  • CHARLOTTE CORNFIELD HAS A LOVELY NEW ONE OUT

    Cute sunshine pop? We’re always in the market for that! Luckily for us, there’s a new track called ‘Cut And Dry’ by Charlotte Cornfield who we’ll confess that we haven’t heard of before, but this is a very lovely song and we will absolutely be investigating further. It’s the second single off her upcoming LP ‘Could…

  • KEN BRUCE & POPMASTER ARE BACK

    We all love PopMaster, and if you’re not that aware of it, it’s probably because you’re super young and haven’t listened to live radio once in your life – that’s fine and all, but you’ve been missing out. See, Ken Bruce and his lovely, lovely voice have been testing people’s musical knowledge for years and…

  • 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

  • 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…

  • THEPOPCORPS / BEST OF 2025

    What a year it’s been. We’ve have the president of the United States of America calling people names while desperately trying to distance himself from a list of wealthy people who were quite probably up to no good with a convicted sex offender who mysteriously died in custody. We’ve had one billionaire so lonely that…

  • STEVE CROPPER, RIP

    There’s few better and more generous than the MGs, ably backing some of the finest, most iconic hits of any generation. Never hogging the limelight, but vital in its proximity, Steve Cropper and his guitar to make great records, legendary. At the age of 84, he’s left the building. “The Cropper family announces with profound…

  • LAMBCHOP NEW SONG FOR REFUGEES

    There’s a new compilation out to benefit those in need with Western Vinyl called ‘Passages: Artists in Solidarity with Immigrants, Refugees, and Asylum Seekers‘. It’s out Friday and one of the lead artists on it is the always brilliant Lambchop with a song called ‘Afterburner’. Other artists include Tim Heidecker, Bonnie Prince Billy, Dirty Projectors,…

  • DNB VIBE WITH FAUZIA

    The UK underground has been bubbling with drum ‘n’ bass and it’s offshoots for a while now, and some of it is really cool, with a fresh twist on things, like the new single from FAUZIA, called ‘My Way’. You may recognise the name from the long stint with NTS radio, with her long running…
