WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE

  • NALA SINEPHRO MAKES YOU FLOAT TWO FEET OFF THE GROUND

    More new music which is great that we won’t talk about too much initially, because you can ignore us and just listen to it below. However, for enthusiasm and padding an article out’s sake, Nala Sinephro is fantastic. It’s part ambient, part jazz, all fantastic. It’ll make you feel like you’re in one of those

  • DO YOU FEEL PRICED OUT OF GOING TO GIGS?

    The price of things are going up, but wages aren’t. It’s a thing that always happens when anyone in any position of power naively believes in trickle down economics. The fact is – and we all know this – rich folk like hoarding their money or spending it on themselves. Add a host of other

  • You are 100% supposed to have heard about every single band at all times and every new release and if you don’t I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU HAVEN’T HEARD OF THEM! Of course, that’s nonsense. We just heard about a band from Maastricht called YIN YIN. They’re great. Psychedelic, danceable, very fun indeed. Bet they’re cool

  • The headline is the message. Have a good one. Drink too much and be lazy. Got any Rennies? Love you x

  • FIND IT IN YOUR HEART TO FEEL SORRY FOR DAVID GUETTA

    DJing is hard. For most DJs, there’s no security and a host of very drunk people telling you that they would like you to play something else. You do 5 or 6 hour sets and your knees and back hurt. There’s no groupies, because everyone’s getting off with everyone else while you’re stood in a

  • THE OPPOSITE OF NEWS ABOUT FOALS

    It’s a terrible state of affairs trying to keep your pages fresh with new content, so sometimes, what you have to do is write about literally nothing. That’s exactly what we’re doing here. Don’t complain about feeling short-changed, because we were upfront about this fact. We were upfront about it in the opening paragraph and,

  • MAC DEMARCO IS BACK FOR XMAS

    Mac DeMarco is kinda back. He’s been away you see, after the success of his last LP ‘Here Comes The Cowboy’. That’s what it was called wasn’t it? Pretty sure it was. Anyway, he just wanted to get in the festive mood and remind us that he existed, so he’s knocked out a video for

  • NEPO BABIES, EH?

    Have you heard about ‘Nepo Babies’? It’s not really the best of names for the people who have had a leg-up in their careers thanks to having a famous parent or two (nepotism babies, geddit?), but honestly, you’re not getting any better alternatives here unless something pops into our head while we’re writing this article

  • DIGGA D NEW ONE IS A BIT OF ALRIGHT

    Are you interested in the new one from Digga D? You should be, because it’s a great little track. It’s called ‘Facade’ and it’s one of the crispest tracks we’ve heard in ages. From UK Drill to relative international stardom, the 22 year old is on his fourth project already, and it’s called ‘Back To…

  • LIKE POWER POP? GET THE NEW BALLARD!

    We can never speak for the artist, so it’s always a bit strange likening their music to anyone else’s. However, we’re reasonably confident that saying the new one from Ballard is something of a love letter to Pub Rock a la Nick Lowe, in that it’s goodtime, honest Power Pop, that’s also not afraid to…

  • REVIEW // NONAME / SUNDIAL

    One thing that you can always say about Noname is that she’s not a complacent soul. Self-analytical always, but at the same time, tired of bullshit whichever way it comes. A lot weighs on those shoulders of hers, but her personality is just as playful. There’s a lot of heaviness in the world, and Noname…

  • MARCOS VALLE X ANDY WILLIAMS

    Thanks to Jonny Trunk and his ever gorgeous mailout for alerting us to this delightful clip of a very young Marcos Valle on the Andy Williams show. Of course, Marcos would move away from bossa nova and having short hair, to make a clutch of brilliant psychedelic LPs, before moving into jazz-fusion MPB and all…
