A little while ago, there was a spate of records and acts that were kinda miserable, but anthemic with it. It wasn’t exactly Grunge 2.0, but emotional lyrics and crunchy guitars were definitely back. One of the better artists from this period was Soccer Mommy, who as it happens, is back with a new song!…

Vince Guaraldi’s work with the soundtrack on the Peanuts cartoons is rightly the stuff of legend. Achingly cool and whistleable jazz, bopping away under the utterly charming and razor sharp voice work from the Shultz created characters, which obviously include Snoopy and the mighty Charlie Brown. Re-discovered in the vaults is the somewhat timely ‘You’re…

A lovely little Detroit one-two here from Babyface Ray, featuring Veeze. Babyface has a new album this week called ‘The Kid That Did’ which we’re looking forward to hearing. In advance, you can listen to ‘Wavy Navy University’, which is a psychedelic take on trap-hop. Big Sean, Pusha T and G Herbo count themselves as…

We’ve all melted with pleasure that all those years ago, Mort Garson got his synths out and created ‘Plantasia’ – a record to soothe your houseplants. If you wished there were more records like this, welcome to Olive Ardizoni’s relatively recent work – ‘Six Songs For Invisible Gardens’. Under the name Green-House, this is the…

We all know that when Drugdealer release new music, it’s worth paying attention if you like ’70s West Coast music. Of course, Drugdealer are channelling all the good stuff from that decade, and there’s a new song doing exactly that. It’s called ‘The News’, is hooky and has a mellow chug which is always nice,…
