WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
It’s remarkable, that for a band as well documented as The Beatles, that there’s any surprises left. Yet, there we were with our jaws on the floor watching Peter Jackson’s ‘Get Back’, while Paul McCartney chipped away at a notion until it became the centrepiece of the whole film. Never mind the rooftop gig (great…

The wonderful thing about ageing is the acknowledgment of the relentless passing of time. Your knees start hurting. Your sleep is disturbed because you need to get up in the middle of the night to pee. You can end up in a full body brace because your sock was folded slightly oddly in your shoe,…

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…

What’s the deal here? A music blog, being launched in a time when blogging is absolutely dead, especially trying to cover music? What’s the point in that? Well, call it a labour of love. Call it foolhardiness. Call it what you want, but the chances of this making any money is basically nil, and thankfully,…

IS THIS REALLY THE SWIFTIES VS TECH BROS VOTE IN THE USA?
The presidential race in the USA has a lot hanging on it, for sure, but regardless of that, the whole thing has made for some really good TV. It always does, because one thing the Americans love, is making great television. A thick line has been drawn and either side of it stand two candidates…

WAVY RAP FROM BABYFACE RAY
A lovely little Detroit one-two here from Babyface Ray, featuring Veeze. Babyface has a new album this week called ‘The Kid That Did’ which we’re looking forward to hearing. In advance, you can listen to ‘Wavy Navy University’, which is a psychedelic take on trap-hop. Big Sean, Pusha T and G Herbo count themselves as…

MUNA: SCARY FANS
MUNA are great, have had a number of hot songs, and with that, have seen their popularity rightly grow. The group’s identity have seen them filling a hole in pop culture which has seen a pocket of fans feeling incredibly seen by them, to use the common parlance of the youth. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it turns…

INDIE FUZZ FROM GIRL SCOUT
If you’re in the market for some seriously fun indie fuzz pop, then you will like the new song from Swedish group Girl Scout, who just so happen to have told everyone that they’ve got a new EP coming out. The EP is called ‘Headache’ and it’ll be out in November (where did the year…
