🎧 Approved: Azamiah

Glasgow-based alt-jazz quartet Azamiah craft music that feels like it’s breathing. Their latest release, ‘New Moon’, has that Cleo Sol-esque luminosity; harmonies float, the instruments breathe and silence becomes part of the melody…

🎧 Approved: Fitzroy Holt

Fitzroy Holt’s sound has blues in its bones, punk in its pulse and an unpredictability born from Black Country grit. Named after a Midlands saying for taking the long way round, new single ‘Around The Wrekin’ is a surge of stoner-rock riffs with punk momentum…

🎧Approved: BIG SPECIAL

Walsall duo Big Special turn post-industrial malaise into something close to gospel, trading in thunderous drums, spoken-word sermons and a humour so black it practically glows. New single, ‘Plaintive Native’, lands somewhere between working-class blues and post-punk sermon…

🎧 Approved: Umut Adan

Turkish singer-songwriter Umut Adan and his Italian band Zebânis have a sound they coin “danceable dissent”. New single ‘Bogotà’ is a hypnotic protest anthem, fusing Anatolian psych with the communal pulse of cumbia…

🎧 Approved: Glom

There’s no gloom in Glom, instead we get shimmering riffs, 90s-leaning alt-rock choruses and shoegaze haze, with the tight rhythms of late 80s post-punk. With ‘Mirror’ he’s written one of his most frank songs, yet it remains unashamedly melodic and uplifting…

🎧 Approved: Westerman

Westerman, the project of Will Westerman, lives somewhere between folk and chamber pop; saint-like but playful in its textures. New single ‘About Leaving’ from upcoming album ‘A Jackal’s Wedding’ leans into all of that with a soft power…
