WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
It might feel a bit on the nose, what with her surname being ‘Haha’, but Gelli Haha wants to remind you that, despite all the ills of the world, you’re still allowed to have fun, dance in your underpants at home, and that giddy pop dance music is still on the menu. Now, it’s not…

Alison Goldfrapp is one of our most cherished artists, from her work with Orbital in the ’90s, to being a one-woman Electro Glam stomper, to dancefloor queen and witchy, pagan folkie too! She’s just terrific. The good news is that she’s got a new LP coming out in August and it is called ‘Flux’. The…

We genuinely think there’s an argument for Bone Thugs-N-Harmony being the most underrated hip hop group ever. Hugely popular of course, and massively influential, but they’re criminally overlooked in a lot of Hall of Fame chat, for our money. In better news, they’ve just released a new single called ‘Aww Shit’, and even better is…
-
We’re not trying to be That Guy by getting excited about a DJ playing vinyl and mixing manually, but it is a treat when someone does a cool set the old way. There’s nothing wrong with the USB stick crew, but allow us to feel nostalgic. With that, we just finished listening to a brilliant,…

We’re forever rooting for Kacey Musgraves as she’s just about the freshest voice in country music at the moment, and seemingly is unafraid to march to the sound of her own drum, where a lot of other country musicians bind themselves with musical conservatism. Well, Kacey has signed to Lost Highway Records which has relaunched,…
-
We have been incredibly lazy when it comes to reminding ourselves to share the tracklisting from the FREE RANGE radio show. We plain forgot that it was a piece of admin we used to do, until we were reminded by a listener. So with that, here’s the latest show for May 2025, featuring a lot…

Jorja Smith has committed herself, it seems, to do whatever the hell she wants, and we’re absolutely strapped in for the ride. From dreamy R&B, to killer UK Garage appearances, and now, absolutely filthy bassline music. To get you up for the weekend, here’s her new track ‘The Way I Love You’, which will punch…
-
We already told you that the mighty Aesop Rock has got a new LP coming out called ‘Black Hole Superette’, but we’re going to stick with the promo, as he’s got a new track out and he’s ever reliable and wordy and fun. The new track is called ‘Send Help’, and he’s got all his…
-
“When I was young, I got raped by a bitch twice my age.” The opening line to YG’s recent single ‘2004’ there, to almost zero column inches or thought. While music journalism focused once again on Kanye’s latest implosion, Kneecap’s politics and gamely filling up pages with Korean pop in the hope to grab some…
-
We’re fast getting obsessed with Turnstile. They’re no ordinary hardcore band, and wear a variety of influences on their sleeves, with a richer sound that simply whacking you over the head with breakdowns (which obviously, is fun in its own right). This new run of music had us wondering if they’d gone a bit Balearic…

TSHA HAS SOME DANCEFLOOR DYNAMITE FOR YOU
TSHA has a new song out called ‘Green’ and its ace! It’s a dancer, but it’s an emotional affair too – just what we like to see! There’s nothing quite like an emotional banger, right? She says: “Me and my partner were in the studio together, about to write something. He was getting on my nerves,…

SOCCER MOMMY IS BACK, KIDS
A little while ago, there was a spate of records and acts that were kinda miserable, but anthemic with it. It wasn’t exactly Grunge 2.0, but emotional lyrics and crunchy guitars were definitely back. One of the better artists from this period was Soccer Mommy, who as it happens, is back with a new song!…

NEW MUSIC FROM MEN I TRUST
Men I Trust – it’s been a while. The last thing they put out was back in 2021 when they released their ‘Untourable Album’, which went down very well with everyone. Of course, there’s been dribs and drabs, and last year they put out the ace ‘Ring of Past’, but now, they’re back with a…

PSYCHY ELECTRONICS FROM THE GREEN CHILD
The Green Child are an Aussie group that went from two members to four (apologies for the old picture, then) and they have a really cool new single out called ‘Wow Factor’ which reminds us of loads of good stuff made by loads of other cool and unique bands. Seriously, we’re into it! There’s a…
