Check out these slices of rock, techno, hip hop and electronica.

Kim Deal – A Good Time Pushed

New tune from Kim Deal formerly of iconic bands The Pixies, The Breeders. Her first ever solo album is coming this November.

Bicep & Hammer – Chroma 007 Steall

This new collaboration is named after a waterfall on the slopes of Ben Nevis that the pair of electronic musicians hiked to alongside visual artist David Rudnick. Steall is the latest in a series of Chroma releases.

Chiseko – Stay

Chiseko’s popularity is growing fast, and his show at Si Paradiso this November is completely sold out. This tune was created with producer Tentendo.

“My favourite thing about working on this song was being able to link up with Tentendo who I wanted to collaborate with for a long time. The song came together naturally and his production skills really elevated the soundscape. Having Annalisa come in and help out with backing vocals on the hook was the icing on the cake.” Chiseko said of his latest offering.

Flying Lotus – Ingo Swann

An unexpected sound from Flying Lotus on their new single. Ingo Swann, an upbeat, shimmering house number, sounds like nothing from Flying Lotus’s typical oeuvre. It takes its title from the famed psychic of the same name.

Boy George – Smalltown Boy

As Bronski Beat’s Smalltown Boy marks it’s 40th anniversary Boy George has released a heavier rock version of the classic song. The Culture Club singer teased his cover of the track back in December 2023, so it’s nice to see it finally get a release.
