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…

The sponsors were pulling out, and the government were getting involved, so it isn’t surprising that the Kanye three night headliner set has seen Wireless Festival be fully cancelled. The UK government were talking about whether or not the artist would be allowed in the country, and have now fully blocked Kanye West’s travel to…

CHANPAN’S POP DRUM N BASS
Chanpan are from New York – which seems to be popping off as a city again these days, right? – and they’re a trio who make future facing, personality-led pop, which is no bad thing obviously if you’re in the market for something to get into. They’ve been making a decent amount of noise for…

GOVT + LIVE MUSIC + BREXIT
The Culture Minister – Ian Murray – has promised the “full commitment” of the UK government in a bid to remove the barriers around touring in the EU and UK, apparently. There’s been a lot of talk about this in recent years, with musicians hamstrung by bureaucracy and levies, while trying to earn a living.…
