When I first heard this track my first question was…. WHO’S GOING TO PAY £15 FOR A KEBAB???? Pre covid there used to a kebab shop near my house that I used to treat myself to every so often, you’d get a large portion inside a pitta with your choice of toppings for less than …
Hello Lola, how are you? I’m good thank you 
Hope you’re well!I’m great thankyou for asking! Congratulations on the release of “Jump The Gun” how does it feel? Thanks so much! Releasing Jump The Gun feels absolutely amazing. It’s always a mix of excitement and anxiety inducing nerves putting new music out into the world, but …

Well! Vulfpeck dropped fire again. I mean it’s Vulfpeck… what do you expect? Just to give you a bit of background, I get recommended tracks from everywhere. There are the usual sources, instagram, Spotify release radar, going through the FOTN inbox, Apple Music, the precious PRs, pluggers, record labels, other bloggers… but this one? This …
To close the faves this week, we have a track from Yodashe, this track starts off with glitched synths then drums are added – just rim shot and kick to begin with as well as a harsh clap. The vocals come in high and strong – another song that’s bordering on the theatrical, because there …
I like the way this beginnings with clashing notes, it’s very punk, but not very heavy! I think the split sections is a running theme this week, because this has a pretty solid b section at 2:39, where everything drops back to a purr, and it’s just guitar and vocals. The atmospherics on this really …
Roller Derby start this track off with a synth intro that fades up. It gives you the false impression that it’s a ballad as it’s just keyboards and vocals, guitars and a drum machine up until 0:18. Then the drums, bass, and guitar come in fully turning this into a wider track with a bigger …
Now this track has an a great little twist, I like the fact that Penfriend is using a synth bass to give it that much of a fuzz over rock drums, the beat is steady, and gives Laura space to put in a great performance vocally on this. She switches between spoken word to really …
Now this is an interesting one, very jazzy, and sophisticated. I love jazzy and sophisticated. In a listening post that sat comfortably among folk songs, hip hop and a full blown concerto this just testifies to the taste of the team and the diversity of what comes through. It makes it hard to choose your …
The first line says it all – “People make mistakes – that’s why pencils have erasers”. It’s spoken from the get go and that line stays with you. It certainly did with me. It lists the way that people make mistakes, and I like the way it’s done, it switches between spoken word and singing. …
