In this interview, Jessy reflects on the creative process behind the record, how it evolved in the studio and on the dancefloor, and finding the balance between introspection and club energy. 1). “The Secret We Found”…

Brooklyn duo Dancing In Tongues return with Petri Dish, an electronic-indie single shaped by IVF, suspended tension, and fragile hope. Written and produced in Berlin with Lucas Herweg (LLUCID) and Jacob Bergson (TAUT), working as Designer, the track opens their upcoming four-track EP of the same name.Sarah Martin-Nuss and David Nuss keep the sound restrained and immersive. Ambient electronics, crystalline vocals, and fluid rhythms carrying the emotional weight without overstatement.On Petri Dish, that system feels intentionally suspended. Shimmering synth layers, atmospheric textures, and restrained percussion hold the track between stillness and motion, while Martin-Nuss’s vocal stays close and exposed. Nothing…
Leeds, England-based singer-songwriter Joe Doonan delivers “til we find love”. It is a tender indie folk song featuring incredible vocals. The track is dreamy, with a strong use of strings that help build atmosphere within an otherwise stripped-back arrangement…. adeeply emotional indie folk track driven by raw vocals, delicate strings, and lingering melodic beauty.There is no denying that Joe’s vocals are the standout element here, and they are the reason this song resonates so strongly on first listen. Even in my initial notes, I found myself noting how striking his raw emotion was.The chorus is particularly engaging, with clear hints…
Collaboration brings a beautiful folk album with words of love.This is Alela Diane’s seventh album, and the story behind it starts with the death at the age of eighty-three of her great friend Michael Hurley. He was a stalwart of the folk scene in Portland, Oregon, where Diane now lives. She had been looking after her young daughters and had put her music career a little on the back burner. However, playing at a tribute to Hurley inspired her and made her realise how much she wanted to connect to Portland’s musical community. She had been a solo performer on…

Aldous Harding’s voice contains multitudes, and you can never quite predict which character you’re going to get. Will it be the portentous priestess of “Horizon” or the fragile troubadour of “Warm Chris”? The haughty diva of “Fever” or the weird coquette of “Lawn”, or maybe those multiple personalities of “Leathery Whip”? Across Harding’s albums, but particularly since finding her idiosyncratic voice(s) on her second album, 2017’s Party, she has let the muse flow in diverse directions and bottled what comes out, considering herself more “song actor” than musician. The same goes for her free-range lyrics, pleasingly odd clashes of maxims,…
Hi Melissa! What was it like plunging back into the grunge glory years for your new memoir, Even The Good Girls Will Cry? The book wrote itself, all from memory and like a waterfall. I tell about the time that Courtney and I went to Milan Fashion Week and found ourselves backstage with Donatella Versace and all these supermodel boys offering themselves to us. A lot of the dark, heavy, complex stuff also came easily. I remembered too much, and I think it’s because I kept a diary and photographed so much that my memory lodged it in a very clear…
