WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
Rochelle Jordan is one of the best artists around and she keeps releasing great music to underline how great she is. The singles that have preceded the imminent album have all been excellent and the new one is doing bits too. The new track is called ‘Doing It Too’, taken from the sure-to-be brilliant album ‘Through
-
One of the tried and tested answers to the lack of money bands get from streaming is ‘play more shows’, under the assumption that gigs are the last vestige of earning for any small group out there. Of course, there’s a raft of costs involved in travelling with a show and touring is not cheap.
-
Another day, another band leaving Spotify. If this is a sign of things to come, it’s worth pointing out that this is very embryonic at the moment, with most artists remaining on the service – but there does seem to be something in the air. King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard are the latest group
-
Bob Dylan is pretty tight-lipped mostly, and when answering questions, prefers to be on the side of cryptic. It is fair to say that he’d rather let his music do the talking, which is probably why fans read so much into his songs. With that, for the first time in years, he’s opened his set
-
It is fair to say that Wolf Alice’s new album is pretty keenly anticipated, and they’ve got a new song out which is only going to add to any excitement from their fans. In fact, we’d suggest that the latest one might be the pick of the crop. It’s called ‘White Horses’ and it’s a

Disclosure are always a whole load of fun when they’re collaborating with guest vocalists, and now they’ve dropped a track with Anderson Paak, which makes a lot of sense and we’re surprised it hasn’t happened before. With that in mind, it seems like this one has been on the boiler for a while. The group

You may know Jehnny Beth from Savages, but now, we’re dealing with a solo record which goes by the name of ‘High Resolution Sadness’, and it is absolutely brutal and needs to be played loud enough to leak out of your headphones on the bus. This is from Beth’s second solo album, ‘You Heartbreaker, You’, which is
-
What do you do when you’ve amassed an adoring, fevered set of fans and you need to occasionally tell them off? It’s something we’ve seen with Chappell Roan, and so too, with Ethel Cain, who is an underground sensation, now gently bursting overground. Before you even get to the music, you’re aware that there’s been
-
Is it Nu Balearica? Is it Nu Age music? Whatever it is, there’s been a spurt in creativity in good vibe music that doesn’t make the demands off anyone as a listener, but is spiritually nourishing and washes over you with that good time feeling. As young DJs and dancers have found a parallel lane

There’s something very wholesome and pure about Saint Etienne. That’s not to say they’re weedy nerds or anything, but their love of pop is an admirable thing, so the mere mention of them makes you feel all gooey, and that’s to be celebrated. So with that, they’ve shared a new song called ‘Take Me To

PORTABLE RADIO PREORDERS ARE LIVE
The new album from the clearly brilliant Portable Radio – who released new single ‘I Feel Like A Dog’ last week – have announced that their new LP ‘Counting To Three’ is available for presale on Where It’s At Is Where You Are recordings. On lovely red vinyl for the LP enthusiasts and of course,…

NANCY SINATRA RARE STUFF & DEMOS
The good folks over at Light In The Attic have just announced a Nancy Sinatra rarities compilation that’s due out in October, which is great news for anyone with ears! It’s called ‘Keep Walkin’: Singles, Demos & Rarities 1965-1978′ and is more archival work following from the ‘Start Walkin” comp they put out a couple…

UNHEARD PRINCE IS GO!
Since Prince’s untimely passing, the infamous Paisley Park vaults have been prepped to treat us fans with new and unheard bits and thanks to a new super deluxe version of ‘Diamonds and Pearls’, we’re being gifted two things to listen to and honestly, it’s all very exciting and very nerdy. So what have we got?…

FÖLLAKZOID WITH A BIG TECHY WHUMPER
We don’t know a huge amount about Föllakzoid so we looked them up. They’re Chilean, they’ve collabed with Atom™ and J Spaceman from Spiritualized, and most importantly, have a new and huge techno whumper out called ‘V-II’. Apparently, this is the first new music in quite a few years and there’ll be an album out…
