Single Review.... Sam Lee – Goodbye My Darling

Sam Lee ended 2012 on a all time high, his album “Ground Of It's Own” was nominated for the Barclycard Mercury Prize that year, and this year welcomes him with open arms and with a lot more fans to entice into his musical world. Goodbye My Darling: The track starts off with a synth line, a bit strange considering that Sam is a folk artist, however it creates another level for the listener to ponder over. With aboriginal digarey-doo sounds and even more intricate noises coming forth, such as violins, the acoustic guitar and his haunting vocals. He really delves deep into the folk treasure chest here to unleash some exciting sounds. Out of 10: 7.5/10 Follow / [FACEBOOK]

Nigeria’s Newest Star Rema Releases Debut EP 'Iron Man'

Mavin Records and Jonzing World present the breakthrough teenage artist Rema, unveiling his debut EP 'Iron Man' - packed with infectious afrobeat grooves and released via Mavin Records as part of their first imprint deal. Rema is a fantastic example of the strength of talent currently emerging from Africa, with 'Iron Man' a superb introduction that is likely to gain him many plaudits. His ability to confidently navigate his way throughout the project belies his 18 years, merely scratching the surface of his undoubted potential. “Rema is a formidable young artist: with his skill and versatility, he has a unique place in the future of afrobeats. At the same time, we’re excited to launch our first imprint deal with Jonzing World.

The Nigerian artist honed h...

FATECRIMES strikes gold with their fierce single, "BOTH ENDS."

Hailing from Brighton, England, the band are back with their brooding and soulful new cut, "BOTH ENDS". The striking new single is the outfit's third of the year and is yet another song to be lifted off their debut album. ... a raw, hard-hitting emo anthem that proves this Brighton act is officially here to stay. The new cut is a thrilling preview of what is coming up, and it also marks their first-ever foray into the world of music videos. The track itself is a raw and hard-hitting emo cut with brooding basslines and drum beats that give your body a tap-along feel. The guitar hooks in here are insane and will easily grip new and old fans alike with their strong tones, offering you plenty to lean forwards into. Having been releasing music since 2025, it sounds like this Brighton-based act is here and is here to stay.

Nellie Feldmann shares the beautiful new song, "Turn Down My Shine"

Nellie Feldmann's new single, "Turn Down My Shine", has just been released. The single is a shimmeringly beautiful acoustic track with licks of indie folk for good measure. It is a vocally rich track that showcases her vocals perfectly and, all the while, is laid upon a track that has a perfect tempo to get you tapping along without realising. ... a delicate, genre-blending acoustic gem that highlights a promising new voice in alt-pop. Based in Brighton, the South Coast artist seemingly blends intimate vocals, warm lo-fi textures, and delicate acoustic instrumentation to craft an alt-pop track that is rather easy to pick up on for anyone who wishes to listen. It's not the kind of song that sticks to one genre and focuses highly on that. She picks great elements and moulds them all together to create something so captivating. Even the atmospheric vocals around the two-minute mark were a wonderful addition. Considering this is only her second ever single, this is absolu...

Reetoxa reveals the new tune, "Bottle", written back in 1995!

Based out of Melbourne, Australia, Reetoxa recently unveiled their powerful new single, "Bottle." If you feel like this song has a certain 90s sound to it, then know this: the single was remarkably penned in 1995 when the vocalist was just 15 years old. It was inspired by those alternative rock songs of that time, with the addition of commercial and art-pop influences too. ... a powerful, guitar-driven time capsule that perfectly captures the vintage spirit of the mid-90s alternative rock scene. These days, there is a massive revival for that kind of scene. When artists such as this come back and release music that was written over 30 years ago, there is already a market for it. There is already a fanbase eager to delve into sounds that inspired a generation. With explosive guitars, crisp percussion, and a bassline that can warm the deepest parts of your head, this is by far a great example of that mid-90s spirit. Vintage and yet fresh, this is exactly what we love here. W...

The Origins of Indie Rock Music: From Underground Roots to Global Stages

Indie rock music is one of the most beloved and influential genres in modern music. Known for its DIY ethos, raw authenticity, and refusal to conform to mainstream industry norms, indie rock has evolved from underground beginnings into a global movement. But where did indie rock come from, and how did it grow into the genre we know today? What Does “Indie Rock” Mean? The term “indie” originally stood for independent . In the late 1970s and early 1980s, bands that weren’t signed to major record labels released their music through smaller independent labels . Over time, the word “indie” became less about the business model and more about the sound and attitude —raw, experimental, and often outside the mainstream. The 1970s: Punk and Post-Punk Influence Indie rock’s origins are deeply tied to the punk rock explosion of the mid-1970s. Bands like The Sex Pistols and The Clash proved that music didn’t need polished production or major backing to make an impact. Out of punk came post-punk ...

Oasis: Their Enduring Impact on Music and Hints of a 2026/27 Tour

Few bands have left as profound a mark on modern rock as Oasis . Emerging in the early 1990s from Manchester, the group — fronted by brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher — quickly rose to global fame with their signature blend of Britpop swagger, anthemic melodies, and unforgettable choruses. Today, decades after their debut, Oasis remain a cultural touchstone, their influence stretching across generations of indie and rock acts . The Oasis Sound and Legacy Oasis’ defining sound combined gritty guitar riffs, soaring vocals, and lyrics that balanced working-class grit with poetic ambition. Albums like Definitely Maybe (1994) and (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? (1995) became instant classics, propelling the band into international superstardom. Tracks such as Wonderwall , Don’t Look Back in Anger , and Champagne Supernova are now timeless sing-alongs that have transcended the era they were created in. Their influence can be heard in countless bands that followed, from Arctic Monkeys...

[INTERVIEW] with... Jack Jones of Trampolene

Photo: Tana Kadlecova Jack - "I don't know what it is about the vibe on my single, it is very intimate, it is me adding little bits of life into a song and putting it out there. When I started to do this in a bedroom, it sounded very personal and intimate. I can't think of loads of acoustic songs with Trampolene they are not usually what people connect with the band, it is not how we are seen in the public eye. That is more like loud guitars and big drum sounds. The poems may be, we are sticking to it and people slowly coming around, it is like climbing up a ladder with no arms or legs." The decision to take a step outside his day job as frontman with Trampolene and release a double A side single featuring "Swim Up" and "It's Not My Thing" is definitely one to be endorsed for Swansea boy, dreamer and dole queue poet Jack Jones . BBC Radio's Huw Stephens premiered both tracks last month and digital editions have been ava...

[SOUNDS OF 2019] - #9 - The Scruff

If you’re going to file The Scruff under anything, the easiest option would be “hometown heroes”. The Bedford four-piece almost seem like the property of the town and the surrounding areas within the county. It appears that anyone will find a reason to say they support, and have supported, the band for a long time. After a very successful 2017 with the addition of a new member (Jack), the release of their first proper single "Her" and a plethora of live shows it wasn't long before the BBC and Radio X were hot on the heels of the Bedfordshire based band. 2018 saw them up their game even more with teh releases of "Let You Down (I Won't)" and "White Flag", once again showcasing the band's talents to the masses. Judging by the sounds of it The Scruff are aiming high with their aspirations, and why not, "Her" is a great statement for them, and their latest track is by far the best thing they've done to date. I can honestly see ...

The Daylight Dream drops the epic debut single, "Sofia"

Emerging from Bridgend, Wales, is The Daylight Dream, and they have recently released their epic debut single, "Sofia." Having just come out last week, the song has certainly been doing the rounds in our office. It seemingly captures Suga-style guitar with dream-pop sensibilities, all the while mixed in with an undertone of late 90s Brit-pop. ... a masterfully produced solo project that delivers one of the most powerful and captivating UK indie debuts of the year. I especially liked the intro, which swiftly led to the stunning vocal tones. This project is the solo effort of Aaron Molyneaux, but to me, this sounds like a full-on five-piece band effort since it is so well produced. It is equally a moody track and upbeat at the same time, with the vocals acting as the former and the bright, upbeat guitars and drums acting as the latter. Mastered by Audio Animals, this impressive self-produced and engineered anthem marks a powerful, fresh chapter for the UK indie scene, with this...
