As a massive fan of Camera Obscura, Raye Zaragoza is like coming home. The lazy dreamy quality of horns and steel string with a brilliantly powerful and honest vocal style is a perfect match. Enthralling Indie Folk that has an honesty and innocent happiness that everyone will love. It's over all too soon but I... Continue Reading →

This isn't my usual neck of the musical woods but this is genius, Horti gets into your mind and forces you to move to his music. Jesus Christ starts starts strong, comes into a tight break down and ends in a real badass Americana solo full of slick laid back goodness. The Horticulture vol. 1... Continue Reading →
Why have one speed to your music? Where's the fun in sticking to established rules? Listen to this song, it's so carefree. It seems that Bee Bee Sea have been on the fringes of the mainstream for absolutely ages. Maybe that's the plan? There's no reason that I can figure that they aren't loads bigger...

I'd love to see a full blown resurgence of bands like The Fragile States. The Lo-Fi 90's fuzz that has a stoner rock sort of feel to it is so different now. There is a great carefree feeling behind the lyrics and vocals that is infectious and makes you slip into a dreamy haze. To... Continue Reading →

Prepare yourself for a massive influx of chill and happy vibes. Usually this kind of warm folk in the vein of Noah and the Whale and Fleet Foxes doesn't do it for me but the whole 'everything is going to be alright' feeling did it. Interesting fact: Harry Lloyd was formerly a ski instructor in... Continue Reading →
I'm getting a Bastille, Wombats or Two Door Cinema Club vibe from Apex, there is a Indie Pop perfection here. There is no holding back when it comes to experimentation, there's a strange little effect in the mid section that adds to the atmosphere - the newest single City Girls alludes to this as well,...

One sings and one plays Guitar and Drums. Pretty concise, pretty spot on, incredibly under-playing how great they are though! I can't quite get my head around how great the drums are considering the kit is a miniature entirely controlled by pedals. Being a drummer this is intensely interesting to me. And then you hear...

It may be intensely lazy of me to say but it's fairly clear that this band has a lot of promise, there is a real 90's Factory Records vibe seeping out here. Like Happy Mondays and Primal Scream but for the Millenials or, more recently Egyptian Hip Hop. There is something in the attitude that... Continue Reading →
