Dream Wife  have announced a new EP entitled Fire, which will be released on the 29^th September.

“It’s a song of explosive emotion; volcanic, eruptive and reflective in turn,” explains the band members, all three of which are astrological fire signs, to The FADER. “During moments of pure connection a bolt of fire can be felt between people. The explosion begins; movement is electric, conversation erratic and you become fully immersed in the moment. Thematically and tonally we explore the paradox present in the symbolism of ‘fire’ as both a creative and destructive force.”

The Fire EP will is available to pre-order now, on limited edition vinyl.

North London singer-songwriter Suzi Wu is gearing up for the release of her debut EP, ‘Teenage Witch’ out on Friday 8^th September 2017.

Following the title track, Suzi now shares the next offering from the EP, ‘Taken Care Of’. Suzi explains, “’Taken Care Of’ is about the things that made and broke me as a child, and finding power in my inability to be perfect. I wrote it for teens and children who are lost and who lead double lives.”

‘Teenage Witch’ is available to pre-order now, on a limited edition coloured vinyl run of just 300 copies, or digitally here.

Hinds are back with a fun-loving cover of “Caribbean Moon”, originally a calypso-tinged 70’s gem by Kevin Ayers, of Soft Machine.

In the vein of their previous cover and live favourite “Davey Crockett (Gabba Hey)”, by Thee Headcoats, the Spanish quartet have injected some much needed vitality into the few remaining weeks of Summer with “Caribbean Moon”.

Hinds will be back in the UK next week for shows in Edinburgh and at Green Man Festival and have also recently announced a Spanish tour for this November.

“Caribbean Moon” is available to buy and stream from today, Friday 11^th August.

Samantha Urbani has been teasing us with sporadic drops of tantalising pop gems – from the urban strut of “U Know I Know”, to the sparkling, irresistible rush of “1 2 3 4” and, most recently, the RnB infused “Go Deeper”. Now, Urbani is about to unleash the full scale of her brilliantly skewed pop vision with her debut solo EP, Policies of Power.

“Hints and Implications” is the bold opener, a future anthem with a soaring chorus that is set to turn heads at sixty paces. Drawing on influences as varied as New Order and Nu Metal, the song itself, though insanely infectious, is a simmering tangle of barely contained frustration. Urbani explains:  “at its core its about the ontology of truth – whether interpersonal communication/“honesty” is even possible, considering the subjectivity of our individual reality-perception. but surface level its really about that breaking point where you stop trying with someone when you can’t even get a motherfuckin text back.”

Writing, recording and producing the EP with a number of key collaborators, including co-producer Sam Mehran, in several different bedrooms and basements in LA and NYC, “Policies of Power” is both a remarkably assured and sleek statement of intent for Urbani, as well as a sly clarion call for listeners to dissemble and question the dynamics of power and communication. With this EP Urbani has well and truly declared herself a force of nature on the pop landscape.

Hints and Implications is digitally available now. “Policies of Power” EP is to be released on Friday 18th August 2017 but is available to pre-order now, on a limited edition transparent coloured vinyl run of just 300 copies.

We are thrilled to introduce the debut release from Suzi Wu, aka 19-year-old Londoner Suzie McDermott. A cocktail of Ian Dury, Happy Mondays and Patti Smith, Suzi has clearly been hugely influenced by the visceral connection between pop, performance, personal empowerment and self-education.

Premiered last night by Beats 1 as their World Record, Suzi today now shares ‘Teenage Witch’, of which she says “Teenage Witch was inspired by the art works of comic book artist Simon Hanslemann. I was getting up at 10pm at night, I’d quit sixth form, my life was nocturnal and bizarre. A drive thru life, there is a poetry in that I think.”

It is the first single from her debut EP of the same name, to be released on Friday 8^th September 2017 but available to pre-order now, on a limited edition coloured vinyl run of just 300 copies, or digitally here.
