WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
Lily Allen was responding to a tweet about criticism of her. The tweet asked where “this smear campaign” had come from, noting it had come “from nowhere”. Her reply stated “Oh its coming from somewhere, but we move!” Then, as evidenced by the image above, she added ‘Bots<Birkins’ Now, Allen’s album – ‘West End Girl’…

Harry Styles doesn’t need reviews to help him being a continued success. He’s kinda quirky and well dressed enough that will keep his fanbase rabid – the nice tailoring will keep him ahead of his peers whatever music he puts out. And so, to his new album, ‘Kiss All The Time – Disco, Occasionally’, which…

Tinariwen have a new single out called ‘Amidinim Ehaf Solan’ and it is a timely piece about the turmoil of the political situation in the world right now. Touhami Ag Alhassane says the track “speaks of patience and unity amid political turmoil, a reminder that even a thirsty land can turn green again.” The lyrics…

FREE RANGE RADIO is our complimentary (and complementary) radio show that we put online for free and will be available to listen to for a few months whenever you feel like it.

You think synthpop and [insert]wave might be done and dusted, but then someone releases a single and it all comes flooding back, and just why you love analogue synths and ’80s arpeggio basslines so much. And so, to Michelle Sara’s new single – ‘Forever’ – which is a slow, bubbling thing which really ticks the…

If you know Aldous Harding, you probably already love her and that headline is of absolutely zero surprise to you. That said, this won’t stop us from getting all excited about new music and sharing it. This new one is a gorgeous piece of music that drops into a lovely little groove and we don’t…

We’ve featured Green-House on our pages a couple of times now, and we’re thrilled to share even more music as we’re completely rapt. They have a new album coming out on Ghostly International and to celebrate that, a second single has been issued which we’re completely in love with called ‘Under The Oak’. The new…

Things appear online and you just have to admire people’s ability to find stuff and share it with everyone without wanting recompense. Here then, we have one of the finest videos we’ve seen – a funk, gospel and soul revue from 1970 which stars Tina Turner, Five Stairsteps, Edwin Hawkins Singers, The Isley Brothers, The…

We are big fans of PinkPantheress here, and her album ‘Fancy That’ has rightly got a shedload of plaudits and enthusiasts. And then came the remixes, which were also a whole load of fun too! Well, now there’s a Four Tet remix which is a energetic little affair and not two artists we’d immediately put…

You need to be on the ball to keep up with JME as he doesn’t really do things like anyone else. Name another MC that stopped performing while they made money selling hoverboards. Right. Well, he’s put out a new hot banger, and he’s all out of track names. No fuss, no drama, no promo…

LONGPLAYER WITH THAT 70S GOOD GOOD
It seems that there’s a bit of a cottage industry around Drugdealer, where anyone related to them in any way is putting out sepia-toned ’70s pop, which is obviously a good thing. Are the returns a wholesale great thing? We dunno, but it’s always worth tuning in for honestly, given the strength of the second…

THEPOPCORPS WAS INTO LEMUR MUSIC BEFORE IT WAS BIG
There’s been a study undertaken that could show how humans first started getting into music as a species, and we were into it first. The study suggests that Madagascan lemurs used music for a variety of purposes, which could give insight in how humans evolved into creating music, but we prefer the early stuff. Co-author…

Look, we don’t quite know what’s happening but we’ll share the news all the same. On Brian Wilson’s Instagram page, it basically says that coming this Friday, is ‘Ding Dang’. We had a little search on Google for ‘Brian Wilson Ding Dang’, and all it came up with was a link to his website which sadly…
