The music scene is bursting at the seams with fresh talent, all wanting their five minutes of eternal glory. There's brand-new releases every week and funky indie bands are popping up all over the joint. There's been breakthroughs, comebacks and albums which have taken the entire world by storm this year; and it's only May...
But still, as you scroll through your iPhone's music bank of artists you've loved for years and through the hundreds of songs which suit every mood physically possible... You still find yourself with nothing to listen too.
You're bored of Peace and you've over-played NME's prodigy's Palma Violets "180" and you're looking for something to blow them all out of the water. You can't wait for Swim Deep's new album and you've already been on every illegal downloading website; frantically searching for "The Sea" but alas you have still come-up short.
Something new.. Something exciting... Something that isn't as soul crushing as finding yourself listening to a white nobody rapping about a thrift shop. Fret no more young soul / music searcher. I have compiled a list of fresh new music (and some you will have already heard of) to put an end to your torturous replays of overplayed tunes. Something new to sink your headphones into a delve into the unknown...
This list of new/new-ish/seemingly unheard of sounds, which are buzzing around through my headphones right now, will keep you entertained for at least a day:
Unforgettable / Pigeon Detectives
Pansy / Crim3s (not as sweet and innocent as the name suggests)
Wings / HAERTS: Wildcat! Wildcat! Remix
Keep In The Dark / Temples
Wallow / Coasts
Placid Acid / Tourist (2:39 trust me)
Don't Forget Who You Are / Miles Kane
We won't let our worries dictate who we are
See You On The Other Side / Frenetics
This One's For Love / The Chapman Family
Dancehall / Tribes
I don't care for dancing / but thanks for asking
