WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
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…

In 1984, legendary alternative pop show The Tube decided to go to Berlin to see what was happening. The Cold War was looming large and the hipsters were out en masse – some of them dressing up like the Gestapo and vicars, as well as the classic Goth Punk looks of the time. Muriel Gray…

It is so nice to hear some music that is influenced by psychedelic music, but doesn’t lean wholly on that fuzz pedals and drone stuff that most gravitate toward. We geddit. We like Suicide and the Velvets too. And so, to Eggs On Mars. They’ve decided that instead of black denim jackets and Chelsea boots,…

ST CHARLES SQUARE // BLUR
Not long ’til Blur are playing to a packed out Wembley, and reminding everyone that you can be really English while not being a gammon. With that, they’ve dropped another song from their forthcoming LP and it’s called ‘St Charles Square’ and reminds us of the eponymous LP with a healthy dollop of Modern Life…

LISTEN TO MORT GARSON (THERE’S A NEW THING)
You may have heard the brilliant Plantasia LP by Mort Garson – a gorgeous analogue synth LP designed to help your houseplants grow from 1976 – and if you have and get rightly excited about such things, there’s some good news! A new collection of his music is due out next month and it’s called…

PROOF THAT THE UNIVERSE PREFERS BASS PLAYERS
Get ready for the most satisfying phrase you’ll hear in 2023. Astronomers have been looking toward space, as they are want to do, and have noticed something super cool. They’ve been using their ears as well as their eyes, and have found a magic thing. A cosmic bass note. If you’ve ever ingested any kind…

CHEMICAL BROTHERS WHEEL OUT ANOTHER PSYCH DOOF-DOOFER
When you’re in the mood for some swirling psychedelia to accompany some arse-quaking 4/4s, there’s no-one able to scratch that itch quite like the Chemical Brothers. And honestly, there’s not many in the electronic field who have managed to maintain a career like they have, so they probably don’t need much help from tiny music…
