WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
We’ve featured Dora Morelenbaum on these pages before so we’re excited to share that she has her debut LP coming out soon! With a mix of bossa, samba and psych, Dora’s music has showcased her to be one of the most exciting new Brazilian artists in the scene. The new album is called ‘Pique’ and…

Outside of Japan and Korea, everything is a little bit Solo Artist, so it’s lovely to see the flame of girl groups still being carried by FLO who have been doing good bits for a while now with their brand of R&B infused pop music. They recently shared their new track ‘Check’ which they have…

We appreciate that some people like it when rock and rap mix. There’s no accounting for taste and all that, but the nadir of the late ’90s and early ’00s when Woodstock went from a peace and love festival and turned into an awful frat house party filled with rap-rock groups shows just how dismal…
-
Britney Spears has, shall we say, had a very full life. It hasn’t all been peaches and cream, which means news that her life will be getting the biopic treatment is tentatively good news. We say it tentatively because not all biopics are good, but we are 100% rooting for this one because we think…

It all felt somewhat inevitable that young people would look at the streaming model and wonder why they didn’t have anything to show for their money. Obviously, the convenience of having most of the world’s music in your pocket is a miracle of a thing, but when you look around your room or your house…

Look, the rap musical Hamilton was awful. You don’t need to point out how successful it has been, how Lin Manuel Miranda is probably a nice guy, or even how much you liked it – it stunk. One dimensional rapping over old-head beats performed by a cast portraying a bunch of racist white dudes who…

We were reading about tg.blk over at another site and liked what we heard. Instead of hoarding this information to ourselves, we thought we would share it here, because that’s what good people do. Seriously – stop hoarding music to yourself – nobody wins when you do that. tg.blk have a new six track EP…

Doechii has called herself a number of things over the years – the one we like best is “the trap Grace Jones” – and if that’s piqued your interest, shall we get onto the lovely business of a new record to listen to? She’s got a new one out called ‘Nissan Altima’, which to the…

It is kinda funny that Charli XCX announced BRAT SUMMER when Confidence Man have been acting up for ages now, sneering and partying like the world might end tomorrow. With that, they’ve got a new song out called ‘SO WHAT’ which is the usual mixture of pouting and hedonism which is difficult to pull off…

After a well advised name-change, The Blessed Madonna has a new track out and it sounds like a weekend banger to us. It is called ‘Godspeed’ and features DJ E-Clyps. Very nice. The Blessed Madonna will be releasing her first full length LP and that’ll drop in October so we’ve a while to wait yet.…
STOP HOARDING TUNES

YOUR DAD HEARD HIS FAVE IS SLATING DRAKE
The thing with Old Heads is that they can’t help but slate stuff they think is new, even though it’s kinda old hat now. Look at any YouTube comment section, and there they are, saying Justin Bieber isn’t good, even though he’s like, thirty years old now or something. Autotune is bad, and new hip…

THROWBACK SLAPS WITH DIZZEE, JME + D DOUBLE E
The early 2000s is when Grime really popped off, and that was over 20 years ago. So yes, throwback is entirely appropriate for the new banger from Dizzee Rascal, JME and D Double E. The new track is a thronker of a thing, and called ‘What You Know About That’. It’s from Dizzee’s imminent ‘Don’t…

RIDE REMIND YOU WHY YOU LOVE ‘EM
Shoegaze making a comeback was probably a bit of a pleasant surprise for some of the older heads, as there was a period where it was cripplingly unfashionable. However, MBV got back together and did some shows and destroyed everyone’s earholes, and the young indie fans got lost in the wash of distortion and reverb…

YOUNG MIKO BANGS
The hotshot from Puerto Rico, Young Miko, has teamed up with Argentinian producer Bizarrap to make an early 2024 banger! It’s not got a catchy name, but you’re going to enjoy it. It’s called ‘Young Miko: Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 58’. Hardly rolls off the tongue, does it? Now, this is melodic and the flow…
