Album Review: Bat For Lashes - The Haunted Man

The Haunted Man’s cover art has been generating almost as much hype as the record so it would be amis not to mention it; but hey, check that out in your own time.

Album Review: Ball Park Music - Museum

Museum has seen BPM take pause, explore their sound and find their feet to produce a sophomore release with equal measures of happiness and sorrow… because that’s what happens when you grow up.

Features / Film & TV

"The soundtrack was obviously a very important part of this film as Hunter lived and breathed hip hop. We had such an abundance to choose from with tracks being donated by Drapht, Optamus, Dazastah, Mortar, DJ Vame and more."

Album Review: Melody's Echo Chamber - Melody’s Echo Chamber

Prochet and Parker have together created a lovely record, even if it sometimes struggles to rise above just an echo of something ‘Tamer’.

Album Review: Winter People - A Year At Sea

A Year At Sea is of a calibre rarely seen in debut albums, and easily ranks as one of the best releases of the year for the genre.

Monkey Business

“We play back-to-back, searching for the right track in the right moment. Of course we are working with effects and all this stuff but for us it’s more important to play interesting music with ups and downs during the whole set.”

Album Review: The Domnicks - Super Real

The album’s lyrics are simple rock’n’roll, and dad was, unfortunately, singing along in no time. I must admit, it was infectious.

Features / Music

Although he makes some pretty dark and aggressive grime and dubstep, Tony Cook aka Cookie Monsta tells Tess Ingram that people just need to chill out.

Album Review: Peter Combe - Quirky Berserky (The Turkey From Turkey)

Whilst 78 minutes of hardcore Combe can make even the happiest of adults a bit batty, this album is perfect to share with a new generation of Combe fans or secretly dance to after a rough day. After all, there’s no rush to grow up.
