WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
You think synthpop and [insert]wave might be done and dusted, but then someone releases a single and it all comes flooding back, and just why you love analogue synths and ’80s arpeggio basslines so much. And so, to Michelle Sara’s new single – ‘Forever’ – which is a slow, bubbling thing which really ticks the…

If you know Aldous Harding, you probably already love her and that headline is of absolutely zero surprise to you. That said, this won’t stop us from getting all excited about new music and sharing it. This new one is a gorgeous piece of music that drops into a lovely little groove and we don’t…

We’ve featured Green-House on our pages a couple of times now, and we’re thrilled to share even more music as we’re completely rapt. They have a new album coming out on Ghostly International and to celebrate that, a second single has been issued which we’re completely in love with called ‘Under The Oak’. The new…

Things appear online and you just have to admire people’s ability to find stuff and share it with everyone without wanting recompense. Here then, we have one of the finest videos we’ve seen – a funk, gospel and soul revue from 1970 which stars Tina Turner, Five Stairsteps, Edwin Hawkins Singers, The Isley Brothers, The…

We are big fans of PinkPantheress here, and her album ‘Fancy That’ has rightly got a shedload of plaudits and enthusiasts. And then came the remixes, which were also a whole load of fun too! Well, now there’s a Four Tet remix which is a energetic little affair and not two artists we’d immediately put…

You need to be on the ball to keep up with JME as he doesn’t really do things like anyone else. Name another MC that stopped performing while they made money selling hoverboards. Right. Well, he’s put out a new hot banger, and he’s all out of track names. No fuss, no drama, no promo…
-
Fun, wholesome albums are hard to get behind a lot of the time, because they can sound insincere and wishy-washy in an environment where pop is required to be overtly sexy or have some kind of grievance. However, with Hilary Duff’s new album, she’s super easy to root for. She’s embraced the memes, she’s nostalgia…

Did you hear that Gnarls Barkley are getting back together and releasing their final LP? You probably did. Well, if you heard and just want to listen to the new track from CeeLo Green and Danger Mouse, scroll down. If you didn’t hear the news, the album will be called ‘Atlanta’, and it’ll be out March 6th,…

Tom Jenkinson AKA Squarepusher is releasing a new record which will be his SIXTEENTH release – impressive stuff. Of course, you can hear a new song from it below to whet your whistle while you wait for the whole thing. The album is called ‘Kammerkonzert’ and is out on April 10th on Warp. While you may…

It can be a heavy thing carrying a famous name, and that’s what the Womack Sisters have to deal with, what with them being the nieces of the legendary Bobby, BG, Zeimani, and Kucha Womack respectively. The girls have signed to Daptone and have a new single out called ‘You Went Away Too Long’, which…

SUKI WATERHOUSE’S SLEAZE GLAM
Models and music doesn’t always go, so it is really nice when it works. With that, Suki Waterhouse has signed to Island Records and released a new single which is a slow burning, sleazy, glammish thing, which we’re always in the market for. The song is called ‘Back in Love’ and of course, you can…

PAUL MCCARTNEY AND THE BOYS OF DUNGEON LANE
Well, we were halfway there. The cat is now out of the bag, and Paul McCartney has announced his 18th solo album, The Boys of Dungeon Lane. The album is out in May, and the track listing is already on Spotify etc. And better yet, there’s a nostalgic, pleasant song to listen to as well,…

BRAND SPANKER FROM GELLI HAHA
Gelli Haha‘s ‘Switcheroo’ LP was a whole bundle of fun and something we played a lot last year. She’s got a new song out, which is great news as it might mean a new album is on the way for 2026! The new single is called ‘Klouds Will Carry Me To Sleep’ and happily, it’s…

COUNTRY JOE MCDONALD IS GRIMLY PRECIENT
Country Joe McDonald passed away last week, leaving us remembering his biggest known hot – ‘I Feel Like I’m Fixin’ To Die Rag’ – feeling horribly topical. See, while a lot of anti-war songs are serious, sombre affairs, Joe’s was deeply sarcastic and intentionally fun to singalong with. As the US indulges itself with yet…
