Bayonne - january, 2026

"Combining Americana, indie-rock and dream-pop together on this new release, Bayonne has created something mesmerisingly cinematic."

New Order - ceremony live retro, 1984

"Ceremony" is a song written by Joy Division, and first released as New Order's debut single in 1981. The track and its B-side, "In a Lonely Place", were recorded as Joy Division before the death of their lead singer Ian Curtis. Both were re-recorded and carried over to Joy Division's re-formation as New Order."

A-ha - we're looking for the whales, 1986

"a song of longing, a return to innocence, with the whale the symbol of that freedom. It’s filled with the ache of life which I love about a-ha’s music. The freedom of childhood is contrasted with the beached whales"

Pink Floyd - another brick in the wall part one, 1979

"Young Pink begins building a mental wall between himself and the world, distancing himself from the pains of life, such as having to grow up without a father."

Morrissey - kerching kerching, 2026

"Kerching Kerching jeers at a man – once a “small boy” with a “shy smile” – ground down by a lover who appears to be the embodiment of modern capitalism’s relentless demands."

The Waterboys - another kind of circus, 1983

"Whilst the sound may seem dated across the years (Linn drums, anyone?) and Scott’s voice lacks the authority that it gained with subsequent maturity, the songs on The Waterboys still sound as fresh as a daisy and as startling as a summer rainstorm."

Alvvays - very online guy, 2022

“Very Online Guy” is a bit more of a departure from what we’ve come to expect from the band. The track sounds distinctly European, channeling strains of Italo Disco and French chansons, and it’s hard to tell at first whether Rankin is singing in another language."

Club 8 - echoes of our time, 2026

"a nostalgia-inducing bop that channels classic New Order and shimmering, 80s pop while showcasing the duo’s unerring knack for catchy hooks and rousingly anthemic choruses."
