🎧 Approved: Frankie Rose

Brooklyn’s Frankie Rose makes glacial post-punk and 80s synth-pop that sits alongside Cocteau Twins or early Cure. New single ‘Manifest’ is at the darker end of that: industrial, brooding and from an album about grief…

🎧 Approved: RenzNiro

Manchester’s RenzNiro blends vaporised grime, experimental electronics and world-building lyricism into something singular. Five projects in, ‘No Weapon Shall Prosper’ is the one that undeniably makes the case…

🎧 Approved: Eddie 9V

Atlanta guitarist Eddie 9V spent years in metal bands before a Howlin Wolf clip changed everything. New single ‘Blowin Up’ - country-fried funk, greasy slide guitar, actual explosions - is the first taste of his Dan Auerbach-produced debut for Easy Eye Sound…

🎧 Approved: Moses Boyd

Moses Boyd is back after five years away and ‘Say Yeah’ was worth the wait - gospel-rooted, dancefloor-ready jazz with a London accent and a hook so simple it works in any language. A video made with Woolwich Creative Club has exactly the communal feel the song is about…

🎧 Approved: Kamal.

Kamal. had 250 million streams and a Dave collab before he’d even put out a debut album. That arrives 17 Jul and new single ‘Back Then’ - a voice note recorded in his childhood home turned into something genuinely hard to shake - suggests it's been worth the wait…

🎧 Approved: alphabet

Barely any recorded music, but London’s alphabet have already sold out shows and built a real live following. New single ‘Sense’ finally captures that energy on tape; abrasive guitars, propulsive drums and dual vocals swinging between desperate and enticing…

🎧 Approved: supermodel*

Frankie Beanie’s supermodel* makes cigarette-rasped alterna-pop. New single ‘blue monday’ trades his deadpan Tesco-meal-deal wit for something more wistful, upbeat drums and acoustic guitar settling into slacker blues about chasing someone who was never going to choose you back…

🎧 Approved: Chloé Caillet

Chloé Caillet mixes in key, thinks in harmonics, and her music is bubbly and beautiful for it. New single ‘Bad Bara’ is warm, playful house; rolling bassline, shimmering synths, the kind of track that channels a dance festival daytime set in the sun, which is exactly where Caillet tends to be…
