The ‘On E Street Remix’ EP is a measured extension of DownTown Mystic’s long-standing approach to rock music, that is rooted in tradition but shaped with a clear sense of purpose. At its core is Robert Allen’s commitment to a style that prioritises songcraft and feeling over reinvention, and this releaseContinue Reading
‘Blood Red Hills’, the latest single from Brighton-based project Fierce Friend, feels like a deliberate refinement of Alan Grice’s approach to songwriting. Where earlier work leaned more toward layered sophistication, this track tightens its focus, favouring clarity and forward motion over ornamentation. Built around a clipped, angular guitar pattern, theContinue Reading
There’s a quiet ambition running through ‘Church Street’ that reveals itself through careful, deliberate expansion. Welsh duo Jon Howells and Michael J Hall have always operated slightly outside of easy categorisation, but here, that refusal to settle becomes the defining strength of the collection. At its core, ‘Church Street’ is preoccupied with howContinue Reading

There’s a complete shift in gravity when the GLOK remix of ‘The Party’ takes hold. What begins life as a sharp, rhythm-led indie cut is pulled deep into something slower, heavier, and far more immersive. In the hands of Andy Bell (working under his GLOK moniker) the track is transformed intoContinue Reading
There’s something quietly disarming about Houston duo The Shrubs’ latest outing ‘Let Us In’. On the surface, it carries a breezy, almost buoyant energy, but spend a little more time inside it, and a different picture begins to emerge that’s far more unsettled beneath its glow. At the heart ofContinue Reading
Portland-born artist Brianna McGeehan returns with ‘Hey Teacher’, a sharp, self-assured release arriving ahead of her debut solo EP this summer. Framed as a response to disruptive influences, the track delivers a clear message of self-preservation, turning frustration into something purposeful and empowering.
