Ahead of a short run of dates with Black Peaks (we’ll see you at the Westy in Aldershot, yeah?), Brighton’s InTechnicolour have unveiled the latest single from their as-yet untitled new album.

Boy Scouts – ‘Queen’ San Franciscan Taylor Vick recorded this EP in various houses across her home city, begging and borrowing instruments along the way. It has a Sparklehorse meets Alex G feel and its tender yet glitchy atmospherics will enchant you from the first note. Taylor’s gorgeous vocals glide over the acoustic strums as…
Fairhazel – ‘7×7’ Inspired by the Tibetan Book of the Dead, ‘7×7’ finds Fairhazel singing about breaking free and discovering further humanity.

We asked James Smith (also known as Good Good Blood) to talk us through his Top 5 albums of the past 12 months. They’re an absolute delight… Henoheno – ‘Piggybacks’ I’ve long been a fan of Henoheno’s music but this album sees Henry Thompson and Jenny Yu’s music shoot up another level. Songs sparkle and…

Field Music – ‘Count It Up’ Field Music’s new single was described to us by their PR as ‘Jeremy Corbyn fronting Talking Heads’ and we couldn’t have been more excited to hear it.
