In June, the Australian trio Cable Ties are releasing a new album, All Her Plans, their follow-up to 2020’s Far Enough. They’re shared two singles from it so far, “Perfect Client” and “Time For You,” and today they’re back with another track, “Change.” “[‘Change’] contrasts the traumatization of victim/survivors by the so-called justice system with […]
Long Beard & Ryan Galloway – “Posters”
Just think about how long your beard could be if you’d started growing it the day the last Long Beard album dropped. It’s been close to four years since Leslie Bear released Means To Me, which itself arrived four years after Long Beard’s stellar debut Sleepwalker. We don’t have word of a third album today, […]

Rico Nasty – “Turn It Up” (Prod. 100 Gecs)
The combination of Rico Nasty and 100 Gecs has already proven electric. Today the brash rap iconoclast and hyperpop poster children have linked up again. “Turn It Up” is not the genre-bending head trip you might expect from a Rico x Gecs summit. It’s a hard, straightforward hip-hop track with lots of empty space for […]

Four Tet – “Three Drums”
Four Tet just headlined the main stage at Coachella. There are some caveats to that sentence, of course. Four Tet was DJ’ing alongside his friends and frequent collaborators Skrillex and Fred again.., and they were last-minute replacements after the whole much-documented Frank Ocean boondoggle. But that’s still a pretty amazing come-up for our guy Kieran […]
