🎧 Approved: Verraco

Verraco’s sound bubbles over with South American dembow rhythms, the maximalist basslines of UK soundsystem culture, meticulous IDM sound design, and the intensity and precision of techno. New single ‘Basic Maneuvers’ is a high-energy 4x4 club cut destined for large sound systems…

🎧 Approved: BXKS

BXKS has built her name on precision, both in flow and vision. Her new track ‘Flashing Lights’ floats on a stripped-back, strings-led instrumental. There’s still the bouncy, deft ease to her delivery, but here it's in service of something softer, more considered…

🎧Approved: DBA!

DBA! slither between lo-fi indie rock and fractured psych-folk, with vocals that feel like they’re floating in from a neighbour’s house party. Their latest single ‘D.P.D.’ is a woozy, low-stakes toe-tapper.…

🎧 Approved: L.A. WITCH

​L.A. Witch exude an aura of effortless cool, a fusion of smooth and smoky garage alchemy with a newfound utilisation of post-punk’s disciplined reserve and icy instrumentation. Their new single ‘Icicle’ sees them journeying into the forlorn minimalism of Joy Division and early The Cure…

🎧 Approved: M(h)aol

Emerging from the creative confluence of Dublin, Belfast and London, M(h)aol (pronounced ‘male’) don’t just make post punk they wield it. Their new single, ‘DM:AM’, is a blistering one-take shot at the entitled men who clog women’s inboxes with unsolicited, aggressive messages…
