Greg Hill & Ayyuh J - Roll On - 2018
Inspired by precious lost moments with family members, the death of loved ones, and the loss of wide eyed hopeful machinations, this album follows the torment and turbulence of the simple mantra “we all grow up” but at times this is not always an easy process to live through.
Royal Canoe - RAYZ - 2018
Much like their material to date, ‘RAYZ’ aims to blend a whole universe of influences into one insatiable single. Taking influences from the swooning RnB sound and merging it with a psych-pop aesthetic, the new track emerges as a Glass Animals-meets-Animal Collective style jam that oozes summertime vibes.

Bye Bye Pride, A Tribute To The Go-Betweens - 2018
Geniuses will always be geniuses .....
The reunion of Robert Forster and Grant McLennan generated one of the most beautiful bands that the universe has given us, the name, well everyone knows, or should know, The Go-Betweens.
Reverse Play: C86 re(dis)covered - 2018
The idea for this one was be a “C86” theme! Not strictly C86 as to what was on the tapes, but more as a genre in (twee)music. Think bands like the Wake, BMX Bandits, Brighter, Heavenly, McCarthy etc.
The bands that were involved are indie's "hidden gems" and each of them brilliant in their own way, some more recoginised than others, but part of an extensive indie music network online that shares a devotion for music like no other….
We Are The City - WHEN I DREAM, I DREAM OF YOU - 2018
The album is joyful and intentionally imperfect. Featuring a guest appearance from Canadian hip-hop star Shad (who sings here, rather than rapping) and an abundance of overlaying gossamer melodies with static-soaked experimentation. This is the sound of lightning in a bottle.

ELDORADIO – CULT EP - 2018
Based out of the central Swedish city of Trollhättan, Thomas Keen, Adam Johansson, Anton Thorstensson, August Johansson, and Tomas Berglund are creating rock music that spans the fiery garage rock of Japandroids to the clever indie rock of Yo La Tengo. This combination would make them indie stars if they lived in Brooklyn, Chicago, or London, and a label like Sub Pop or Secretly Canadian would have signed them. Instead, they’re plying their trade as true independent artists and gradually gaining a following. Last week, they released their new EP, Cult, which is one of the year’s finest mini-albums.

Advance Base - "Your Dog" - 2018
"Gorgeous in its warmth and simplicity... Owen Ashworth writes lyrics so intimate and empathetic that you'd be forgiven for thinking him a confessional songwriter. However, he's quick to point out that the majority of his songs are rooted in fiction, though that doesn't diminish their emotional heft; if anything, his willingness to explore lends to the universality of his music."

Basement Revolver - Audiotree Live - 2018
Basement Revolver is an indie rock band who write slow-burning, introspective tunes. They meld serene synths and cyclical guitar patterns with lead singer Chrisy Hurn's understated, elegant vocal performance to create a balanced and evocative sound. Step into our studio and witness the subtle power and tranquil imagery of Basement Revolver.
Sonny Falls - Some Kind of Spectre - 2018
"Ryan Ensley, (formerly of antifolk outfit Shiloh) showed his knack for melding spunky, unvarnished acoustic instrumentation with big rock ’n’ roll power."
- Chicago Reader
"The album examines the complexities of codependency in a variety of relationships, including those involving addiction."
- PopMatters
"Slam that repeat button because you know 'Easy To Lose' is already stuck in your head."
- The 405
allegra weingarten - sunrise - 2018
he's a real rage slinger
callus on his fingers
hugging on your veins tight
cowboy man
rope in his hands
he lassos while the girls cry
makes me the beggar
but when we're together
he'll promise me his life
the babes bow down
he’ll take his crown
and wander through the dead night
but i'm the one who meets him at sunrise
american poetry club - we are beautiful, even when we are broken! - 2018
it's not perfect but it's ours damnit
just tryna get all the emo out of our system so we can finally go country like we always wanted to
an album of tunes that make me cringe sometimes but are nonetheless unapologetically sincere

Falcon Jane - Ginger Ale - 2018
Falcon Jane is fronted by Sara May, a candid, virgo, stoner-songwriter who brings new depth to easy-listening music. The songs are honest yet subtle, with deep, exposed cores feathered by floaty melodies and righteous riffs.
The songs are fuelled by emotionally raw lyrics, but the influence of my incredible collaborators in Falcon Jane has turned sad songs into true plez rock.

Copper Viper - Hung Up Alone - 2018
London-based folk duo Copper Viper have released their latest single Hung Up Alone. Beginning intimately with just Robin Joel Sangster (vocals /acoustic guitar) and Duncan Menzies’ (vocals / mandolin / fiddle) intricate vocal harmonies and the gentle hum of frogs croaking in the distance, a sense of warmth is immediately apparent. The pace then picks up as Menzies’ mesmerising fiddle playing comes into play alongside Sangsters’ melodic acoustic guitar, giving Hung Up Alone a truly traditional British folk feel.
