Here's what our music editor reckoned to some of Notts' latest releases...
Haggard Cat – American Graffiti
Former Heck pair make bluesy rock mischief, freshly signed to the mighty Earache Records.
Jonjo ft Motormouf – Cherry Tree
Impressive debut from the producer whose shadowy beats tangle in the undergrowth with Motormouf's intense rhymes.
Death Party UK – My Own Way
Gothabilly surf duo make retro camp goth party music. Like Herman Munster at an orgy.
Sheku Kanneh-Mason - No Woman No Cry
The Bob Marley & The Wailers classic is transformed into a solo classical piece by the prodigal cellist. Wouldn't be out of place in a lift.
Indiana - Birthday Boy
Solo dancer preps us for album number two with this sizzling electro-pop teaser.
Master Tofu Ft. Scorzayzee and Mr. Switch - Untitled
Transatlantic tag team with Notts represented through Mr Switch's dextrous turntable scratches and Scorz's laid-back delivery.
Katie Cooper Ft. Brandon Hill - Time
Introspective yet effervescent futuristic pop music from the accomplished performer.
Those Howlin’ Sounds – Twenty Five
These garage-rock upstarts already sound like the real deal on this scuzzy racket.
