WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
We could write a load of stuff about this, but there’s very little point when the contents of the video are so fun and wholesome that it speaks for itself. THUNDERCAT! YO GABBA GABBA! NPR TINY DESK! Press play immediately!
-
Before we round up the stuff from 2024 that we thought was great, we’re going to have a little fun predicting what might happen next year in the world of music. Outside of music, you have to wonder if those stupid Marvel films are going to trudge on. They probably will. Of course, it’ll be
-
Look, we’ve been feeling poorly which meant no posts for a few days. However, we just saw this Fly On The Wall vid where producer The Alchemist is snooping around for loops with a tonne of records and it’s real nerdy and fun to watch. It’s with DAMNDUST and they’re in Bahrain, and you’ll like

Do you like Kaytranada? Well, if you’re a European reader, the good news is that he’ll be doing a tour around Europe, which gives you the opportunity to shake your backside. Great stuff. This is part of the ‘Timeless Tour’, and this relates to the LP he released in Summer. Honestly, all these words are

Streaming is hugely popular and, on the strength of people sharing their Spotify Wrapped graphics to social media platforms, it doesn’t look like it will be going anywhere, anytime soon. Or is it? In the immediacy, Spotify, Apple Music, and the rest, won’t be worrying too much as they continue to rake in cash, left,

If you’re into Jazzanova, or even Todd Terje or Nu Genea, then here’s something you should get your chops around – the new single from Roi Turbo. The pair are two brothers who go by the name of Benjamin and Conor McCarthy, and they make the kind of music that crosses over out of the
-
Shygirl really doesn’t miss, and has been making some killer party music for a while now. Unsurprisingly, she was invited to open for Charli XCX, to light the touch paper on Brat Summer. We like Shygirl in bouncy hip-house mode the best, so with the announcement of a new EP called ‘Club Shy Room 2’,
-
A recent appearance on the new Kendrick LP, ‘GNX’, isn’t going to anyone’s appeal any harm. So with that, after a guestie, West Coast’s AZChike has released a new track while the iron is hot. It’s a clatterer and goes by the name of ‘Love Yo Weapons’, and you can hear it below. —

Nothing should surprise us when it comes to Paul McCartney’s creativity. The man has been making LPs bursting with ideas and songs that switch pace halfway through, making you wonder just how much weed he was smoking at any given time. Sometimes, it’s a playful spirit, sometimes, you can actively hear his attention span being
-
Sharon Van Etten has a new outfit with The Attachment Theory, so sorry for making it sound like a solo cut with the headline, there. No matter, it’s a fine slab of molten rock ‘n’ synth which comes from the group’s debut LP. The track is called ‘Southern Life (What It Must Be Like)’ and

KUNT UP RADIO COMING SOON
As much as we love glittery pop and divas, it’s fair to say that the media landscape’s representation of gay people can be rather one-dimensional. So with that, we’ve just caught wind of something that looks to shake things up in a fun way, and it’s got a real zinger of a name whichever way…

KEEPING SECRETS WITH BONNIE PRINCE BILLY
Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy released some new stuff recently and notably, there was an LP called ‘Keeping Secrets Will Destroy You’. In true Prince Bill form, the song of the same name didn’t feature and he’s released it afterwards. It’s not that confusing or that deep. What it is, is a really good Bonny ‘Prince’ Billy…

ANTHONY BURGESS QUARTET TO GET FIRST AIRING
Of course, most people know Anthony Burgess as the titan behind the frantic and somewhat savage ‘A Clockwork Orange’, but maybe less well known is that the writer was a frustrated musician. Initially an indifferent music listener, it wasn’t until he heard ‘Prélude à l’après-midi d’un faune’ by Debussy that his world turned upside down, and…

VID: EVERY OSCAR WINNER, FUN!
Not everything we cover on here is music. Pop Culture is more than bands, even though we’re most interested in music. However, here’s a diversion for your eyes. Evasive makes brilliant videos and you should go subscribe immediately. Informative and blah blah, but very funny and super dry. They’re great ideas too, such as ‘making’…
