Great for a fancy pre-night out snack to line the stomach (if you are so inclined to host), to quell the munchies or as a general hearty snack. Piss easy to make, and taste bloody great – straight from oven to mouth. Ingredients, instructions and photo-instructions below. 10 mins prep, 15-20 mins chill, 25 […]
2015 has been the year of MØ. Part of the way I enjoy and discover new music is through fixations. I tend not to be über critical in my likes and tastes – but for me to truly connect with a artist takes something special. And every so often, an artist comes along that makes me want […]
Instagram is a core tool for music marketing, with artists like Rihanna racking up over 23m followers. So much so, that The Drum just announced it’s more influential than Youtube, Facebook and celebrities as a social marketing tool. For artists, interesting and engaging posts are key.

With new SoundCloud tag FUTURE DANCEHALL, Major Lazer’s first release from the new album (due out in April) is attention grabbing, to say the least. A chart topper, for sure. My guess is that this track will be to the new album, what Get Free and Jessica were to the two before. Featuring […]

I pledged for the vinyl, below. Although […]
Love it when you stumble across an old tune. I really like a lot of Joe Goddard’s work (1/5 of Hot Chip, 1/2 of 2 Bears), which is why I gave this a listen right away. The tune is simple and sweet. Not particularly reminiscent of either Hot Chip or Dirty Projectors. Just Amber Coffman’s vocals being […]
Another moody electro single from Cash+David, this time with an Eastern feel. I’m a little obsessed with this enigmatic London duo, and Pulse is just as captivating as their first single Funn. Pulse is released on June 9 but if you haven’t got Funn yet, then get it. Sign-up for free to the Sound […]
Paris Hilton makes a return to the music world with an Afrojack-produced pop-single featuring Lil Wayne.
