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,…

BRUTALISMUS 3000 SOUND OF A RAVE YOU’RE NOT INVITED TO
Sometimes you hear music and you’re put in mind of some imaginary party that you’re probably not cool enough to be invited to, filled with impossibly thin people in early Noughties tracksuits that you can’t believe are fashionable these days, all cheekbones and bouncing around. Well, electro pop group Brutalismus 3000 made us think of…

REMEMBER THE BOARDS OF CANADA GAME?
We miss the days of frivolous, immersive websites with easter eggs and games and interactive things on them. With that, we remembered the interactive game that featured on the old Boards of Canada site, and thankfully, there’s a document of it! Uploaded to YouTube and featuring the music of BoC – therefore very pleasant indeed…

CORNELIUS WITH A NEW TUNE!
Keigo Oyamada is better known as Cornelius, and he’s one of the most inventive musicians on the planet, and has been for ages. The last thing we wrote about was an absolute gem, and you can hear it here. He’s back with a new tune, to mark the signing to label Eat Your Own Ears…
