SUMMARY:Melanie C
DESCRIPTION:A bold\, uplifting anthem about resilience and inner strength\, ‘Undefeated Champion’ continues the joyful\, club-ready spirit of the Sweat era while delivering one of Melanie’s most empowering messages yet. Speaking about the new single\, Melanie C says: “‘Undefeated Champion’ is about getting knocked down and choosing to rise every single time. It’s a reminder that the hardest moments are the ones that make us stronger. It’s faith over fear\, joy in the face of adversity – almost challenging the universe: ‘come and have a go if you think you’re hard enough!’ At its core\, it’s about realising we’re far more resilient than we think.” \nThe release arrives alongside the announcement of The Melanie C World Tour\, a global run of shows set to bring the high-energy spirit of Sweat to fans around the world\, including a headline show at the O2 Academy Brixton on October 23rd\, 2026. Known for her electrifying live performances\, Melanie will celebrate both her pop legacy and her evolution as a DJ\, delivering a set that blends euphoric dancefloor energy with the iconic hits that have defined her career. Fans will have multiple opportunities to secure tickets in pre-sales and the general sale which will go live on Friday\, March 20th\, 2026 @ 10am local time. Full tour dates and ticket details below. \nBefore she became Mel C of the Spice Girls\, she was Melanie Chisholm of “The F**king Yeah Four”\, a group of 18-year-old friends dancing through the Costa Brava rave scene in the early ’90s. Those nights of breakbeats\, sweat and freedom would shape her forever. Decades later\, Melanie C channels that same raw energy into Sweat – her ninth studio album and most euphoric record to date. Recorded between London\, Stockholm and LA\, Sweat is a celebration of joy\, movement and community – a fusion of Melanie C’s pop legacy and her more recent evolution as a DJ. “I’ve done a lot of soul-searching\,” she says. “Now I just want to have some fun and get people dancing again.” \nThe new single lands amid a standout period for Melanie C. Recent highlights include headline performances and appearances at ABC Sydney New Year’s Eve\, New York’s Jingle Ball\, appearances on The Kelly Clarkson Show and Good Morning America\, plus viral moments alongside global pop phenomenon KATSEYE. Melanie was recently named Apple Music’s featured artist for their ‘Music That Moves Me’ playlist series\, as part of their January fitness activation.

SUMMARY:Starjunk 95
DESCRIPTION:Starjunk 95 is centred around a fictional\, anime-inspired crew of ragtag misfits that join forces to pilot an intergalactic radio station. Think Cowboy Bebop meets The Gorillaz & Daft Punk. \nRising electronic music sensation Starjunk 95 is thrilled to announce his highly anticipated debut tour across Europe throughout 2026. The tour marks a significant milestone for the innovative DJ and artist\, known for his genre-blending mix of lo-fi house\, vaporwave\, and future funk\, which has captivated audiences at clubs across the US\, UK\, and Canada. \nFollowing the success of his breakout singles ‘Groove District’ and ‘Beat Keep Rockin” and an entirely sold-out debut tour in summer of 2025\, Starjunk is bringing his signature sound and immersive live experience to iconic venues across the continent. \nA quote from the captain himself: “Several months ago I did a show in London not knowing what to expect. It was a small sweaty club on Glastonbury Weekend and it blew my mind that hundred of fans came and raved with me until 5AM. It was one of the best nights. Word’s spread from that show – all the messages\, comments\, and all of the fans asking when I was coming to Europe. The Fans made this tour happen and now it’s finally time to groove!”

SUMMARY:Elder Island
DESCRIPTION:Following last month’s sold out return to the stage in London and Bristol\, where fans were given a \nfirst glimpse of forthcoming album Hello Baby Okay\, Elder Island share new single ‘Letters’\, out 8th April via !K7. \n\nThe band also announced a headline tour\, marking a full return to the stage. The run kicks off in \nCardiff on 21st October\, with stops in Dublin\, Glasgow\, Leeds\, Manchester\, Brighton\, Bristol and \nLondon\, including a show at London’s iconic KOKO. \n\nRecently selected by Elton John for his Apple Music show Rocket Hour\, the fourth single from the \nforthcoming album\, ‘Letters’ sees the Bristol trio take a more introspective turn. Expansive and slow \nburning in its progression\, the track unfolds through layered instrumentation\, expressive vocals and a \nsteady\, chugging rhythm that carries it forward. There is a cinematic quality to its world building\, \ndrawing on fragments of science fiction and folk imagery\, all threaded through the feeling of a long\, \nopen-ended road trip. \n\nBuilt around a driving low end groove and analogue led production\, much of the track was shaped \nusing the Dave Smith / Roger Linn Tempest\, before being expanded with Rhodes and guitar. The \nresult is a quintessential Elder Island composition\, immersive\, detailed and emotionally resonant\, \nbalancing rhythmic momentum with a sense of space and restraint.

SUMMARY:Asher White
DESCRIPTION:Today\, Asher White\, the 25-year-old NYC-by-way-of-Rhode Island polymath behind some of the most inventive\, singular music in recent years\, announces her first ever run of UK/EU tour dates for Autumn 2026. Running through October and November 2026\, the shows take White across the UK and Ireland\, including a stop at Pitchfork London. \nIt marks the culmination of a prolific period following the release of her latest album 8 Tips For Full Catastrophe Living via Joyful Noise. The album has been widely praised for its fearless genre collision and conceptual scope\, with outlets including Pitchfork\, Rolling Stone\, NPR and Stereogum highlighting White’s distinctive creative voice. \n8 Tips For Full Catastrophe Living unfolds as a fractured self-help guide\, blending doom metal\, bossa nova\, power pop and industrial techno into a series of sonic collages. Across the record\, White explores themes of emotional collapse\, survival\, and absurdity in modern life\, delivered through surreal character studies and shifting musical forms. \nHer recent work has also included a full-length reimagining of Jessica Pratt’s debut album\, which received praise for its expansive reinterpretation of the original material\, as well as new single Nightingale Version (Sailor’s Moon)\, further showcasing her evolving songwriting and experimental approach. \n“White has a talent for melding elements that ought to sound out of place together\, instead making them seem right at home.”\nPitchfork \n“Younger artists have been obliterating genres for years\, but few can keep you guessing or leave you wanting more quite like Asher White.”\nNPR \n“Asher White is an Alex G-level prolific talent… it still feels like we’re only at the beginning of Asher White’s story.”\nStereogum

SUMMARY:Antony Szmierek
DESCRIPTION:Manchester-born poet\, writer\, and producer Antony Szmierek today announces his second album\, Decoding Birdsong\, arriving 21st August via Mushroom Music / Virgin Music Group. Just eighteen months after his critically acclaimed debut\, Szmierek returns with a new body of work that signals a clear evolution in both sound and scope. Rooted in his personal touchstones within electronic music\, the album pairs expansive\, immersive production with his trademark razor-sharp lyricism. \nAlongside the news\, he shares new single ‘Chalk’\, an expansive\, sawtoothed electro track inspired by the snooker documentary Ronnie O’Sullivan: The Edge of Everything. In his words\, “it’s about the idea that chalking a cue makes a marginal difference to the outcome – a metaphor for chaos theory and the win-or-lose nature of the music industry.” \n\nThe track premiered this morning on Lauren Laverne’s BBC 6 Music show and will appear on the upcoming album alongside his recent disco-inflected house single\, ‘The Heron’ — a nod to his avian companion Ken\, a 1920s taxidermied bird that also features on the album artwork. \nDecoding Birdsong follows the wild success of his debut album\, 2025’s Service Station at the End of the Universe\, which launched Antony into a whirlwind of Glastonbury\, Jools Holland\, and repeat BBC airplay. He’s sold out venues across the UK and Europe\, and in February 2026 performed to 20\,000 while closing Solomun’s Alexandra Palace shows. The former English teacher had been working at a college for special needs students when his blend of spoken word and dance music started taking off\, earning him accolades such as 6Music’s Artist of the Year in 2023 following his Poems To Dance To EP\, and frequent comparisons to Mike Skinner\, Jarvis Cocker and John Cooper Clarke. \n\nService Station at the End of the Universe was rooted in Greater Manchester\, its locals and landmarks\, such as the Stockport Pyramid. And he began feeling the consequences of that: suddenly\, everyone knew his name at the pub – on some days\, that felt good; on others it made him feel like he was in The Truman Show. Feeling like something needed to change after a year of experiencing the industry’s high highs and low lows\, Antony recently relocated to Bristol\, trading the familiar for distance and peace. Decoding Birdsong was made in his new home city\, with his long-time collaborator Max Rad. \n\nWhere his debut had been a solo endeavour\, Decoding Birdsong brims with collaboration\, including Australia’s Pretty Girl\, London band Los Bitchos\, and Bristol producer 1-800 GIRLS\, as well as Imogen and the Knife and indie pop star Ellur. \n\nSpeaking about the new record\, Antony explains “Decoding Birdsong is about choosing to believe in something. Coincidence as a religion. Making your own luck in the face of loneliness and doubt. The smallest things can feel seminal\, seismic and life affirming if you just choose to lean in\, but it also asks if this is a dangerous way to live.  \n\nWhat happens when your numbers come in? What are the consequences of luck? Should you listen to the birds\, or are you only ever going to hear what you want to hear? To help us explore this: a heron\, dice\, a plummeting airplane\, the late-night TV show Aussie Gold Hunters and a fibreglass replica of Godzilla.”

SUMMARY:Tortoise
DESCRIPTION:Tortoise is widely considered one of the most influential music groups of the last 40 years\, with a wide-reaching impact on the contemporary music scene. Pitchfork says: “Imagine a graphic showing all the bands the five members of Tortoise were in before they came together and then all the bands they went on to play with after. At the top of the funnel you have groups ranging from dreamy psych-rock to earthy post-punk crunch\, including Eleventh Dream Day\, Bastro\, Slint\, and the Poster Children; on the ‘post-Tortoise’ end are groups focusing on electro-jazz and twangy instrumental rock like Isotope 217\, Chicago Underground\, and Brokeback. In this graphic\, Tortoise is the choke point\, the one project that has elements of all these sounds but is never defined by nor committed to any of them. Instead\, Tortoise floats free\, a planchette moving over a Ouija board guided by 10 sets of fingers\, where everyone watches the arrow float in one direction but no one is quite sure how it gets there or who is doing the pushing.” \nThe band\, which originally formed in Chicago in 1990\, comprises Dan Bitney\, John Herndon\, Douglas McCombs\, John McEntire\, and Jeff Parker. \nInitially hailed as pace-setters of an emergent\, cinematic instrumental evolution of alternative rock\, the Chicago Tribune called Tortoise’s sound “mood music that refuses to be shoved into the background\, as inviting as it is challenging.”Releasing just seven albums since 1990 — including classics like 1996’s Millions Now Living Will Never Die\, 1998’s TNT\, and 2001’s Standards —Tortoise has steadily and intuitively evolved across its life\, creating genreless music that is as timeless as it is ahead of the curve. \nThe band’s legacy goes beyond its recorded output\, as well. Per the New York Times: “While Tortoise’s albums have experimented with the editing and overdubbing possibilities of the studio\, the band thrives performing in real time.” Rolling Stone deems Tortoise “a live marvel\,” while Pitchfork furthersays the band’s performances reveal that “at heart\, they’re a supremely fun band\, wide open to all sorts of sonic possibilities.” \nIn October 2025\, Tortoise released Touch\, the first new album from the groundbreaking group since 2016 via International Anthem and Nonesuch Records. Lead single “Layered Presence” featured a video filmed by Mikel Patrick Avery Watch the video\, listen to “Layered Presence\,” and preorder Touch here. \nWith Touch\, the Tortoise bandmembers — Dan Bitney\, John Herndon\, Douglas McCombs\, John McEntire\, and Jeff Parker — harness their collectivist songwriting approach\, a slightly anarchistic but resolutely egalitarian process where ideas triumph over ego towards an abstracted muscularity. While there are still excursions into the dusky\, elegantly gnarled jazz ambience that flourished on landmark works like Millions Now Living Will Never Die and TNT\, Touch is perhaps most remarkable for Tortoise’s unapologetic embrace of grand gesture. Aerodynamically re-engineered Krautrock\, hand-cranked techno rave-ups\, and pointillist spaghetti western fanfares are all imbued with Tortoise’s now-signature internal logic — equally alluring and confounding\, a puzzle to be savored rather than solved. \nThe stylistic diversity is also a reflection of the band’s current operating circumstances: With two members now in Los Angeles\, another in Portland\, and just two remaining in the band’s Chicago hometown\, their creative process has shifted dramatically from when they lived together in a loft space in the late 1990s\, honing their sound over endless hours of collective experimentation. \nRecorded between the three cities — Los Angeles\, Portland\, and Chicago — Touch is the result of an intentional effort by these five musicians to reconnect\, recenter\, and reinvigorate their sound for what is perhaps the group’s most diverse release to date. \nTouch is the culmination of a long-gestating reunion\, the results of which Tortoise first shared this past March\, when they released “Oganesson” — “an off-kilter\, 7/4 funk tune with a spy-movie ambience” (New York Times) that is included on the new album — ahead of a career-spanning opening night performance at the boundary-crossing music festival Big Ears. They followed that with the Oganesson Remixes EP\, which featured reworks of the track from poet and activist Saul Williams\, prolific mastering engineer Heba Kadry\, Black Keys drummer Patrick Carney\, indie music icons Broken Social Scene\, and International Anthem labelmate Makaya McCraven.

SUMMARY:JOACHIM COODER & ADRIANO VITERBINI
DESCRIPTION:There is a somewhat quiet giant making their way around America\, Europe\, and a few other territories that isn’t always noticed\, but when he’s there\, there is no way to ever overlook his music. Joachim Cooder is one-of-a-kind. That is all there is to it. He plays a variety of instruments\, writes songs that seem to come from a slightly different universe and is unforgettable once seen and heard. Cooder has a handful of recordings now\, and every one is absolutely unforgettable. Which isn’t hard to understand once it’s clear what kind of musical discoveries he’s had in his life\, and one he continues to chase with the kind of energy of a champion athlete. One of Cooder’s true calling cards is how his music is able to float in air. He is not tied to the tyranny of a snare drum or any one instrument. What the man is able to do is a blend of percussion\, strings\, vocals\, and other wonders without names into a breathing animal all its own. This really is popular music for people beyond popularity. People that live in a time of their own. \nJoachim Cooder grew up surrounded by music alongside his father\, legendary guitarist Ry Cooder who took him on the road at an early age on the drums\, playing both live and in the studio. These touring and recording projects allowed him to share stages and recordings with Johnny Cash\, Ali Farka Touré\, V. M. Bhatt\, Steve Earle\, John Lee Hooker\, Dr. John\, Nick Lowe\, Mavis Staples\, The Happy Mondays\, and most notably the award winning project The Buena Vista Social Club which has sold more than eight million copies worldwide and entered the book of Guinness World Records as the best-selling world music album of all time.

SUMMARY:MODERN LOVERS - MGNA Crrrta & ideasforconversations
DESCRIPTION:MGNA Crrrta is the electronic girl duo Farheen Khan & Ginger Scott. Obsessed with designer dresses\, heat tools\, aliens\, uncovering the secrets of the universe\, psychedelic pics\, and gritty synthesizers\, MGNA Crrrta creates music that feels like an angsty endless daydream. Inspired by Ke$ha\, Grimes\, and Crystal Castles\, the girls chase the euphoria and Pür Love. \nThe release of their mixtape Beautiful Disaster on February 20\, that has drawn the attention of tastemakers including Pitchfork\, Dazed\, i-D\, and V Magazine. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNYC-based dance duo ideasforconversations’ music feels refreshingly optimistic\, telling bright sonic stories through glitchcore breaks and vocal chops. \nThe two musicians are opposites in many ways\, but that’s one of the things that makes a duo so powerful\, especially in electronic music\, where you can basically make anything happen. It’s the beauty of modernity\, often abused\, but so\, so\, harmonious when treated with care. \nTheir first solo EP\, No Bad Words\, is one such project\, both purposeful and chaotic as it moves between manipulated vocals and frequencies in ways that are almost entirely unfamiliar\, but still somewhat nostalgic\, with a vast sound catalog and truly unconventional ways of fusing together ideas. \nNo wonder they’re booking so many gigs.

DESCRIPTION:Origin stories reenact familiar myths; this one begins with a kid alone in a bedroom\, trying to make something no one has heard before. Hailing from San Francisco\, Filipino-American artist April Harper Grey started making music as underscores in middle school\, when years of noodling around on GarageBand culminated in the realization that\, if taken seriously enough\, this whole “trying to be like Skrillex” thing might amount to something great. \nFor years\, underscores released a steady stream of one-offs via SoundCloud\, which endeared her to like minded artists and a burgeoning community of fans\, but it wasn’t until 2017\, with the release of EP skin purifying treatment\, that the project stepped out of its solitary origins and began to capture the attention of a much larger audience. In 2021\, underscores released the debut underscores album\, fishmonger\, which was written and recorded in that same childhood bedroom amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. \nThat collection launched underscores from recording vocals in a car to opening for 100 Gecs on the U.S. leg of the 10\,000 Gecs tour. Before hitting the road\, underscores released yet another collection\, boneyard aka fearmonger\, a collection of seven tracks that manages to sound like both the climax of and the morning after the craziest night of your life. On the heels of 10\,000 Gecs\, the first underscores mini-tour sold out in NY\, LA\, Chicago\, and underscores’s hometown of San Francisco. Since then\, underscores has played Lollapalooza’s Main Stage\, Electric Forest\, FVDED in the Park\, and Corona Capital CDMX. \nIndependent since the project’s inception\, underscores signed to Mom+Pop last year. She also debuted “Count of three (You can eat $#@!)” – co-written with Dylan Brady (of 100 Gecs)\, Cashmere Cat\, Benny Blanco – on 100 Gecs’ Dog Show Records. Since dropping boneyard aka fearmonger\, she’s produced music for Alice Longyu Gao\, glaive\, Whethan\, and renforshort. The world eagerly awaits the next underscores record\, Wallsocket\, knowing it will jolt us out of reverie. That is\, after all\, underscores’s ethos: “When people listen to underscores\, I want their initial reaction to be\, ‘This is ridiculous.’ But the more they listen to it\, they should hear the nuance in it\, the heaviness in it\, and I hope they connect with it on some kind of emotional level. The ultimate goal is to turn people off\, then win them back.”

SUMMARY:CAR BOMB
DESCRIPTION:Originally formed on Long Island\, New York in 2000\, Car Bomb is a band whose style is marked by a highly experimental and extremely aggressive approach to metal. Their unpredictable blend of evolving polyrhythms\, shifting tempos\, syncopated down-tuned guitars\, jazz-influenced drumming\, harmonically deconstructive riffing\, and dynamic vocals create a sound that is pulverizingly heavy and intensely disorienting. They create music that is fluid and ever changing\, and are not afraid of veering off on bold melodic tangents. This unique sound combined with a strong DIY work ethic and a continuously growing fan base has earned them the opportunity to tour with larger acts in the genre. \nCar Bomb released their debut album Centralia on Relapse Records in 2007\, and supported the record on US tours with High on Fire in 2008 and Gojira in 2009. They self-released their second album w^w^^w^w (pronounced “w-click-w” or “the waveform album”) in 2012. It featured guest vocals by Joseph Duplantier of Gojira\, whom they’d again tour with later that year. In 2014\, Car Bomb was invited to tour Europe for the first time\, opening up for Meshuggah on their 25th anniversary tour. \nCar Bomb released their third album Meta in the fall of 2016\, which again featured Joseph Duplantier who this time also shared a co-production credit with Greg Kubacki. The album also features Frank Mullen of Suffocation and was mixed by Josh Wilbur (Korn\, Megadeth\, Lamb of God\, Parkway Drive). The band kicked off the release with shows supporting Gojira and Tesseract as well as opening for The Dillinger Escape Plan on their farewell US tour. In early 2017\, Car Bomb headed back to Europe/UK opening up for Gojira. The band then headlined their own European tour in September before returning to the US in October to support Animals as Leaders and Periphery. \nThe band is currently headquartered at Silvercord Studios in Brooklyn\, New York

SUMMARY:MUNA
DESCRIPTION:MUNA’s journey has always been about bringing to light the complex\, messy\, ecstatic realities of life\, and with their fourth album\, Dancing On The Wall\, they’ve never been sharper\, darker\, or more exhilarating. \nEmerging from the sparkly\, confetti-strewn heights of their 2022 self-titled record\, MUNA now channel the raw\, anxious\, and sweat-soaked energy of living in a city (Los Angeles) of unrelenting heat\, a corrupted world wrought by political tension\, and the quieter and more personal pressures of millennial precarity and heartache in these uncertain times. \nThe result is a record that feels both intimate and spectacular: a fast-paced\, hard-edged dance pop world built with teeth\, wit\, and emotional resonance—a soundtrack for hearts on fire amidst the tumult of modern life. \nDancing On The Wall is MUNA doing what they do best: capturing the cultural moment\,  the oversaturated\, escapist spectacle of contemporary life\,  and bending it to their own vision. Influenced by dance\, post-punk\, synth-pop and new wave\, the songs are drenched in a metallic sheen yet carry a brooding melancholy that undercuts the hedonistic highs. The tension between propulsive instrumentals and the band’s classically introspective and thoughtful lyricism drives the album’s restless pulse. \nAcross the record\, MUNA explores desire\, intimacy\, and connection against a backdrop of a world in flux. There’s a quiet reckoning throughout the album with how to keep living\, loving\, and reaching for one another while living in these times. Tracks like “Wannabeher” capture the dizzying thrill of stepping fully into someone else’s fantasy. “So What” is a somber epic that muses on post-party loneliness\, while “Why Do I Get A Good Feeling” lingers long after the frenetic beat ends\, the swirl of strings and vocals becoming a meditation on suspended possibilities. The album closes with “Buzzkiller\,” a stark reckoning with desire and its aftermath\, the ache of achieving what you wanted only to realise new questions\, doubts\, and hungers remain. \nWhile Dancing On The Wall is unafraid of its darkness\, it’s also a record of exuberance\, wit\, and communal joy. MUNA’s songs transport listeners to dancefloors where heat is friction\, where longing meets the ecstatic\, and where the uncertainty of life becomes a soundtrack for living fully. “We still fall in and out of love. We reach out to one another. Perhaps it’s a call to step outside the algorithm and into the richness of our lives\,” the band says\,  a sentiment that runs through the record’s core. \nMUNA were selected by Harry Styles as the first support act he took out on his debut solo tour\, and have since shared stages with Taylor Swift on the Eras Tour\, Lorde\, boygenius\, and Phoebe Bridgers. From sold-out club shows to festival main stages\, they’ve grown into pop artists who command both spectacle and intimacy with equal confidence. \nTheir previous work\, including the viral hit “Silk Chiffon\,” has earned hundreds of millions of streams and widespread acclaim\, alongside TV appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon\, The Late Late Show with James Corden\, Jimmy Kimmel Live\, The Ellen DeGeneres Show\, and Good Morning America. The band also maintains a devoted following across Instagram\, Tiktok\, and Spotify—but their ability to convert these followers and listeners into fans who ardently follow them across the globe for their euphoric concerts sets them apart. \nThe record is produced by Naomi McPherson\, with their trademark attention to detail blending effortlessly with bandmate Josette Maskin’s well-honed behind-the-scenes pop technique to create living\, breathing worlds for lead singer Katie Gavin’s incisive lyricism and signature voice. Dancing On The Wall blends euphoric sonic landscapes with sharp\, human storytelling. The album reflects a fiercely self-directed creative process\, one shaped by instinct\, trust\, and total artistic control. It feels lived-in\, urgent\, and cinematic\,  a reflection of a generation navigating uncertainty while refusing to let go of joy. With this album\, MUNA proves once again that pop can be daring\, intimate\, and socially conscious all at once: a record that doesn’t just capture the moment\, but distills it into a world you want to inhabit. \nA portion of the proceeds from MUNA’s Get So Hot Tour will go to TAC and their work supporting LGBTQ Youth and Queer Migrants across the US.

SUMMARY:De Staat
DESCRIPTION:De Staat has built a reputation as one of Europe’s most inventive and fearless live acts. With six studio albums and numerous live shows under their belt\, the band has consistently pushed the boundaries of what a rock band can be. From the pounding rally cries of ‘Witch Doctor’ to the razor-sharp commentary of ‘KITTY KITTY’\, De Staat has long explored themes of demagoguery and mass manipulation. De Staat has played – and in some cases headlined – major festivals including SXSW\, Glastonbury\, Lowlands\, Sziget\, Boomtown\, Rock for People\, Pukkelpop\, Rock Werchter and Deichbrand and toured with bands like The Rolling Stones\, Muse\, and Biffy Clyro. \nTheir music-spanning industrial grooves\, heavy riffs\, experimental electronics\, and pop sensibility – has been featured in global campaigns and games\, winning Edison Awards\, 3FM Awards\, multiple music video awards\, a Bernays Lifetime Achievement Award and international critical acclaim. \nAfter two years of silence\, De Staat returns with a long-awaited\, seventh self-titled album\, art installation and live show\, marking nearly 25 years of pushing boundaries in the art rock landscape. Their latest creation taps into today’s dystopian anxieties like never before\, where power\, populism\, and control collide\, gradually erasing the line between reality and fiction.

SUMMARY:Master Boot Record & Fulci
DESCRIPTION:Computer-metal project Master Boot Record and death metal outfit Fulci have now announced a huge co-headline show for The Academy\, Dublin on Friday\, 13th November 2026. \nTickets from €32.50 (inc booking fee & venue facility fee) from Ticketmaster.ie. Bookings subject to 12.5% service charge per ticket (max €10.50) \nABOUT MASTER BOOT RECORD: Master Boot Record (aka MBR) is a Computer Metal project founded in 2016 by producer Vittorio D’amore mixing together heavy metal and synthesized electronic music. \nStarting in 2016 releasing albums under the indie chiptune/demoscene label Data Airlines has moved in 2018 to Blood Music to expand its audience to the electronic scene. In 2019 MASTER BOOT RECORD settled with Metal Blade Records\, the historic metal label based in Los Angeles to release the latest two albums “Floppy Disk Overdrive (2020)” and “Personal Computer (2022)” helping the project to gain increased popularity worldwide. MBR has also produced the video game “VirtuaVerse” as well as its original soundtrack. VirtuaVerse was released in 2020 on all gaming platforms as well as Nintendo Switch\, Xbox and Playstation. The project as a live band increased their live activity in 2022 including live performing artists such as the guitar virtuoso and Ibanez endorser Edoardo Taddei at lead guitars and technical death metal drummer Giulio Galati. \n MBR released 14 albums so far with multiple record labels and has been one of the most successful musicians on US digital distribution platform Bandcamp charting #1 in general charts several times. Because of that Bandcamp often featured the albums and made interviews directly with the artist. \nThe rapid growth of the project sparked an intense live activity with several tours in Europe and North American as well as participating to festivals such as Super Mag Fest (USA)\, Resurrection Fest (Spain)\, Brutal Assault (Czech Republic)\, Wacken Open Air (Germany)\, Baroeg Open Air (Netherlands)\, Resistanz Festival (UK)\, SWR Fest (Portugal)\, Frantic Fest (Italy).  \nIn 2024–2025\, MASTER BOOT RECORD expanded globally with the release of “Hardwarez” (Metal Blade Records\, October 2024)\, followed by an extensive world tour across North America\, Canada\, the UK\, and Europe between September and November 2024\, totaling more than 40 shows. \nThe band recently toured as support for the french electronic metal band Igorrr across Europe and is confirmed to perform at more European festival such as Brutal Assault\, Mystic Festival\, Motocultor\, Arc Tangent and more to be announced. \nThe plans for 2026 include a full North American tour in Spring and a full European / UK tour during the fall that are ready for announcement. \n  \nABOUT FULCI: Fulci is the death metal band named after the “Godfather of gore” Lucio Fulci. The band combines the two\nthings they like the most: horror movies and death metal. \nLucio Fulci films had a strong influence on the aesthetics of extreme music. Fulci’s intent is to pay homage to the maestro by creating concept albums based on his films. The band released three discs till now\, some of which have reached their 6th reissue. We did four USA tours as headliners plus several festivals and apparitions in Europe and South Africa. In 2023 we released a live session in Tampa\, Florida at the Morrisound Studios where American death metal was born. in 2024 will be released our 4th album via 20 Buck Spin Records. Fulci live shows try to resemble cinematic experiences through video projections\, lights\, synthesizers and horror staging. \nIn September 2023 we played a show in a movie theatre presenting our first short movie and soundtrack release. We have a regular collaboration with the fashion brand Slam Jam to develop events\, products and performances. We have a strong fanbase and among others we have been mentioned by Max Cavalera\, Eli Roth and Dwid Helion. KERRANG! Magazine gave us the 35th place on the chart of the 50 bands that have revitalized death metal over the past 10 years.

SUMMARY:Feeble Little Horse
DESCRIPTION:feeble little horse is naturally delighted to present their third full-length LP\, bitknot. The album \nwas written\, arranged\, produced\, and recorded by Sebastian Kinsler\, Lydia Slocum\, and Jake \nKelley across their respective homes in Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania. \nA spirited investigation into the unnatural space created between human nature and a culture of \nconvenience\, a synthesis of dirt and digital\, bitknot by feeble little horse creates a language \nwherein one can re-imbue a sanctity of interdependence away from consumptive “self- \nsufficiency” and materialism. “The album art is based on the coincidental core memory matrix\, \nwhich was used in old computers to store memory / access information using 0s and 1s. Each \ncore\, or ‘bit\,’ is accessed through the grid of wires\, like a knot that stores secret details and \nmemories.” bitknot asks that we find new modes of being through this grid\, entrusting one \nanother with the collaborative construction of these knots. This negotiation with an ever- \ndeveloping hybrid reality is expertly exemplified in the album’s production – the buoyancy of \nKinsler’s arrangements provide a perfectly balanced surface tension for the weight of Slocum’s \nmeandering introspection as they playfully harmonize against saccharine hooks\, walls of noise\, \na supercharged car battery’s worth of synths and samples dropped in the ocean of their guitar- \ndriven songwriting framework\, and some of Kelley’s most laser-focused drums to date to create \na sonic chimera that is as likely to be found nascently developing in the early aughts as some \nunknown\, chromatic future. \nRhymes written with sidewalk chalk that refuse to be erased in the Anthropocene’s acid rain of \ndestructive relationships\, Herbert Marcuse’s One-Dimensional Man manifest through the spirit \nof a young woman born in the shadow of the Steel City’s industrial ghosts\, a study of the clumsy \nalchemy of IRL and WWW – it is within these rhizomatic contradictions that bitknot proliferates.

SUMMARY:Spike F**k
DESCRIPTION:For ten years Melbourne’s Spike Fuck has existed more as a messy myth than an artist – sporadic works forever poised on the precipice of triumph\, rumours of death or insanity and so on. Spike’s foray into music in 2015 served a cultural fantasy\, not by any overarching sense of ambition\, but rather a would-be\, cosplay pop star arrested by his own devices and whose melancholy wove through unlikely cultural circles. \n  \nHis sole body of work\, The Smackwave EP (Partisan Records)\, addressed themes as literal as the title suggests: drug use\, gender identity\, religion and existentialism. Soon after its release\, Spike was swept up in the whirlwind of unexpected success\, moving from underground warehouse parties to being draped in high fashion and editorial photoshoots accompanied by interviews\, in which he gave unrelenting and uncensored details of his life. \nReturning in 2024 after a four-year hiatus\, Spike has returned sober\, clear-eyed\, and transformed. Spike is no longer alone with a backing track\, but fronting a rotating full band. Together they channel ’70s glam\, spiritual soul\, and damaged rock’n’roll; always refracted through Spike’s unmistakable\, bruised\, and poetic voice.

DESCRIPTION:Adult DVD are on the precipice of something big…whether tapping into their love for chorus-centric indie or the influence of acid house floor fillers\, DJing\, or remixing their musical contemporaries their core appeal remains consistent: undeniable humour\, bold danceable instrumentals and instantly memorable songwriting. \nFormed by vocalist Harry Hanson and synth-player Greg Lonsdale\, the project has quickly expanded to a full band with Danny Blackburn (guitar/synth)\, Jake Williams (synth)\, Jonathan Newell (drums)\, and George Manson (bass). \nThe band have received extensive early press support including being tipped by Rolling Stone UK as a ‘Ones To Watch For 2026’\, plus they have been playlisted at BBC 6 Music and had support from BBC Radio 1 and more.

SUMMARY:Nimino
DESCRIPTION:​​nimino is one of the most exciting names in electronic music. His 2024 hit I Only Smoke When I Drink has surpassed 250 million streams\, charted on the UK Singles Chart\, and spent over 20 weeks on Billboard’s Dance/Electronic Chart. He followed I Only Smoke When I Drink with his Creek EP in March 2025\, which was then followed by a series of notable single releases. nimino has performed at major festivals such as Coachella\, Lollapalooza\, Leeds Fest\, Boomtown\, Field Day\, Cercle\, CRSSD\, and Lightning in a Bottle\, as well as sold-out headline shows at venues globally. He is signed to Ninja Tune’s Counter Records. Before he began releasing and performing music under the moniker nimino\, Milo Evans’ musical journey started in his teenage years growing up in the UK as a way to channel his ADHD. \nBeginning with simple loop-stitching on an Asus laptop\, music quickly became an obsession. By the time he finished studying music technology in Brighton\, he had created the equivalent of eight albums’ worth of material. His first release as nimino in 2013—a slo-mo\, bass-inflected take on Pixies’ Where Is My Mind—marked the beginning of his career when it amassed hundreds of thousands of plays on SoundCloud and earned him the title of Huffington Post’s “Artist of the Month.” \nBy 2020\, nimino had cultivated an engaged community across his social platforms and launched a series called songs for people you may know\, where he created custom songs for fans. “I’d go on Instagram\, and people would give me ideas to build a song around\,” he explains. “It felt like a perfect way to connect with fans and show how fast I could make a decent song in a variety of styles.” Early in the series\, someone requested a track that would be the perfect festival opener. “I made something with a long build-up and a huge emotional drop. A week or so later\, I played it live\, and people went crazy. ” That track\, Opening Credits\, released in 2022\, quickly became a fan favorite. Since then\, nimino has released several singles and an EP\, with each new release continuing the journey of the nimino character through its artwork. “The nimino character symbolizes the journey my musical tastes have taken—more so by the environments he’s ended up in through no choice of his own. The travels he goes on accompany the music I’m making\, and vice versa\, but he’s also sort of nothing to do with me personally—just a little guy on an expedition through different spaces\, discovering different sounds.”

SUMMARY:Alborosie
DESCRIPTION:ALBOROSIE – NINE MILE UK TOUR  \nThe most Jamaican of the Sicilians  \nWith over 100 million streams and more than 10 million monthly listeners across all platforms in 2024\, Alborosie is undoubtedly the international reggae benchmark! Two years after the release of his album Destiny\, Pupa Albo is back this year with a new opus. \nAlborosie has built up a solid reputation with over 1\,000 concerts across the globe. After a major world tour in 2025\, he’s back on the road to support the release of his new album and to offer his fans some exceptional live moments where new singles will rub shoulders with must-have tracks from his vast musical catalogue. \nReal name Alberto D’Ascola\, this Sicilian with giant dreadlocks left his native land to reach Jamaica and fully embrace this culture that he feels. Living on this island for over 20 years\, Alborosie is an ultra prolific artist who has been shaking up the roots reggae world since 1993. Roots\, rub-a-dub\, raggamuffin\, dancehall and dub are all part of the authentic reggae expression and no one embraces these styles with such reverence\, joy and vibrancy than Alborosie. \nWith a discography including cult albums like “Soul Pirate”\, and flagship tracks from its beginnings\, like “Kingston Town” or “Herbalist”\, true anthems of several generations\, Alborosie has become one of the most listened international reggae artists in the world. \nAlborosie is committed to authentic reggae\, to honoring and preserving its heritage. He notably collaborates with many of today’s leading artists like Ky-Mani Marley\, Joe Mersa Marley\, Collie Buddz\, Roots Radics\, The Wailers United\, King Jammy… and also produces music for several Jamaican stars\, including the recent Wailing Souls album “Back A Yard”. These works are a testament to his study of the origins of reggae\, and his contribution to its future. \nAlborosie\, who in 2011 made history as the first white artist to win the M.O.B.O (Music of Black Origin) Awards in the Best Reggae Act category\, gained stature and purpose. As an artist and producer\, and as a voice for change. Along with the recording of his latest opus\, in December 2020 Alborosie recorded and released “Shadows After Dark”\, teaming up with Christopher Martin\, Etana\, Romain Virgo\, Morgan Heritage and many others to raise awareness of the perils of Human Trafficking in Jamaica. \nThis globetrotter has cut his teeth on tour and has been defending his culture on stages around the world for over 15 years. From his beginnings he took care to be accompanied by exceptional musicians who today constitute the “Clan Shengen”. On stage\, his vocal mastery allows him to simultaneously sweep all the styles that make up reggae\, to toasting his greatest hits as well as fetching notes worthy of opera. His almost limitless vocal abilities make his performances unique and his shows are acclaimed and acclaimed by an eclectic and multigenerational audience. \n“Destiny”\, released on May 26th 2023 (Greensleeves Records / VP Records / Shengen Entertainment)\, boasts an impressive list of collaborators with featured guest performances from such luminaries as Kabaka Pyramid\, Buju Banton\, Jaz Elise and Burro Banton to name but a few. In 2024\, he released his latest album\, “Dub Pirate\,” his seventh adventure into dub music. Alborosie showcases his production talents by remixing twelve emblematic songs from “Soul Pirate.”

SUMMARY:Morgana
DESCRIPTION:Fresh from RTE’s Late Late Show\, a special performance in an Amazonian Opera House\, performing at Paris Fashion Week and opening for Snow Patrol on a series of massive outdoor shows this summer\, Morgana’s momentum is undeniable. Before releasing any music she had already supported CMAT across North America and Europe and opened for Dermot Kennedy. Her recent single “I’m Not Going Anywhere” hit 100k streams in just two weeks and her Other Voices St James’ Church performance was selected for broadcast on BBC4\, ahead of sold-out headline shows in Dublin and London. Her new single “Fix Your Heart For Free”\, out May 20th\, sees Morgana flex her full vocal range as she showcases operatic vocal techniques over luscious indie pop instrumental. \n  \nPraised by Una Mullally in Irish Times as “a hugely sensitive performer… you can feel the 10\,000 hours behind her\,” Morgana brings a voice that stops rooms. \nShe first gained attention as a solo artist before co-founding Saint Sister\, whose journey included opening for Robbie Williams\, Keane\, Tori Amos\, Hozier and The National\, plus a spellbinding NPR Tiny Desk Concert. With millions of streams and a devoted following\, Morgana’s next chapter is a solo journey into kaleidoscopic popstar-dom. Her music is a mantra: prepared to party\, ready to cry. Fans of CMAT\, Kate Bush\, Sharon Van Etten\, and Chappell Roan will fall in love with Morgana’s technicoloured\, tearful disco.

SUMMARY:Foggy Notions presents: Gold Panda
DESCRIPTION:Gold Panda returns with TON UP\, a brilliantly stubborn new album for Studio Barnhus: eight rough-hewn dance tracks and two cozy little service-station interludes\, all crafted with the robust determination of a producer who knows that 140 bpm is not so much a tempo as a way of life.\n\nMade with Derwin Dicker‘s unmistakable sampler-bashing touch\, the tracks on Ton Up carry the raw knock of old-school hip-hop instrumentals\, pushed through pumping house-music machinery and ready to cause absolute trouble on any half-decent sound system.\n\nHere you’ll find zero of that dreaded\, over-explained “maturity” usually demanded of beloved electronic artists several albums deep into the game. Instead\, Gold Panda just sounds as happily locked in as ever\, carelessly chasing the physical joys of pressure\, swing and repetition.\n\nTON UP is functional\, funny and oddly tender club music\, arriving just when the world needed it the most (June 26 that is.)

SUMMARY:Good Health Good Wealth
DESCRIPTION:The slice-of-life narrative of their recent single ‘Full Circle’ showed that Good Health Good Wealth possess a flair for making life’s minor moments feel like they’re worth documenting. The track hurried their rise\, adding a Radio X session\, shows with Noisy and Hard-Fi\, and a place in The Sun’s New Faces For 2025 to their burgeoning status after previous Radio 1 support from Jack Saunders and Sian Eleri. Now the duo live up to that support as they share the new single ‘The Cafe’. \nForget about your bougie hipster breakfast destinations\, as Good Health Good Wealth instead take us into a classic old school cafe beloved by locals who have seemingly been attending since the dawn of time. As sausages sizzle and cutlery clanks\, it’s the setting for a break-up song with a difference: in this case\, a final summit that won’t deliver any closure for either party. Bruce Breakey’s distinct spoken word drawl breaks into a passionate\, soulful flow as the emotion of the story takes over\, while producer Simon Kuzmickas shows his versatility with sparse beats\, mournful slide guitar and a redemptive psych-rock finale. \nBruce says\, “A break-up only ever works\, at least from my experience\, if you cut it off completely. The odd catch-up back down your favourite cafe is never going to be that simple. This song is about navigating that tricky grey area between the initial break-up and the actual break-up. As comforting\, familiar or exciting it may be to meet up for a chat\, someone has to rip off the plaster eventually.” \nBoth ‘The Cafe’ and ‘Full Circle’ provide a taste of the relatable city snapshots and diverse sonics that permeate their upcoming EP. The pair have cited the likes of Ian Dury\, The Streets and Madness as influences\, and they’re all present in their observational songs. Yet this is music for 2025\, its stories replicated within walking distance of your front door and underpinned by touches of contemporary and ‘90s-tinged electronica. \nWhile Bruce is a lifelong east Londoner\, Simon was born 1300 miles away in Vilnius\, Lithuania and was raised on a diet of British culture. Perhaps English life wasn’t entirely how he imagined it to be\, but he very naturally fit in amongst the nation’s dry wit and almost comic pessimism. Naturally they met – where else? – in a pub. \nGood Health Good Wealth played their first international gig late last year when they hit Viva Sounds in Sweden. Next up is a London headline show at The Lower Third which sold-out three months in advance. Their schedule also includes a Birmingham show with Oneda\, their New York debut at The New Colossus Festival\, and the Get Together Festival which features headliners English Teacher.
