  • CHARLOTTE CORNFIELD HAS A LOVELY NEW ONE OUT

    Cute sunshine pop? We’re always in the market for that! Luckily for us, there’s a new track called ‘Cut And Dry’ by Charlotte Cornfield who we’ll confess that we haven’t heard of before, but this is a very lovely song and we will absolutely be investigating further. It’s the second single off her upcoming LP ‘Could

  • KEN BRUCE & POPMASTER ARE BACK

    We all love PopMaster, and if you’re not that aware of it, it’s probably because you’re super young and haven’t listened to live radio once in your life – that’s fine and all, but you’ve been missing out. See, Ken Bruce and his lovely, lovely voice have been testing people’s musical knowledge for years and

  • KAYTRANADA & AMINÉ

    Kaytranada and Aminé are a match made in heaven really, so it’s nice that they’re teaming up again (they’ve worked with each other a bunch before) on a project called KAYTRAMINÉ. Initially, we heard about this via a video on Instagram where their names are being presented on a lovely, orange MPC looking thing. Then, there was

  • DRAKE SEEMINGLY GOADS KANYE WITH KIM SAMPLE AND WE’RE SO TIRED

    Kanye West is game for dunking on at every opportunity, which in part is richly deserved, but also really depressing. The man needs to be accountable for the things he says and does, but jesus, it’s rotten watching someone be so very ill in public. With that, along comes cringebag no.1, Drake. He shared a

  • FREE RANGE TRACKLIST APRIL 23

    The latest FREE RANGE show is up and this one is a little chaotic with loads of killer music on it from all over the world. This one has a guest presenter on it which is real fun. You can listen to it below and the tracklist is a little bit below that. FREE RANGE

  • COSMIC COUNTRY POP FROM JENNY LEWIS

    Cosmic country pop? Like Gram Parsons but with a will to actually sell some records? Big claim that, but fuck it, let’s go with it. We’re talking about Jenny Lewis, who is a bit of a legend in certain circles, and who has a most excellent wardrobe (stop pretending that this isn’t a thing that

  • KISS ARE AT EACH OTHER’S ELDERLY THROATS AGAIN

    It’s funny that ageing rockers bemoan the thin-skins of the yoof, while acting like petulant babies all the time, throwing their toys out of the pram and indulging in very ugly, public, hilarious spats. Just look at Pink Floyd. A very dignified set of old men there. With that, we turn our attentions to KISS.

  • WHICH BAND DOES KEANU LOVE?

    Keanu Reeves is everyone’s non-problematic fave and generally seems like a good dude. Great face too, if we’re still objectifying people in 2023. You can imagine he’s got a half decent and very sizeable record collection, right? His house is probably dead nice. And we’re only mentioning Wyld Stallyns now to say that we won’t

  • APRIL FOOL’S DAY

    We’re not bothering with anything like here, don’t worry. Everything you read today is just a normal story. However, that said, now we’ve drawn attention to it you might think we’ve completely made up our imminent Keanu Reeves piece up, when we haven’t. He’s just that nice.

  • BLUE LIGHTS FROM JAYDA G NOT TO BE MISSED

    She’s a DJ, she’s a producer – Jayda G is bring good and hypnotic vibes to make your feet move around wildly and, luckily enough, there’s a new tune out called ‘Blue Lights’ which is really good. There’s a new LP due too, called ‘Guy’, and that’ll be on Ninja Tune, which is a name

  • KIM GORDON IS A MAN

    Kim Gordon is cool and she’s making an unholy racket with her new single ‘I’m A Man’. If you’re looking for classic Sonic Youth, we don’t think you’re going to find it here – it reminds us a little of Atari Teenage Riot, in slo-mo. Lovely stuff. There’s going to be a new LP out…

  • LAMBRINI GIRLS GO FOR BRITAIN’S JUGULAR

    Lambrini Girls are one of the most popular grot punk bands around right now, and they have a new single out called ‘God’s Country’ which goes after the state of the place we call home, and while it’s about as subtle as a brick in the teeth, you have to admire them for not hiding…

  • IRON MAIDEN VERSUS ASTHMA

    Iron Maiden are funny aren’t they? They’re real ale metal. It’s all little England flirting with Satan rock ‘n’ roll. There’s a place for it, obviously, but did you know just how much lead singer Bruce Dickinson cares about asthma? Now, for the uninitiated, Brucie Baby is the kind of rock ‘n’ roller that a…

  • NEW WARPAINT IS GREAT!

    Warpaint are ace. They’re psychedelic and groovy and don’t make any bad records. To celebrate 20 years together, they’ve put out a new song called ‘Common Blue’ which is as wonderful as ever. This is classic Warpaint, if you’re wondering and being a bit of a drag. Sidenote: Warpaint have the best drummer on the planet…
