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…

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.

IWD PSYCHEDELIC MIX
We’re a day late on this, but that doesn’t diminish the quality of this psychedelic, woman focused mix from Jawa Jones. It also doesn’t diminish the wonderful socialist event that is International Women’s Day. Go read up the day’s origins. And yes, there’s an International Men’s Day. It’s in November. Of course, this mix is…

ISOBEL CAMPBELL NEWIE
Belle & Sebastian fans won’t need reminding who Isobel Campbell is, but other people might. So, yep, Isobel was one of the voices that made Belle & Sebastian so fun to listen to and, since that time, she’s gone solo. She’s got a new LP called ‘Bow To Love’ and there’s a track for you…
