DeeOhGee - Don't Give Up On Love [Review]

Rating 3 out of 5

DeeOhGee deliver an infectious nostalgic chorus on Don’t Give Up On Love. This record transports you right to the 60’s but still manages to feel like now.

Nowo - Jungle [Review]

Rating: 3 out of 5

I’m loving the influence UK drill is having on music around the world and this record is no exception. ‘Jungle’ is smooth and inviting whilst still having attitude and tempo. Nowo is right the world is a jungle but records like this make it just that little bit easier to navigate.

HoodyBoi - The Bush [Review]

Rating: 5 out of 5

Jazz is poetry and on ‘The Bush’ HoodyBoi is speaking my language. The record epitomises that jazz is not only not dead but its thriving, fresh and relevant as ever. Glorious chords, subtle vocals paired with infectious grooves. This is the sound of summer 2023.

Wakai - '05 Honda [Review]

Rating 3 out of 5

Taken from his new album ‘Some people scream, some people talk’ 05 Honda is a serious head bopper. The groove in this record is infections just as is Wakai’s laid back flow. The chorus is catchy and potent and has us feeling like we’re riding shotgun as Wakai shows us his world.

Small Million - Good Impression

Rating: 3 out of 5

This record is equal parts raw passion and beautiful chaos. Vocally ‘Good Impression’ is arresting and sonically its big without being overpowering. This is more than a song... Small Million just gave us an anthem!

Cooper T - Original [Music Video Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

If a Guy Ritchie film was a song it would be Cooper T’s chest out anthem Original. The record screams bravado and Manchester swagger. The lyrics are cheeky and angsty and the production just makes your body move. Taking from their new EP ‘Sapiens’ Manchester might just have their next hometown heroes emerging.
