WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE

  • KAYTRANADA & AMINÉ

    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

  • DRAKE SEEMINGLY GOADS KANYE WITH KIM SAMPLE AND WE’RE SO TIRED

    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

  • FREE RANGE TRACKLIST APRIL 23

    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 FROM JENNY LEWIS

    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

  • KISS ARE AT EACH OTHER’S ELDERLY THROATS AGAIN

    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.

  • WHICH BAND DOES KEANU LOVE?

    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

  • APRIL FOOL’S DAY

    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.

  • BLUE LIGHTS FROM JAYDA G NOT TO BE MISSED

    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

  • FRIPP & TOYAH HEAVILY FEATURING BREASTS, FOR THE CAUSE

    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

  • PSYCHEDELIC TWANGS WITH IMMATERIAL POSSESSION

    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

  • STEVIE NICKS: ENDURES NOT LIKE OTHERS

    What is it with Stevie Nicks? It doesn’t matter what generation you’re from, you either love her or are witnessing everyone else fall head-over-heels for her. In 2023, there’s scores of young women in floaty clothes twirling around on TikTok or wherever, fuelled by the power of Stevie Nicks. Now, of course, Stevie is made…

  • FRANK OCEAN, MAN, WHAT GIVES?

    Frank Ocean is, occasionally, brilliant. Sometimes, you’ll hear glimpses of something approaching genius – ‘Pink & White’ and ‘Thinking Bout You’ are impossibly wonderful – but he can be frustrating. That’s fine. We allow people to be the artists they want to be, right? Provided of course, we’re allowed to be the fans we want…

  • 420 IS A CROCK, BUT THIS SONG ROCKS (GENTLY)

    We’re not arsed about 4/20, as much as we like shouting ‘BLAZE IT UP’ at the mere mention of it. Anyway, it’s a good excuse to share this song which is very much about weed, because it’s great. If you’re getting stoned today, we hope you have a nice time.

  • LAEL NEALE’S ALBUM SOUNDS GREAT, HONESTLY

    We shared a track from Lael Neale’s new and imminent LP a while ago and got excited about it. There’s been more music since and the newest one is called ‘Must Be Tears’ and we’re now pretty excited about this new album and think it’s going to be ace! Neale’s new LP is called ‘Star Eaters…
