I have been listening to music since I can remember: every genre, every artist, every edgy and niche subculture.
I am a great listener: I take pride in discovering unheard gems, trying to connect with their authors.
It never gets old, really… somehow, music keeps hypnotising us, surprising us, always, always offering something new. Must be some sort of magic.
We have been following JesseMelancholy for a while now, and we are always impressed by his ability to pack songs with immense emotional energy and furious poignancy. We don’t want to use the word emo, but in fact, that’s how the listening experience often unfolds. Hailing from Australia, the young creative has been enjoying a […]
‘The Singing Horn’ is one of the most unique and distinct records we have ever come across. Penned by hornist and folk singer Mary Beth Orr, the album takes a dualistic approach, blending Orr’s classical influences as a french horn player, and her luscious, evocative vocal tone. It’s a curious pairing, one that appears to […]
The music scene in Nigeria has been bubbling for a long time now, and its impact on African culture and the wider global landscape is undeniable. That’s why we’re motivated to share MOSES.’s Incredible music with you all. Hailing from Enugu, Nigeria, the talented songstress champions a unique blend of neo-soul and afrobeat, making for […]
A record that benefits greatly from its rebellious, furious lyrical ethos, ‘Click. Swipe. Buy.’ showcases the observant nature of London-based punk rock outfit Splinter. Obsessing about the decaying reality around them, the talented band seeks a way to warn fellow humans about the dangers and pitfalls of an overconsumeristic society. Drenched in independence and moral […]
Upon hearing ‘Wanna Dance’, we couldn’t in fact refrain from… dancing. You see, the record is incredibly groovy and infectious, a slice of retro-flavoured house euphoria that’s engaging and uplifting. In fact, there’s a certain jackin’ house character in it, taking us back to house music’s golden era in the late 80s and early 90s, […]
‘Nice 2 Meet Me’ marks our point of entry into GeneviveUnseen’s artistic universe. It’s a place that’s rather kaleidoscopic and bold, with the UK-based, South-African songstress showcasing her electronic, dance-inducing flair that’s hard to resist. Couple it with the project’s sharp, unapologetic lyricism, and you’ve got an intense, striking creative formula. Latest effort ‘Nice 2 […]
The keen reader will gladly remember Allan Jamisen. Writing about ‘Rise Above’ just over a month ago, we celebrated it as “a nugget of earthy, gloomy rock fuzziness with a certain theatrical flair in it”. We stand by our words; Jamisen carries the kind of charisma that’s hard to come by, boasting a vocal tone […]
We had a peek into LX8’s creative universe back in 2024, celebrating past single ‘Quantum Blue’ as a “dreamy and hypnotising EDM anthem”. We stand by our words; the London-based artist has certainly acquired a knack for evocative, dance-flavoured records, often steeped in an expansive and hypnotic trance character. That was certainly the case for […]
It’s been a while since we heard from Golem Dance Cult. We last wrote about the Australia-based outfit in June 2024, celebrating ‘Feels Like Tuesday (Deja Vu)’ as a “hypnotic and immersive sonic experience”, one tinted in brooding and haunting tones. We stand by our words; the project is rather mysterious and eerie, touching spiritual […]
A charmingly nostalgic album, ‘Dichotomy’ takes us back to the golden era of American hip-hop, with a series of old-school sonic nuggets that are a joy to listen to. There’s a bit of everything in it; guided by the expert hands of San Diego-based producer Tranzformer and London-based American producer Big O, the record is […]
A rising icon in the underground (and not-so-underground) electronic scene, DJ, producer and creative BIIANCO has recently unveiled their latest effort, a hard dance cut setting the dancefloor ablaze. Taking inspiration from the seminal Da Hool’s anthem ‘meet her at the love parade’, the London-based artist sets out to release their own version of it. […]
Often characterised as a retro-pop artist, Goldie Scott has simply embraced aural nostalgia, framing it all into an alluring musical package that’s ironically modern. ‘Die To Lose You’ is the perfect evidence of that. Echoing Amy Winehouse’s malleable vocals together with a strikingly soulful, bluesy pop outlook, the song showcases the fierce and melancholic artistic […]
