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…

REVIEW / KENDRICK LAMAR / GNX

DESERT ROCK FROM DAX RIGGS
While we don’t profess to be experts in the ways of desert rock, and worry that we might be typing out ‘dessert rock’ by accident every time, we know what we like, and we like this new one from Dax Riggs. It’s a fine slab of desert sludge fuzz, and this is apparently Riggs’ first…

OKLOU DEBUT IS COMING
French artist Oklou is a new one on us, and y’know, we could pretend that we’ve been all over her music for ages and we’re catching you slow pokes up, but that would be disingenuous. The news we read is that there’s a new album afoot called ‘choke enough’ and that’ll be out in February. We’re…
