🌪 TL;DR Section 🌪
- More than a decade ago I saw a band play Nottingham’s Dot to Dot festival that blew my mind. It was a three-piece band that had created a bunch of instruments from household items, but while it was avant garde, they still held a tight groove. The front woman was mesmerising. She was Mica Levi, the band was Micachu and The Shapes, and this piece on Huck charts Levi’s career from early gigs to her becoming nominated for an Oscar for her soundtrack work
- I will forever have a soft spot for Blawan and his industrial techno. This interview with him and Pariah as part of their promotion for the new Karenn album is great
- To celebrate ten years of being brilliant, there’s a great documentary on Wolf Music, For Those Who Like To Get Down
- I saw Amol Rajan speak at an event recently, and his clarity of thought was really refreshing. His interview with Bob Igor is big news, and required listening for anyone into culture
- Hector Primmer’s new album is sensational. Here he breaks down each track piece by piece
- Spotify saved the music business. This Fortune piece will undoubtedly be controversial to some, but I truly think that Spotify has done so much more good for the industry than it’s given credit for
- Walking is a cure for many ills
- I’ve been a fan of Evian Christ since his super heavy early singles (Fuck It None Of Y’All Don’t Rap). He then moved slightly sideways and started a trance party that’s developed a cult following
- Alexander Nut has put together a two-hour show for The Vinyl Factory that is, of course, compulsory listening
- And finally, get on the hype train, the Michael Kiwanuka album is great
