2023 New Music

[Quark]

Catching up on loads at the moment.  David Holmes remix of the title track from Don Letts' debut solo album coming in April. Reading Don's book atm so this is a decent bit of soundtrack.

Definitely.  Have you read his book? Definitely worth it if you haven't, really interesting stuff. Captures so much of the social context and history at the same time, not just a by the numbers sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll autobiography

He does but not as much as you'd probably expect

Got a bundle deal last year, signed copy and joined on online Q&A with him.  Fascinating fella

I ended up buying Bobby Gillespie’s book instead as it was on 99p kindle deal and the fact that I have 57 pages of unread books on my kindle is testament to that fact. That’s why I have a wish list so I can see when they are reduced!

Enjoying Iggy Pops latest. Still rocking for a 75 year old.

New Daughter coming

Seems this is a new song out on Monday from an album out in April. Really looking forward to this, they’re probably my favourite band of the last decade. Two brilliant albums and the EPs/soundtrack album are great too. It seems like this album will be a bit happier sounding, which wouldn’t be hard but will be interesting to see where they go with it.

New material from Peter Gabriel. It's very Peter Gabriel.

Lemon Twigs are back and it's really rather lovely in a 70s kinda way

One of my faves too, I played Not To Disappear to death, April release may mean a Glasto appearance.

It’s a bit…Mika 

[Riggins]

She may be a nepo baby but can see this being one of my AOTY contenders. FFO Holly Humberstone, Clairo etc. Looks like the full album's produced by Aaron Dessner which is always welcome news to me. 

 

[Quark]

New Billy Nomates album on Friday.  Really looking forward to that one.

It seems Amazon have dropped a bollock and accidentally leaked the track list for The National's new one on the listing for Belle & Sebastian's album...

Sufjan, Taylor & Pheebsx2 collabs; what a time.

Between this and the new Daughter song, sad music season is back and I couldn't be happier.

Really odd how this happened as they're not even on the same label

What a strange thing to happen. The National haven’t even officially confirmed the new album or anything yet have they? Just released that one song (that’s seemingly not even on the album, although not a bad thing imo as I don’t recall it being particularly great). 

Anyway, hyped about this being on the hopefully near horizon, and stoked about those guest features.
