Have you ever seen Charlotte Carpenter operate heavy farm machinery? Ever wanted to? Assuming your answers were 'no' followed by an emphatic 'yes!' then do we have a treat for you. Charlotte's latest video is a cinematic clip filmed on a farm in her hometown, including  tumultuous skies, sweeping scenery and deft tractor skills. The track, titled 'Mean Time,' is the second release from Charlotte's fifth EP The Fault Line, which was released on 13th November. Check the video out below. Of the...

By Lewis Bunney (@bunneylewis)   Finding its origins in the Brighton club scene just two years ago, Mute has become a force to be reckoned with in the party scene, expanding their club nights to include venues across London and Manchester. With several heavyweight acts signed up for their second birthday celebrations, including UK garage and grime pioneer DJ Slimzee, TLE thought it would be a great time to catch up with Co-Founder and Director of Mute, Jack Lydon. TLE:...

By Eleanor Stammeijeir (@ElStammjam) 11.11.15. Under The Bridge, London It’s safe to say that Under the Bridge is officially my new favourite venue, and not just because of the name. It was the perfect place for Skye’s showcase of her latest album, In A Low Light. Not only were the people at the venue wonderful, but their toilets had two wins in the 2014 ‘Loo of the Year Awards’. If that doesn’t raise the bar for music venues all around,...

By Kane Power (@ElHeavio) Everything I read about USA Nails makes them seem like they don’t give a shit. Their press quotes and statements about their work are blasé to the point of self deprecation. Just take a look at their video 'You Sing For Yourself' and you would be forgiven for thinking they're taking the piss. New record No Pleasure reflects this typically punk attitude with a modern lo-fi, raw sound, but digging a little deeper gives the impression...

By Eleanor Stammeijer (@ElStammjam) Before spinning Wings for the first time Mozez was an unknown to me. Since then he has become a solid fixture on my iTunes. Polished vocals, an all-out performance with moments of enjoyable restraint, Wings demonstrates the nuances of R ‘n’ B, and how singing the loudest or packing every track with every altered instrument under the sun isn’t how it should be done. Wings is the headliner for the album, and it doesn’t disappoint. It...

By Joe Mellor, Deputy Editor Peep Show is back on 11th November for its final series and I am addicted to the show; yes this list is lazy journalism, but who cares, every one of these lines is comedy gold. There are loads of others that could go in here, but these 44 are a pretty decent bunch, I hope you will agree. 1."Brown for first course, white for pudding. Brown’s savoury, white’s the treat. Of course I’m the one...

By Simon Coxall (@mushybees) Imagine you're preparing a meal for someone you really ​want to impress. Your starter if the firm foundation of the whole experience. That initial choice can set the tone for the whole evening, it may end in the love of your life, the greatest of friendships... You choose prawn cocktail. A limp lettuce leaf, some off-brand ketchup and mayonnaise whisked together, semi-defrosted prawns, all heaped together in a wine glass you got from a petrol station...

”I've booked you in for the usual soapy tit wank farewell at No. 10.”

By Declan Roberts (@DeclanMR) For a trio from Liphook, an unassuming town in Hampshire, Blaenavon certainly make an impact. Their back catalogue, which includes the Koso EP and debut double A-side single 'Into the Night / Denim Patches' jumps rock barriers many fear to cross, and their new EP, Miss World is a step up in momentum for the band. The shattering opening chord of 'Hell Is My Head' accompanies a delightfully basic Nirvana-esque drum line, with a space-echo guitar...
