WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
Cami Layé Okún is one of the finest and funnest DJs around right now. Playing music from Cuba (and elsewhere, but you need a hook, right?) she’s all about that rhythm and sunshine melody! This is not so much a piece where we need to write a great deal – basically, go follow her on…

Hip hop has found itself in a funny place lately. Everyone’s broke. There’s been a pandemic. Energy bills are out of control. Prices are going up. It’s difficult to listen to someone talk about how many millions they’ve got hanging off their wrist. It’s tough to stomach listening to someone complain about how lonely they…

Have you heard of Michael Rault? Well, there’s a good chance he released the finest LP of 2022, if you’re into perfect pop that’s cut with all good things like West Coast 70s music, Paul McCartney’s Wings, ELO (aka Beatles: The Musical), Harry Nilsson etc. If you need more modern recommendations, then file Michael Rault…

NEW HAIM
Haim have a new song out and, honestly, it sounds just like a Haim track. We mean that in the nicest possible way, as it’s filled with fun, harmonies and groovy business. It’s the group’s first new music since 2023, and it is called ‘Relationships’ and honestly, they’re famous enough that they don’t need our…

MARK FRY / NEW ACID FOLK
Anyone who has heard ‘Dreaming With Alice’ will no doubt have lost their damn minds thinking about how incredible ‘Mandolin Man’ is – one of the greatest acid-folk tracks of a generation, and seemingly one of those songs recorded by someone who didn’t get a fair crack, and lost to the midsts of time. Well,…
