Hailing from London, Don Bonya shares encouraging words about his latest release, ‘Unchangeable’, through his press release: “I admire artists who constantly push the envelope with their productions, and this track definitely seems to be doing just that”. He’s definitely onto something here, managing to blur the lines between commercial intensity and more leftfield nuances.  […]

Hailing from Ghana, SBL WORLD showcases his reflective yet uplifting afrobeat styling with ‘BadMan’, a track that – although fully contemporary and drenched in electronic tones – fully encompasses tradition with bouncy Ghanaian rhythms and an evocative, anthemic lyricism, the perfect match for SBL WOLRLD’s sharp delivery and charming character.  Self-produced by the artist himself, […]

We have been closely following Calum Ingram’s musical journey over the past few months, slowly gearing up for a new album release. Describing the project as “a unique and quirky style that instantly stands out among a crowded scene”, we were eager to see it fully realise its potential. Finally, the wait is over, with […]

We wrote about Fury of a Dying Planet’s debut effort not long ago, describing ‘Bloodied Fjords’ as “fast-paced rock matter, fuzzy distortion and raucous and fierce vocals, urging everyone to take action now”. Two things were very clear to us at the time: first, this London-based group can play! They are all extremely good musicians. […]

The keen reader might remember Australian singer and songwriter DUEL NATIVE from an interview we did with him some time ago (link below).

A pure, unfiltered love song, the record encapsulates the essence of ‘emotional’ music, evoking a gentle and elegant caress reaching every listener deep in their heart.

Boasting a very liquid, vaporwave-y artwork, ‘Moonlight Shoreside’s sonic qualities perfectly fit such imagery. A dreamy and hazy gem, the track finds its peculiar identity in evocative indie stylings and blissful electronica, leaving also space for a certain ‘poppiness’, something that’s particularly evident in the catchy topline and the relatable vocals.  Preferring clean and laidback […]

‘A Closer View Of My Inner Self’ is a rather emblematic offering. Oscillating between avant-garde electronica, deep ambient soundscapes and free-form jazz stylings, the record showcases itself as an ever-evolving entity, a modulating, liquid body of work which completely hypnotises the listeners. Facilitating a trance-like status, the keen music fan will be hard-pressed not to […]

Channelling 90s and early ‘2000s rock-pop flair (think U2, among others), ‘Perfect Constant’ is the kind of track that’s electrifying yet poignant, built on an emotionally dense wall of elegant distortions, and constantly balancing itself with cleaner, friendlier tones. If the verses indulge in poppy melancholia, the song’s choruses instead reveal MatAre’s real fierce character, […]

Fierce and playful, ‘Show Me The Gold’ is the perfect entry ticket to Holly Roseanna‘s evocative artistry. Balanced between anthemic rock and malleable pop, the record benefits from the contribution of rapper Empress, helping the Scottish songstress achieve a compelling result. Self-produced, the single certainly grabs our attention – and no need for gold this […]

A personal, reflective album, ‘For That Which Now Lies Fallow’ signals Che Arthur’s willingness to share and deal with his internal demons, perhaps hoping to inspire any troubled listener out there.

Introduced by a slow-burn, galloping drum groove and noisy textures, ‘Just Sit There’ gradually evolves into an underrated, groovy blues gem, always keeping distortions in check and empowering sampled spoken vocals. A peculiar musical recipe that’s pretty striking next to steel guitars and poignant piano parts… Spyderhuff are like that – they like to explore.  […]
