Reform are on the rise, people's dad's are painting roundabouts and our our public sectors are struggling. It has always been music that has led the charge against these situations, and 2025 is no different.  KC Blackwater's newest single 'Machina Vult' is a politically charged anthem, warning against Andrew Tate and tech oligarchs, in a Kneecap -esque power ballad. They are punk to their core, with furious guitar and thrashing drums, the pace of 'Bad Brains'  and the rage o

Milk & Bone , one of Montreal’s most exciting emerging Electronic Pop duos, released their latest single ‘Hoops’ last month. Part of their upcoming EP, ‘A Little Lucky’ , set to be released in December, ‘Hoops’  is an energising taster of what’s to come. The track has an upbeat and enticing sound from the get-go. With sweeping melodies and a feel-good chorus, ‘Hoops’  delves into late-night confessions of yearning and desire. Produced by Chromeo , the single layers tones and

There is a time in everyone's life when they think about hell, a lot. Maybe you've just got the videos back from a night out, maybe you laughed at a stranger tripping over or maybe, in the case of Bad Self Portraits , it's when you think about what Jesus is doing with his alone time.  The contemplation of this has led, luckily for us, to an Ethel Cain - esque grapple with religion in the form of ' I Think I'm Going To Hell' , the title track off of Bad Self Portraits debut a

Bulgarian Cartrader’s  single ‘Toothpicks’  is a dynamic, layered track from his latest album ‘Greetings from Soulgaria’ . After a long-awaited return, the album dropped on the 10 th  of October and is a whimsical medley that defines Bulgarian Cartrader’s  bold new chapter. Tracks like the electronic slow-builder 'Meditations' and the muted, groove-laden 'Palace Gates' showcase their range and knack for a rounded production, yet 'Toothpicks' is undeniably our favourite.

Indie-Folk songwriter Lucy Spraggan is a 2010's icon. In the midst of featuring on The X-Factor, she landed a Top 40 single with her singalong hit 'Last Night' which encapsulated the chaotic tongue in cheek antics of the Indie scene of the time. Since then she has gone on to release 7 studio albums, selling over 150,000 records. Now, she is returning with her brand new album 'Other Sides Of The Moon' which features reimagined songs from her discography along with new track

At the heart of Manchester’s student bubble, the hustle and bustle of the Saturday night goers-out became a battery, generating an electrical buzz in the air that quickly infected those who were awaiting the coming NewDad  gig, the doors to which were to open imminently. The sun which had long set was unneeded to battle the late-Autumn chill, an exciting warmth befalling the busy and chattering queue, who were gradually amassing outside the venue of the sold out show.  Photo
