WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
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
-
It is stylised as girlpuppy, but it is the project of Becca Harvey, who has release her first single called ‘Champ’, which is a pretty dreamy, melodic slice of indie pop. The video mildly belies the sound, being boxing themed, but it’s sure fun to watch. If you like shoegaze, but not the super derivative

SURPRISE NEW NONAME TRACK!
We’re big fans of NONAME who is someone who absolutely marches to the beat of her own drum, and she’s at it again with a surprise new track! Called ‘Hundred Acres’, it appeared on the algorithm which did its job for once, and as you’d expect, it’s smart as hell, funky, irresistible chorus, and is…

LANKUM WITH A HALLOWEEN TREAT
If you’ve heard ‘Dig My Grave’ by Lankum, you’re probably still a but spun out by it (or thunderously turned on if that’s you’re thing) and it’s gothic bedlam. Well, they’re at it again with a little treat for Halloween (and the general state of the world, sadly) with a unique take on ‘Ghost Town’…

KELLY LEE OWENS 132 TECHNO
Kelly Lee Owens is ace, especially when she’s in dancefloor mode – and she’s shared a new track from the EP ‘KELLY’ which we particularly like. The release of the EP is November 21st, and this new track should get your motor running in the meantime. It goes by the name of ‘132 TECHNO’, and…

BIG R&B FROM KEIYAA
A lot of R&B lately, has been so stoned or strung out on Xannies that it’s barely there. That’s fine and all that, but sometimes you want something a big more focused and bigger with the kind of drums that rattle your windows. Thank god then, for keiyaA, who is dropping her ‘hooke’s law’ album…
