There’s a film due out in September which surrounds Blur’s Wembley foray, which honestly, looks like a real nice time. It’s basically nice to see the gang back together and Damon and Graham being pals again. There’s a clip of their performance of ‘Beetlebum’ you can watch, which not only shows the magnitude of the…

We promised we’d share the new video from The Junipers when we had it, and here it is! It’s a wonderful nugget of sunshine super pop, with hooky organ and dreamy psychedelia. If you’re into popsike, Emitt Rhodes and all that good stuff, you’ll love The Junipers already no doubt. In case you’re new here,…

We’ve featured Lael Neale before and like her music a lot. It’s a kinda Velvetsy, kinda singer-songwritery music that is varied and sure footed and really turns our dials! ‘Electricity’ is the name of her new single and it’s got a fun, charming video to accompany it, which you can watch below. Neale says, “I…

Ranking things is such a pointless and ugly endeavour. However, it is not beneath us to be either of those things in a futile bid to create some false engagement while people disagree or agree with you. With that, we’re not going to rank every Tiny Desk concert from the lovely folks at NPR, because…

You already know how amazing The Junipers are, and that they’re just about the most perfect sunshine pop band in the entire universe. The last single was a beautiful, hopeful return to form and we’re genuinely thrilled to learn that there’s even more to come and we won’t have long to wait to hear it!…

Fans of Orville Peck may recognise Bria Salmena from playing in his live band. Well, good news for Western-inflecked road-trip music lovers is that Bria has a solo record out. ‘Bending Over Backwards’ is Salmena’s debut solo cut under her own name and signed to Sub Pop, these are all good reasons to press play…

Jorja Smith’s R&B output was great, but we get a special kick when she’s dancefloor ready, especially like that killer Preditah remix that appeared a while back. She has a new single out called ‘High’ which is a tribal-ish house affair and is a sophisticated little groover that is ticking all the boxes for us.…

“You broke my sitar, motherfucker!” In the current climate of pop and rock, it might be impossible to think of a documentary like ‘DIG!’ being made. So unflinching is it in parts, that you can’t foresee the manicured bands of 2025 allowing themselves to be shown quite as starkly as The Dandy Warhols and Brian…

James Elkington has a very pleasing folkie number out – along with a bunch of other songs too – all for a new LP called ‘Pastel De Nada’. The album is out March 28th, and of the new bits, ‘Very Berk Squad’ is a beautiful little instrumental gem. Press play.

AI is objectively awful for people who actually make things. In short, big tech is taking things from people, and it means they’ll lose their income. While some use of AI may make you laugh or be kinda novel, the fact remains that governments the world over are saying that it’s okay for tech companies…

Ever wished someone would make some synthpop that leaned a little more on the gothic side of things, without falling into stupid sexpot Industrial music? We have some great news for you! Circuit des Yeux have released a new track called ‘Canopy of Eden’ which is from new LP ‘Halo On The Inside’. It’s a…
