WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
Kaytranada and Aminé are a match made in heaven really, so it’s nice that they’re teaming up again (they’ve worked with each other a bunch before) on a project called KAYTRAMINÉ. Initially, we heard about this via a video on Instagram where their names are being presented on a lovely, orange MPC looking thing. Then, there was…

Kanye West is game for dunking on at every opportunity, which in part is richly deserved, but also really depressing. The man needs to be accountable for the things he says and does, but jesus, it’s rotten watching someone be so very ill in public. With that, along comes cringebag no.1, Drake. He shared a…

The latest FREE RANGE show is up and this one is a little chaotic with loads of killer music on it from all over the world. This one has a guest presenter on it which is real fun. You can listen to it below and the tracklist is a little bit below that. FREE RANGE…

Cosmic country pop? Like Gram Parsons but with a will to actually sell some records? Big claim that, but fuck it, let’s go with it. We’re talking about Jenny Lewis, who is a bit of a legend in certain circles, and who has a most excellent wardrobe (stop pretending that this isn’t a thing that…

It’s funny that ageing rockers bemoan the thin-skins of the yoof, while acting like petulant babies all the time, throwing their toys out of the pram and indulging in very ugly, public, hilarious spats. Just look at Pink Floyd. A very dignified set of old men there. With that, we turn our attentions to KISS.…

Keanu Reeves is everyone’s non-problematic fave and generally seems like a good dude. Great face too, if we’re still objectifying people in 2023. You can imagine he’s got a half decent and very sizeable record collection, right? His house is probably dead nice. And we’re only mentioning Wyld Stallyns now to say that we won’t…

We’re not bothering with anything like here, don’t worry. Everything you read today is just a normal story. However, that said, now we’ve drawn attention to it you might think we’ve completely made up our imminent Keanu Reeves piece up, when we haven’t. He’s just that nice.

She’s a DJ, she’s a producer – Jayda G is bring good and hypnotic vibes to make your feet move around wildly and, luckily enough, there’s a new tune out called ‘Blue Lights’ which is really good. There’s a new LP due too, called ‘Guy’, and that’ll be on Ninja Tune, which is a name…

It’s difficult trying to avoid being cancelled when someone keeps getting their breasts out and we, responsible music critics must pretend we haven’t seen the aforementioned breasts. Even if we have noticed the breasts, then we must underline how people should be able to free their breasts for whatever reason they like, because the people…

If you’ve not heard of Immaterial Possession, they’re an odd bunch. That’s a good thing, before you start any of that nonsense. They’ve got a new tune out called ‘Mercy of the Crane Folk’. What’s that about you ask? Well, it’s a song that is apparently a tale about a needy ghost that never gets…

KANYE’S APOLOGY / IS IT REAL THIS TIME?
Kanye West has been going through it. He’s been a piece of shit, and leaned into it. People said it was because he was off his meds. People wondered if he was being an edgelord. They missed the old Kanye, and Ye even joked about that too. For fans, it’s been a rough ride, recognising…

REVIEW / ARI LENNOX / VACANCY
Every so often, in the world of R&B, someone seemingly strips away all the zeitgeisty production and streaming clout grabs, and decides to make a fuckin’ soul album. Sometimes, that translates to a brassy ’60s throwback, and sometimes it’s the echoes of’ 70s Stevie – with Ari Lennox and her new ‘Vacancy’ album, it’s the…

COURTNEY BARNETT BACK AGAIN!
Courtney Barnett is back with a new song and news of a new LP! It’ll be her fourth album and the new song from it features Waxahatchee, and is called ‘Site Unseen’. The album is called ‘Creature of Habit’, and as you’d expect, there’ll be a load of live shows to back it up. Regarding…

Tinariwen have a new album coming out called ‘Hoggar’, which you’ll be able to listen to in full, on March 13th. It has features from Jose Gonzalez too, which is fun!
