point – or solely on a night out, dancing communally with others – they can wear a bit thin quite quickly. That’s why, when someone makes a breakout, crossover record, they have to cast their net a…

Gayance is a huge favourite of ours, and the last album she released is still firmly on our turntable. ‘Mascarade’ married house with R&B, jazz fusion and all your favourite styles of music, in one unique and irresistible package. If you want to read a review of the album, you can do that here. With…

Cornershop are a true treasure from the British Isles, reminding us that music can be every bit as fun as it is important. You can make a point and take some jabs at dickheads while still putting a big smile on everyone’s faces, right? Either way, Leicester’s finest have a new track out which marries…

If you like your Post Punk to have a bucketload of funk and dirty disco in it, then you need to get on this new track from Sweeping Promises. They happen to have a new LP coming out in August called ‘You Say I Romanticize’ too, so good news all ’round. They say of this…

There’s a lot of fuss being made about The Linda Lindas and honestly, it seems well earned to us, as they’re a good-time shot in the arm for punk with a pop slant, that doesn’t sound like the dreaded ‘pop punk’ – there is a difference. Now, the girls are on a major label and…

Well, if it isn’t an absolute marriage made in heaven – the new champion of drum ‘n’ bass and the queen of bassline – Nia Archives and Jorja Smith – on a track together! It makes a whole lot of sense, and you know it! This is the fourth single from Nia’s new album ‘Emotional…

It’s strange for old heads to hear the influence of old, glitchy electronic music finding it’s way into new releases that basically sound like pop music. And it’s strange in a good way. The influence of SOPHIE went overground when Charli XCX announced that, whether anyone liked it or not (and most people did), it…

We got a press release filled with words that confused the hell out of us, but it clearly piqued our interest enough to press play over all the other press bunf we get. It said: God of War, the project of They Are Gutting A Body of Water’s Douglas Dulgarian and Hooky’s Scott Turner and…

You’re probably looking at this very article because you’ve listened to the FREE RANGE radio show of July and wanted to know what some of the songs were called on it. Or, this piece is the very reminder you needed to alert you to the fact it is out in the first place. Either way,…

Gilla Band used to be Girl Band, but changed their name. We’ll be able to stop saying that soon, as they’ll have a new album out and we can all move on. This new record is called ‘Pugnello’ and if you’re not fussed with more writing and want the tunes, scroll to the bottom for…
