  • Near Death Experience “Underground”

    Near Death Experience “Underground”

    NDX have returned with a new single, “Underground,” which takes listeners on a grooving rock’n’soul adventure into an uber-cool subterranean place where “the beats get hot when the sun goes down.” As the band describes the new single, it brings to us a new musical genre: “subterranean swing!”

  • Snakedoctors “Friday Night”

    Snakedoctors “Friday Night”

    The second verse then sees buzzing, retro-sounding synths enter the mix, their melodies and textures bringing to mind old-school electronic bands like Kraftwerk; while additional layers of synths later join in, harmonizing quite well with each other and building further on the track’s retro electronic vibe.

  • Lost Like Lions “Medicate” (feat. AJ Perdomo of The Dangerous Summer)

    Lost Like Lions “Medicate” (feat. AJ Perdomo of The Dangerous Summer)

    “‘Medicate’ is a song about being young, making mistakes, and embracing them. It’s definitely a song of nostalgia, and the days of your only worry in the world being ‘What friend group am I hanging out with tonight? And what will I be drinking for the night?’”. Lost Like Lions

  • Staytus “Dreams From Hell”

    Staytus “Dreams From Hell”

    “For the listeners who haven’t listened to my music before, I can describe it as nu-goth, which borrows elements from industrial rock and grunge rock. It’s a journey that takes you into the mind of somebody struggling with mental illness.” Staytus

  • Bellhop “Alone”

    Bellhop “Alone”

    This track was heavily based off melbournes lockdowns – being stuck inside for almost 2 years disconnected, alone, dark and feeling like my bedroom was a prison. You would have some dark days and a few euphoric high days because your brain was missing any simulation it just didn’t know what to do with itself.…

  • Vanderwolf “When The Fire Grows Cold”/”Extinction!”

    Vanderwolf “When The Fire Grows Cold”/”Extinction!”

    “I had produced a tribute to Wyatt in NYC many years ago. Fred Frith, Peter Blegvad, Hugh Hopper and many others appeared. Robert gave it his official nod of support. When I moved to London to produce my first Meltdown Festival, Robert seemed the obvious choice to curate it, and from that, a lovely friendship…

  • Elektric Animals “Head in the Ground”

    Elektric Animals “Head in the Ground”

    “We were going for a tape saturated, overdriven preamp sound in everything for “Falling.” Mostly seeing what we could do with almost no reverb on anything. “Head in the Ground” was more a love we all have for the classic Lofi indie music. Finding a way to inject psych pop into an introspective feel. Very…

  • The Lowtones – Front Row Empty

    The Lowtones – Front Row Empty

    All the tracks were written during the height of the pandemic and I think the uncertainty, anxiety, and isolation of the time comes through in the music. Mav had recently come out of a long-term relationship as well as moving back to Norfolk from Brighton, so a lot of the lyrical themes are of reflection…

  • Catherine Elms “Frustrations”

    Catherine Elms “Frustrations”

    “My songs are dark, fierce, introspective – written from my experiences as a queer woman, a feminist, a person with mental illness, and an introverted indie musician. I write about fighting to improve a world that wasn’t built for us, losing (and re-finding) yourself in toxic love, being a messy weirdo in an industry that…

  • Poison Oak “Hope You Like The View”

    Poison Oak “Hope You Like The View”

    “Hope You Like The View” is Poison Oak’s third single from their upcoming EP, The View From Here. The song explores the themes of choices, and sometimes how someone’s unexpected choices can affect the people they’re close to.

  • MonkeyRat – Isolation

    MonkeyRat – Isolation

    “One day in Reykjavík, when I started my studies University of the Arts, at the height of the pandemic back in the fall of 2020, I went for a walk in the park. Isolated and saddened that I couldn’t reach my husband in the Faroe Islands, I got inspired. I could no longer contain the…

  • Twin Stranger “Sweat”

    Twin Stranger “Sweat”

    As the first verse begins, Alex’s compelling vocals are nicely underscored by introspective guitar chords, together creating a contemplative atmosphere that perfectly accompanies the track’s questioning lyrics; while the memorable chorus that follows is colored by dynamic guitar melodies and vibrant synth notes.
