TRACK OF THE DAY: FAIRCHILD – ‘Neighbourhoods’

April 26, 2016April 19, 2017Charlotte HolroydComment(0)

The Aussies with a love for 80’s new wave are back. FAIRCHILD return with a new neon-blaring gem that is set to excite the long summer night’s that await us. The track is ‘Neighbourhoods’, and it teases to a mind that is beseeched with lust for one that should probably be left alone. But like most […]

On Tour With October Drift (Part 1)

April 26, 2016November 6, 2016Charlotte HolroydComment(0)

Somerset noise-makers October Drift have been flying the flag high for independent bands since they formed, be it their relentless commitment to their craft and solid work ethic, it’s hard to not find their passion admirable. The band are no strangers to the live stage, they thrive in performance and live for the thrills of life on […]

TRACK OF THE DAY: ISLAND – ‘Spotless Mind’

April 25, 2016May 27, 2018Charlotte HolroydComment(0)

ISLAND were our favourite new band to appear out of 2015, the Londoners have now returned with the first single of a double release. ‘Spotless Mind’ see’s the band find composure in pensive thought, questioning and pondering the ‘what if’s’.

TRACK OF THE DAY: LYRA – ‘Rabbit In The Headlights’

April 24, 2016April 19, 2017Charlotte HolroydComment(0)

Little is known about the mysterious bride in the photo. Was she abandoned at the alter? Maybe. Has she run away from her wedding? Possibly. Or is this some kind of fairytale, Gothic romance? Most certainly. It’s all up for contention. But let’s leave the matter of the accompanying imagery behind for a moment, and meet […]

TRACK OF THE DAY: Carmody – ‘Skin’

April 22, 2016April 19, 2017Lewis Lloyd-KinningsComment(0)

This an exquisite slice of alt-pop from London based singer-songwriter Carmody. With smooth and emotive Aurora-esque vocals leading from the start, the track slowly builds as the ludicrously on point production spirals around the melodic centre point.

TRACK OF THE DAY: Westerman – ‘Jericho’

April 21, 2016April 19, 2017George RowanComment(0)

It is difficult to pin down exactly what it is that gives Westerman that distinctive haunting sound, but there are qualities to his music which are bewitching and enchanting unlike anything else. Just as you’d expect, his latest release ‘Jericho’ is enchanting, prophetic and divine.

Track of the Day

TRACK OF THE DAY: Yellow Days – ‘Little Palace’

April 20, 2016April 19, 2017Charlotte HolroydComment(0)

Yellow Days defies convention. His compositions drift in and out of formal structures, rather choosing to feel their way, through the yelp’s and calm’s of his disarming vocal call. It’s indie at its most immersive and inventive best, with a soulful twist and the sway of free-form. Not often do we come across such ambition […]

LIVE REVIEW: Braille Showcase at Islington Mill, Salford

April 19, 2016November 6, 2016Jay PlentComment(0)

We encounter a great deal of pop music in our day to day lives. Radio, YouTube, Spotify and TV ads, which bombard us with the sight of delicious food whilst Clean Bandit softly whirl in the background. However, rarely do we get to experience pop music at its absolute freshest, its rawest, and arguably at […]

TRACK OF THE DAY: Inevitable Daydream – ‘Gunblade’

April 19, 2016April 19, 2017Charlotte HolroydComment(0)

London-via-Kent upstarts Inevitable Daydream are making a name for themselves. Already revered in their hometown of Maidstone, the band since re-locating to London have set their sights further afield. And if their latest track is anything to go by, the revolution is imminent. The bloody and charred remains of gnarled refrains and violent feedback make for a […]

TRACK OF THE DAY: Skeleton Frames – ‘Quicksand’

April 18, 2016April 19, 2017Charlotte HolroydComment(0)

Torn between Exeter and Bristol, Skeleton Frames are the newcomers that are set to excite those long summer night’s that await, with their mosh-pit approved first single proper ‘Quicksand’.

LISTEN: Parkwave – ‘Frames’

April 17, 2016April 19, 2017Lewis Lloyd-KinningsComment(0)

Parkwave are an indie-rock band from Italy releasing their debut album ‘Better Than This’ on American label Friends records (Future Islands, Natural Velvet), and the fantastically titled Italian label, Bizarre Love Triangles. ‘Frames’ is the first single from it, and it contains all of the tropes of indie-rock past delivered in tasteful fashion. Whilst people […]

In Conversation with…SILENCES

April 14, 2016May 14, 2017Charlotte HolroydComment(0)

Ireland’s Silences conquer the senses with pristine focus, their hypnotic folktronica remains both hushed and serene, melodic and irresistibly enchanting. The band are on the cusp of releasing a new work – the ‘Luna’ EP – their most mature and realised effort to date.
