WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
No, this isn’t bait – gifted MC Leikeli47 told everyone a while ago that she would be removing the mask and just being herself for the next stage of her career. She’s done exactly that in the release of the new track from the new LP. The new album is called ‘Lei Keli ft. 47 /…

New band time! They’re called Düül Suns which, with a name like that, you’d expect to be a bunch with a decent record collection or something, including some experimental German music from the ’70s. Well, these are a bunch of lads from New York and while it’s not space music, it is psychedelic. A bit…

Nu Jazzers BADBADNOTGOOD are back, and once again we’re pleased to announce, they’re noodling. It’s a groovy affair and if you already like the group, you’re not going to be disappointed here. They’ve teamed up with singer VCR, who says: “This is more than a song to me – it’s a milestone.” Big talk. We…

It might feel a bit on the nose, what with her surname being ‘Haha’, but Gelli Haha wants to remind you that, despite all the ills of the world, you’re still allowed to have fun, dance in your underpants at home, and that giddy pop dance music is still on the menu. Now, it’s not…

Alison Goldfrapp is one of our most cherished artists, from her work with Orbital in the ’90s, to being a one-woman Electro Glam stomper, to dancefloor queen and witchy, pagan folkie too! She’s just terrific. The good news is that she’s got a new LP coming out in August and it is called ‘Flux’. The…

We genuinely think there’s an argument for Bone Thugs-N-Harmony being the most underrated hip hop group ever. Hugely popular of course, and massively influential, but they’re criminally overlooked in a lot of Hall of Fame chat, for our money. In better news, they’ve just released a new single called ‘Aww Shit’, and even better is…

We’re not trying to be That Guy by getting excited about a DJ playing vinyl and mixing manually, but it is a treat when someone does a cool set the old way. There’s nothing wrong with the USB stick crew, but allow us to feel nostalgic. With that, we just finished listening to a brilliant,…

We’re forever rooting for Kacey Musgraves as she’s just about the freshest voice in country music at the moment, and seemingly is unafraid to march to the sound of her own drum, where a lot of other country musicians bind themselves with musical conservatism. Well, Kacey has signed to Lost Highway Records which has relaunched,…

We have been incredibly lazy when it comes to reminding ourselves to share the tracklisting from the FREE RANGE radio show. We plain forgot that it was a piece of admin we used to do, until we were reminded by a listener. So with that, here’s the latest show for May 2025, featuring a lot…

Jorja Smith has committed herself, it seems, to do whatever the hell she wants, and we’re absolutely strapped in for the ride. From dreamy R&B, to killer UK Garage appearances, and now, absolutely filthy bassline music. To get you up for the weekend, here’s her new track ‘The Way I Love You’, which will punch…
STOP HOARDING TUNES

ARTISTS SAYING ‘NO’ TO TOURING // IS TOURING ALL THAT?
Miley Cyrus has spoken about her new LP to Vogue, and said something rather interesting about it. Basically, that she doesn’t want to tour. She said that “singing for hundreds of thousands of people isn’t really the thing that I love.” She added: “It’s been a minute. After the last [headline arena] show I did,…

Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan
The third album from Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan (best band name in the world, incidentally) is afoot, so if you’re into glacial atmospherics, gorgeous fonts and retro-futurist ambient electronic music, you’re in luck! ‘Districts, Roads, Open Space’ is a soundtrack to the inside of your head while thinking about concrete and council hallways. Smarter people…

NEW DOT ALLISON
Dot Allison, who heads will know from being in One Dove and generally being ace, has new music out. The song is called ‘Unchanged’ and is taken from forthcoming long-player ‘Consciousology’ which will be released on July 28th. The LP features Andy Bell – former Ride guy, Oasis man, not him from Erasure [delete as…

NEW NXWORRIES THEN
NxWorries – that’s one part Anderson .Paak and one part Knxwledge, shaken vigorously and served over ice – have shared their first song of 2023, which happens to be from the forthcoming LP that’ll be released on Stones Throw. ‘Daydreaming’ is the usual smooth-ass R&B which we all like, and comes with a video that was made…
