Track: Blood Sport release new track Palomar, plus album news
When I came to Sheffield, I got told that people had said it was the largest village in the country. This (for those that don’t know) is one of the biggest cities in the country. Rubbish I thought on arriving here, but since then I have found it to be one of my favourite cities …
See: Editors reveal new video for Formaldehyde, plus November tour news
Sometimes, as much as I love music, the way things look is the thing that makes them beautiful. When I was at University I had a poster of (this might seem a little sad) Edvard Munch‘s The Scream. To me it was scary and comical and cool and meaningful and, well, just brilliant. He himself …
Track: Son of Dave – new single and kickstarter campaign
Audiences like their blues singers to be miserable, so said Janis Joplin, before she went ahead and gave her audiences the blues by administering a reportedly strong batch of heroin into her own veins and promptly passing away. But Blues audiences have never really seen anything like Benjamin Darvill, a.k.a. Son of Dave. Although he’s …
New Music: Seawaves – Born To Fly
I’ve just come back off holiday. I went to the little Channel Island of Alderney. It’s this small bit of rock, where everything happens, well, whenever. I sort of love the Island and its charms, but one of the thing i don’t like, even a little bit, is getting there. Firstly, I had to fly …
Track: Years & Years – Traps
I reckon pretty much everyone tries a diet at sometime in their life. Whether that’s because they want to get smaller, or more muscle-bound, or fit into a particular dress or something, we all try it. I had a friend, this huge Tuba player we called Tiny, who went on a diet. Cut out all …
Track: Aiden Grimshaw – The Way We Are Free Download
There was this lad at my school called Tom. I didn’t even know him that well, only enough to nod to really, but I think at the time I almost wanted to be him. He had cool clothes, was captain of the school football team, had the latest haircuts and the girls crowded around him, …
Track: Konata – This is the Life
I’ll keep it brief, because time is short, and you should be listening to music out in the balmy summer evening, possibly with this on the stereo – the self-proclaimed ‘rebirth of Calypso’ from London’s Trinidad & Tobago born (damn it, he used to play the trumpet in the national youh orchestra there!) Konata Alleyne, …
Track: Rizzle Kicks – Lost Generation remix, plus new video
Alright then. We’re going to take this in reverse order. First up, DJs and studio partners Max Sanna and Steve Pitron have remixed Rizzle Kicks’ latest single “Lost Generation”, working their usual “club mix” magic (as purveyed for the likes of Jessie J, Sugababes, Robbie Williams and The Wanted) turning a “poppy hip-hop summer jam …
See: Fake Club release new video for Beauty Queen
We served notice about All-girl London five-piece Fake Club about a month ago when they first released current single “Beauty Queen”. Well now they’ve put out a video for it. It’s everything that you should expect: fast-paced, in-your-face, brash and ballsy, and cut up with unhealthy doses of pop and TV culture. The live sections were …
Track: Vandetta – Fly
The most important thing about a DJ is his voice. Her in Britain there’s two distinctive sorts of DJ; those that are interested in he music, and those that are interested in themselves. It’s quite easy to spot them – generally the former are on in the evenings, and the latter inhabit the daytimes. It’s …
