Eyre Llew – Mortné
The first in a series of songs to be released for free on a monthly basis. If fragile, atmospheric ballads are your thing, Eyre Llew could be your new favourite band.
Saint Raymond – On Tour EP
An EP of tracks pulled together from previous releases to celebrate his tour with Ed Sheeran. Grab it for free.
Wanderlings – TV Fantasy
Lethargic, fuzzy hypnotic rock that feels like watching yourself fall from a great height in slow motion, from one of Nottingham’s most under-appreciated and idiosyncratic bands.
Moscow Youth Cult – Tenebris
Twisted chip-tune electronics that sounds like a rave in a burning Gameboy factory.
April Towers – Arcadia
Glossy synth-pop that’s been caning its parents A-ha and Ultravox records. With rumours of label interest, this debut single could be the start of something special.
Mighty Mouse featuring Ronika – See Through You
Where our Ron’eh tells us she’s “got 20/20 vision” over delirious nu-disco that turned our living room into the best disco in the NG while listening to it.
Mud Guts - The Violent An
Current Ear Vings frontman and all-round musical polymath Michael Wetherburn’s home demos sounding better than home demos have any right to sound.
Sygnys Okan – Tales From The Farside – Beat Tape Leap Faith
Arabic inspired mixtape where Eastern influences meet East Midland beats for meditative mindgasm. Repeat until a full Zen state is achieved.
Rob Green – Acoustic Sessions EP
This digital download is a pay whatever the hell you want deal. His recent performance with Natalie Duncan at Tempreh was a timely reminder of his natural charisma and charm, which is much evident here.
Paper Shop Dave – The Wild
Fragile indie melancholy that sounds like Foals doing their best Interpol impression with a must watch video portraying a young couple’s drug fuelled relationship.
Lords – Live
Beery, bluesy, bluezy. Much missed Notts ZZ Top obsessives have lobbed their entire back catalogue online including never before released material including this, their 123rd gig originally recorded for XFM.
