WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
We’ve featured Dora Morelenbaum on these pages before so we’re excited to share that she has her debut LP coming out soon! With a mix of bossa, samba and psych, Dora’s music has showcased her to be one of the most exciting new Brazilian artists in the scene. The new album is called ‘Pique’ and…

Outside of Japan and Korea, everything is a little bit Solo Artist, so it’s lovely to see the flame of girl groups still being carried by FLO who have been doing good bits for a while now with their brand of R&B infused pop music. They recently shared their new track ‘Check’ which they have…

We appreciate that some people like it when rock and rap mix. There’s no accounting for taste and all that, but the nadir of the late ’90s and early ’00s when Woodstock went from a peace and love festival and turned into an awful frat house party filled with rap-rock groups shows just how dismal…
-
Britney Spears has, shall we say, had a very full life. It hasn’t all been peaches and cream, which means news that her life will be getting the biopic treatment is tentatively good news. We say it tentatively because not all biopics are good, but we are 100% rooting for this one because we think…

It all felt somewhat inevitable that young people would look at the streaming model and wonder why they didn’t have anything to show for their money. Obviously, the convenience of having most of the world’s music in your pocket is a miracle of a thing, but when you look around your room or your house…

Look, the rap musical Hamilton was awful. You don’t need to point out how successful it has been, how Lin Manuel Miranda is probably a nice guy, or even how much you liked it – it stunk. One dimensional rapping over old-head beats performed by a cast portraying a bunch of racist white dudes who…

We were reading about tg.blk over at another site and liked what we heard. Instead of hoarding this information to ourselves, we thought we would share it here, because that’s what good people do. Seriously – stop hoarding music to yourself – nobody wins when you do that. tg.blk have a new six track EP…

Doechii has called herself a number of things over the years – the one we like best is “the trap Grace Jones” – and if that’s piqued your interest, shall we get onto the lovely business of a new record to listen to? She’s got a new one out called ‘Nissan Altima’, which to the…

It is kinda funny that Charli XCX announced BRAT SUMMER when Confidence Man have been acting up for ages now, sneering and partying like the world might end tomorrow. With that, they’ve got a new song out called ‘SO WHAT’ which is the usual mixture of pouting and hedonism which is difficult to pull off…
-
After a well advised name-change, The Blessed Madonna has a new track out and it sounds like a weekend banger to us. It is called ‘Godspeed’ and features DJ E-Clyps. Very nice. The Blessed Madonna will be releasing her first full length LP and that’ll drop in October so we’ve a while to wait yet.…
STOP HOARDING TUNES

KINKS TEA
You’ve heard ‘Afternoon Tea’ by The Kinks, right? You should’ve as it’s great. Obviously, since the band were stopped from entering the United States for a host of reasons, where the soft Yanks would have such hooligans in town while Woodstock was on, The Kinks leaned into their Englishness. The albums during that period were…

FREE RANGE / BEST OF 2025
That’s it – we’ve basically completed 2025, so save a few surprise drops, all we have to do now is dig into Christmas music and familiar party songs on the work’s do and down the local. It’s good stuff, whether you celebrate god or not. You’ve read the round-up of songs, now it is time…

DAWN RICHARD REMAINS UNIQUE
R&B is obviously a much more broad church than people give the genre credit for, but it almost seems unfair to brand Dawn Richard’s music that tag. And she’s at it again, being one of the most unique and interesting artists around right now. “The track is the kind of confidence that only I can…

GET ON TTWIG’S PYSCH DREAM
There’s a lot of stuff knocking around passing itself off as psychedelic music these days with little more than a wibbly synth and a gentle fuzz guitar. That means, when something genuinely psychedelic crops up, you need to hold it close and give it water and attention. With that, we go to the magical sound…
