Fresh from a run of live dates alongside Jamie Webster, Manchester indie trio Bank Holiday arrive with the kind of debut single that feels less like a first step and more like a statement of intent. Released on 27th May, ‘Out Of The Blue’ is a radiant, guitar-driven introduction to a band already sounding remarkably assured in their identity. Built on shimmering riffs, punchy percussion and a grounding bassline, the track channels the spirit of ‘90s alt-rock through a modern

In the lineage of sharply observed British indie songwriting, Crawford Mack’s latest single “Don’t Play The Victim” lands with a grin and a raised eyebrow. The Glaswegian songwriter’s newest offering dismantles masculine self-mythology with wit, precision and a keen sense of theatre, following a parade of men who mistake entitlement for individuality. Mack’s writing has always thrived in the space between personal confession and social commentary, but here he finds a particul

DJZEPiC continues to refine his formula of funk-laced house and disco-inspired euphoria with 'i GOT A FEELiNG', a single that feels tailor-made for sunset sets, packed dancefloors, and feel-good festival moments alike.

Some songs arrive carrying more than a melody. They arrive with history attached to them - fragments of past selves, unfinished conversations, and questions that have only become more relevant with time. For Labrador Labratories, ‘Coded to be Free’ feels like exactly that kind of return: not a comeback built on nostalgia, but a thoughtful reintroduction from a band revisiting their origins through a contemporary lens. The story behind Labrador Labratories has always occupied

Few producers in modern electronic music navigate the intersection of heavy music and dancefloor energy as confidently as Mazare.

There's something refreshing about the way Charlie McDonald approaches songwriting. On his debut EP Things I've Never Said, the London/Paris-based artist doesn't try to dress up his emotions in grand metaphors or dramatic production tricks.

There’s something refreshing about a band that doesn’t seem particularly interested in fitting neatly into a box, and that’s exactly what makes Heavy Set Woman such an intriguing listen. The project, led by longtime collaborators William Serralles and Gumpi Falcon, has always followed its own creative instincts, and their latest single, ‘Highway One’, feels like another confident step down a road they’re happily paving for themselves. From the outset, ‘Highway One’ has the en

Country Love Song feels like it exists slightly outside of time. Kevin Farge has built an album that moves like memory itself; fluid, non-linear, and illuminated by sudden flashes of clarity. From the opening stretch, there’s a sense of place that never fully leaves. The Costa Rican setting isn’t just backdrop; it’s embedded in the texture of the music. You hear humidity in the air between notes, and distance in the way melodies echo outward. Farge’s songwriting thrives in em

2ŁØT have released their latest single 'I Hurt Myself Again', a reflective and slow-building track that continues to expand the emotional scope of their forthcoming album 'RE/SOLVE'. Built around a looping two-chord structure first developed during a 2025 writing retreat at Matt Sorum’s Palm Springs studio, the song leans into restraint rather than immediate release. Sparse rhythms and layered production create an atmosphere that mirrors the track’s central theme: the way mem

Blues-rock albums often lean heavily on mythology - the lone guitarist, the endless highway, the tortured authenticity narrative. Break My Chains brushes against some of those ideas, but Alex Kilroy consistently pulls the music back toward something more personal and grounded. That perspective likely comes from the unusual path behind the album. Kilroy’s story has already become part of the conversation surrounding the record: the childhood in Transylvania, the American flag

The Songs of Butler & Cupples continue to defy easy categorisation with the release of ‘Frequency’, a bold and immersive new single that further cements the duo’s reputation for pushing songwriting beyond conventional genre boundaries.

Recorded live in a single take at MONA in Hobart with the full band performi

“Red, dead Ladybugs,” the latest single from Rudi Burke, operates within a familiar indie-folk framework but distinguishes itself through its deliberate pacing and thematic restraint. Positioned as the lead preview of his debut album Beauty Left Within, the track leans heavily on mood rather than structural innovation. At its core, the song is minimal: acoustic instrumentation, a measured tempo, and a vocal performance that prioritizes emotional immediacy over technical preci
