WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
We’re new to Spacemoth and on the strength of the new track, we’ve been missing out! Spacemoth is actually Maryam Qudus who is out on the West Coast of the US, and is a producer as well as a fine musician. There’s a new album coming out called ‘Inward Eye’ which you can get stuck into…
-
Jasmín is new to us, but we’re always in the market for some heavy techno and dancefloor action, and her new track ‘It’s Girls Night’ caught our attention, being all deep and sophisticated as it is. She’s released this with Fabric Originals and the release – with other tracks we think – will get a…
-
We played ‘Roamer’ by Spill Tab on our latest radio show, and really liked it. Apparently, she’s from Thailand and has relocated to Los Angeles to make some really fun Alt Pop (we’re not entirely sure of the genre there, honestly), with bedroom production DIY chic mixed with some New Wave goodness. Well, we thought…

To simply refer to Asha Bhosle as an iconic singer doesn’t quite capture the influence and reach of her towering voice in Bollywood and Indian culture – she is one of the defining voices of any generation, and she has passed away aged 92. Spanning eight decades, Bhosle recorded tens of thousands of songs and…

One thing that’s really nice about The Lemon Twigs, is just how prolific they are. They always seem to have new music out, which keeps us (and them) entertained. And the quality isn’t letting up, which is pretty remarkable. They have a new LP coming out called ‘Look For Your Mind’ and there’s already singles…

Kelela is back, and it’s a little bit different from the artist you knew. She’s burned down her socials and whatnot, to start afresh, which would point to her releasing a new album, or new ‘era’ if that’s your thing. You can listen to ‘Idea 1’ right now, of which she says is about “what…

The latest radio show is here made by us – FREE RANGE / APRIL 2026 – and there’s loads of good music to be had and listened to for free, because that’s how we do things here, right? No sponsors – do it for the love of the game. There’s music from Trinidad, Brazil, Niger,…

ARE BOARDS OF CANADA COMING BACK?! Look, something is happened, and while you’d be wise to not get too excited, it’s hard not to. They’ve not released anything since 2013 with ‘Tomorrow’s Harvest’, but now, they’ve sent some VHS tapes to some fans and as you’d expect, nothing is clear or straightforward. The people who…

Aldous Harding has released a new track and what we’ve learned from it is, the new album of hers is shaping up to be very, very good indeed. The LP goes by the name of ‘Train on the Island’, and you can hear the whole thing on May 8th. The first single was ‘One Stop’…
-
With Elmiene’s album, Ego Ella May’s new album ‘Good Intentions’ is a gorgeous one-two punch of jazzy R&B goodness. For fans of Gilles Peterson’s radio show, for Sade heads, for Neo Soul crunch types, for anyone looking for music that feels like jazz, but forward faces, Ego Ella May is the artist for you. Raised…

FROM SUPER FURRY TO DAS KOOLIES
Have you heard the acid latest from Das Koolies? If you didn’t know, the Super Furries minus Gruff are making some ace music under this new guise and it’s more synth forward and of course, it’s super fun Welsh psychedelic business as usual! The new track is called ‘Katal’ and comes with Gabe Gurnsey remixes,…

AMERICAN GOTHIC: WEYES BLOOD RETURNS
Weyes Blood is great and, long shot prediction – it’s only a matter of time before some hip director casts her in an indie film, right? Anyway, she’s returned with a new video for the magic ‘Twin Flame’ which you’ll know from her last album, which is brilliant. It’s another ’70s horror affair and it’s…

LOVELY MARGO GURYAN REPRO
If you’ve heard Margo Guryan’s music, then you’re probably already completely head-over-heels with it. Well, if you’ve been eyeing up some vinyl, the fabulous kids over at Numero Uno who can seemingly do no wrong, have something you’ll like! There’s going to be a series of Margo’s music, and the first is a really lovely…

BIG GORGEOUS CSN&Y PHOTOS
You may not have heard of Henry Diltz, but chances are, you’ve seen some of his photos. Diltz was there man, shooting some of the greatest to ever do it, focusing on the assorted crew that hung with Crosby Stills Nash & Young. He’s got a gorgeous new book of photos out called CSN&Y: Love…
