WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
Cami Layé Okún is one of the finest and funnest DJs around right now. Playing music from Cuba (and elsewhere, but you need a hook, right?) she’s all about that rhythm and sunshine melody! This is not so much a piece where we need to write a great deal – basically, go follow her on…

Hip hop has found itself in a funny place lately. Everyone’s broke. There’s been a pandemic. Energy bills are out of control. Prices are going up. It’s difficult to listen to someone talk about how many millions they’ve got hanging off their wrist. It’s tough to stomach listening to someone complain about how lonely they…

Have you heard of Michael Rault? Well, there’s a good chance he released the finest LP of 2022, if you’re into perfect pop that’s cut with all good things like West Coast 70s music, Paul McCartney’s Wings, ELO (aka Beatles: The Musical), Harry Nilsson etc. If you need more modern recommendations, then file Michael Rault…

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…

KÁRYYN’S FUTURE SOUL EXPERIMENTS
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…

JEFF PARKER ETA IVTET LIVE
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…
