Liars Tale

Kneecap bring the absolute chaos today with "Liars Tale." The trio continue to prove exactly why they are the most exciting voice in Irish hip-hop right now. Built on a heavy, distorted beat and fueled by their signature blistering, bilingual flows, this track is an absolute riot of anti-establishment energy. If you aren't paying attention to what these lads are doing, crawl out from the rock you were hiding behind. Play it loud and watch your speakers shake.

From Me

Montreal's CRi teams up with Bernache for "From Me," a lush, atmospheric slice of melodic deep house. Driving analog beats meet emotive, ethereal vocals, creating a track that feels equally suited for a late-night drive or a packed basement club. It's pulsing, hypnotic, and incredibly smooth. Turn this one all the way up.

Animal

Martin Luke Brown delivers a masterclass in raw, soulful indie-pop with "Animal." This track feels completely unpolished in the best way possible. Warm, muffled, melodic and catchy. If you like your pop music with a bit of dirt under its fingernails, get on this.

Tracks Of The Week

It has been an absolutely massive week for music. Rather than drowning you in 14 different track of the days, we’ve packed the best of the week into a roundup playlist. Hit play, let it run, and read through our rundown below. Some new, some old, NO BS just decent tunes.

1. Delphic – "Between Forms"

A massive welcome back to the Manchester electronic-indie pioneers. It’s got that sweeping, euphoric synth-pop build that made their debut so untouchable. Pure cinematic nostalgia.

2. Art School Girlfriend – "L.Y.A.T.T."

A brooding, late-night electronic groove that pulls you right in.

4. The Enemy – "Social Disguises"

Classic, unapologetic UK indie rock. The Coventry lads are back doing exactly what they do best—delivering gritty, working-class anthems built for sweaty academy venues. If you’ve missed that mid-2000s NME tour energy, this is your fix. I'm going through the album atm and there's some very decent tracks on it, more to come for sure.

5. Jeremy Olander – "Arrival"

Deep, melodic progressive house that builds into an absolute trance. IMO an extremley underrated talent. Am LOVING the new album and it's a definate contender for Album of the month.

6. Labrinth – "IMPLOSION"

Nobody does cinematic, chest-rattling production quite like Labrinth right now. It is vast, dramatic, and perfectly orchestrated. It sounds like a soundtrack to the end of the world, and we are entirely here for it. Extremely impressed will all the latest release from him. More to come.

7. Kloyd – "New Love"

Shimmering (My fav word atm wtf), euphoric house production made for the early hours. Production is superb.

8. The Temper Trap – "Into The Wild"

A welcome return to that sprawling, stadium-sized indie rock sound. Some great tracks, with gorgeous melodies and sweet vocals.

9. Fcukers – "Beatback"

Raw, infectious, beat-driven energy that doesn't waste a single second.

10. Mobb Deep, Nas, H.E.R. – "Love The Way (Down For You PT2)"

A flawless intersection of golden-era hip-hop royalty and modern R&B. Hearing Nas trade bars over a beat that carries the legendary Mobb Deep DNA, smoothed out by H.E.R.'s vocals, makes this an instant late-night driving classic.

11. RIO KOSTA, Jaime Rosso, Bror Havnes – "It's Starting (Jaime Rosso Remix)"

A pulsating, club-ready reimagining that hits effortlessly hard.

12. Flyying Colours – "Wavygravy"

A towering wall of dream-pop and shoegaze fuzz.

13. Zheani, Danny Brown – "HEROINE ICONOCLAST"

Absolutely unhinged in the best way possible. Throwing Danny Brown’s frantic, chaotic delivery onto a track with Zheani’s aggressive, genre-bending industrial trap is a match made in sonic hell. Not for the faint-hearted.

14. Eats Everything – "Make Some Noise"

A relentless, peak-time techno stomper built for the warehouse.

15. FKA twigs – "HARD"

Avant-pop brilliance that perfectly balances glitchy beats with delicate vocals.

There Always

If you haven't been paying attention to Brigitte Calls Me Baby, it's time to wake up. The Chicago lads just dropped their second album Irreversible, and the opening track, "There Always," is an absolute masterclass in 80s-inspired indie pop.

I had the pleasure of catching them live in Manchester recently, and honestly? They were outstanding. Wes Leavins’ vocals are just as soaring and magnetic in person as they are on the record.

Massive respect to the band: someone collapsed during their set, and they immediately stopped playing, drew attention to the person so they could get help, and only resumed once everything was sorted. Pure class.

They bring that perfect blend of vintage crooner melancholy and punchy, modern post-punk energy. "There Always" sets the tone for the whole record—moody, shimmering, and completely infectious.

Give it a spin below and let the obsession begin.

P.S. If you haven't heard their debut album, The Future Is Our Way Out, give that a spin falling in love with it would be "Too Easy"!

Cigarette and Cocktail

Ron Sexsmith - "Cigarette and Cocktail," from his latest record, Hangover Terrace. It’s classic Sexsmith, gorgeous warm acoustic melody from one of the finest songwriters!

Mo Se B'ólá tán
