WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
BICEP are responsible for a number of big sweaty dance tracks and they’re at it again with a new collab with Eliza, which obviously, you can hear below or else why would we be writing about it, right? Hailing from Northern Ireland if you’re updating your files, the pair have announced ‘CHROMA 000’ which is a…

Spotify’s flirtation with authoritarian politics continues. It started with creaming money off the success of Rogan’s podcast, it continued with the news that founder Daniel Ek was using everyone’s money to fund AI in drones for war, and now, ICE recruitment. A number of artists have been pulling their music off the platform, and some…

If you’ve got a pair of Clarks and love the occasional camping holiday in the South of France, you are probably a fan of the mighty Tunng. Folkie in a non-cringe, authentic way. Acid folk for fun drop-out mums and dads. Well, there’s a new Tunng single out called ‘Anoraks’. Sam Genders says: “One of…
-
Never mind the podcasts and tabloid stuff – we’re a music blog and we’re focusing on that, thank you very much. And the news is that Lily Allen has announced that she’s releasing a new album after some years away from the scene. The new record will be her fifth and called ‘West End Girl’…

Courtney Barnett is great and, more importantly, she’s back with her first new single in a couple of years, with a song called ‘Stay In Your Lane’. As ever, there’s tension and discordant stuff to couple with the strong melodies, and apparently, Barnett recorded the track in a bid to work through the trials of bottling…
-
Rosalia’s last couple of albums have been excellent, and ‘MOTOMAMI’ just about propelled her into superstardom, so all eyes are on the next release, right? It’s either no pressure or loads of pressure! Well, the news is that there’s going to be a new record called ‘LUX’, and no-one has to wait too long, as…

Sometimes the algorithm drops a video in your lap out of absolutely nowhere and blows your brains out, so the only thing to do is share it wider. We don’t speak the language, but we think this might be of Egyptian origin (let us know if you know), and it’s a bunch of cool older…

It’s so nice that Nick Heyward is back with Haircut 100. They were a wonderful band and, better yet, the new stuff is equally fantastic, with their super smart sophisticated jangly pop. Sophistipop, you might say. Well, we covered a song by the reformed gang a while ago, and honestly, we can’t remember what we…
-
There’s a new EP coming from Helado Negro called ‘The Last Sound On Earth’, which sounds like it’s going to be one worth checking in on. He says that the whole thing has been inspired by “Miami bass, freestyle, jungle, and electronic dance music I grew up dancing to” and first track ‘Protector’ shows a…

It is time once again, where we’ve remembered to upload the tracklisting for the newest FREE RANGE radio show, because we so frequently forget and we genuinely get people asking what songs we’ve played after butchering various pronunciations. We missed September for no good reason other than idleness brought on by going for a weekend…
STOP HOARDING TUNES

LATTO, MEGAN THEE STALLION, FLO MILLI
Latto’s ‘Sunday Service’ is now an all-star affair now there’s a redo with the million selling Megan Thee Stallion and the mighty Flo Milli. As you’re expect, it’s a huge club ready clunky beat and firebrand cockiness on the mic from all three. An uber charismatic affair as you can imagine. It’s not a game-changer…

THIRD ELECTRIC PENDERGRASS LP DROPS
The third Electric Pendergrass album has dropped, with more vaporwave-ish synth wibbles and obscure mining of soft breaks and bits. This new one, available to download for free (or at any price you fancy throwing into the hat if you’re feeling generous), is only available from Bandcamp, so if you’re waiting for Spotify, don’t hold…

NEW DE LA SOUL DOCUMENTARY
De La Soul have had their fair share of troubles when it comes to the songs they’ve sampled, who owns their back catalogue and all that murky stuff. It seems that there’s some wiggle room at long last, and now they’re able to enjoy their body of work that they’ve created. With that, there’s a…

NEW CARIBOU 4 U
We’re generally not that fussed about Caribou, but you might like them and Dan Snaith seems like a nice fella, so here’s the news of a new single for you to listen to. It’s a sprightly affair and goes by the name of ‘Broke My Heart’. We’ve just looked into it and it seems there…
