Jesse Mac Cormack
‘NHFN’
SOLO out April 8 – on Secret City Records
Feels like a Thom Yorke inspired track, very Kid A.
Panic Shack
‘The Ick’
Baby Shack out April 8 – On Brace Yourself Records
You put the milk in first? Mate, get a clue. How dare you shoosh me!
Bloomsday
‘Phase’
Place To Land out June 8 – Bayonet Records
A feel good easy breezy ditty, worth a feel good warm and fuzzy listen.
Erasers
‘A Breeze’
Constant Connection out April 8 – on Night School Records
Another quality slow burner.
Bodega
‘Pillar on the Bridge of Yourself’
Broken Equipment out now – on What’s Your Rapture?
Touring now across the UK
If you like what you hear, and we do, Bodega are playing a slew of dates around the end of the month in London town.
Sprints
‘Delia Smith’
Modern Job out now on Nice Swan Records
Sprints tackle the age-old question, ‘who wants to be special anyway?’. Track feels like a nod to Blood Red Shoes’ roots, if you dig that you’ll dig this.
