There’s not many more big albums coming out in 2013, now that Christmas is officially upon us and the music industry starts to focus on stocking-filler releases, but one LP I’ve had my eye on for a while is TOY’s Join The Dots. Their self-titled debut album turned out to be one of my favourites […]
They got a lot of bad press for cancelling gigs in favour of hitting the studio, but today Death Grips have repaid their fans faith and then some with the free release of new album Government Plates. The release follows their two 2012 albums The Money Store and No Love Deep Web – the album […]
You may remember I featured London-based psych-experimentalists Gentlemen’s ‘Children Of The Setting Sun’ in a recent New Music Roundup. Today they have made the EP that song is taken from available to stream online. The EP is called ‘Night Reels I’ and as well as ‘Children Of The Setting Sun’ it features other promisingly titled […]
Since his first album under the Blood Orange moniker – 2011’s Coastal Grooves – the multi-talented Dev Hynes has become an in-demand songwriter, providing smooth and groovy tunes for the likes of Solange and Sky Ferreira. Next week he is releasing his second Blood Orange album, Cupid Deluxe, which comes with an impressive looking list […]
Just in time for the weekend! The always engaging and occasionally reliable MIA has today made her new album Matangi available to stream online ahead of its release next week. Matangi is MIA’s fourth studio album, and the follow-up to her divisive 2010 LP MAYA. It features previously released tracks ‘Bad Girls‘, ‘Bring The Noize‘, […]
It’s finally happened! I’ve been holding out on mentioning the all-pervasive multi-media behemoth that is GTA 5, but I can’t resist any longer. Not when they’re throwing out cool stuff like this! Below is the full stream of Flying Lotus’ specially curated ‘radio station’ for the game – called FlyLo FM – featuring lots of […]
Thanks to a steady stream of singles, videos and festival shows over the past year or so it feels like LA siblings HAIM have been around for ages. In actual fact, they haven’t even released their debut album yet. That’s all about to change next week when the long-awaited LP – Days Are Gone – […]
After lead singer Daniel Blumberg left earlier this year things didn’t look good for London-based fuzz-rockers Yuck. But since his departure (to form new band Hebronix) Yuck have regrouped and, with guitarist Max Bloom taking up vocal duties, sound better than ever. They’ve already shared the aptly-titled new track ‘Rebirth‘ as well as the brilliant […]
Forget Jay Z’s Holy Fail, Yeezus and the rest, there’s only one hip-hop album worth getting excited about in 2013 – Event 2 by the mighty hip-hop triumvirate of Del Tha Funky Homosapien, Dan The Automator and Kid Koala – collectively known as Deltron 3030. Back in 2000 they released an awesome futuristic self-titled concept […]
It’s fair to say the New Zealand singer-songwriter Lorde has been the breakout hit of 2013. Her singles ‘Tennis Court’, ‘Team‘ and ‘Royals’ have pretty much dominated summer playlists and the precocious 16 year old has found herself playing at festivals all over the world. Not bad for someone without an album to her name! […]
