Junip have made something very special. The self-titled debut album from José González, Elias Araya and Tobias Winterkorn, takes the listener on a journey, opening up the deepest areas of one’s psyche, allowing the listener to reach within the caverns of their own being whilst also coming up for air …
They’ve been tipped by Annie Mac, been picked as one of MTV’s Brand New For 2013 artists, and have been name dropped by pretty much all the major tastemakers in UK music. Fans cover their songs acoustically on YouTube and made up dances to their #11 single ‘Latch’ featuring the …
Celebrating 50 years of producing legendary amps, iconic London audiophiles Marshall have launched the Major 50 FX; some of the tastiest looking headphones we’ve seen in years.

After taking a week off from our TGIF mixtape, it’s back! And with a vengeance. This time, we’ve selected a few tracks from some stand-out underground stars of UK grime & hip hop, namely a couple of tracks from members of the Last Night In Paris collective. Add in a …
