WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
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
-
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

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

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 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

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

RATBOYS BRING THE GOOD COUNTRY
There’s always a resurgence of Good Country and Americana when the USofA is in turbulent times. Lines are drawn, and Bad Country will focus on tired, conservative issues (in some cases, siding with literal baddies and idiots, becoming Cringe Edgelords: The Musical), giving the good heads something to kick against. We’ve had a ’70s country…

TAYLOR SWIFT AMBIVALENCE IS OKAY
Ambivalence in pop, rock and everything else, is not often spoken about. And why would it? Barely summoning a feeling about something is not something you can really crow or cry about, because in it’s place, is an uninterested shrug. It’s not being above anything – it’s literally a magnolia painted wall in a flat…

REST WELL, ROBBIE ROBERTSON
The thing with The Band is that they seemed to land perfectly formed. Are there many better debut albums than ‘Music From The Big Pink’? As well as spearheading the revival of rootsy Americana, which is no mean feat in itself, to find yourself there when Dylan was called “Judas!”, Robbie Robertson lived enough for…

RODRIGUEZ / RIP
Detroit psychedelic legend, Sixto Rodriguez has sadly passed away. The news was confirmed across social media – he was 81 years old. In a very simple message, a note read: It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of our Legend, Rodriguez. Most people will know the songwriter from his song ‘Sugar Man’…
