Gin Wigmore has released the second part of her video accompaniment to 'Written In The Water', the lead single from upcoming album Blood To Bone. The third album from the NZ native will arrive on our shores on 2nd October but has already achieved chart-topping status in her home country. In the meantime 'Written In The Water' is a great track for the uninitiated, introducing Gin's raw pop style. The videos tell a reverse Bonnie and Clyde tale over 2 installments, Live However...
2015 has been an awesome year for LP releases. To narrow down the top contenders for best record of 2015 so far I asked our writers to contribute some suggestions. The response was...eclectic. Have a read below and let us know your thoughts in the comments. The Armed – Untitled It wasn't until the sleepy pace and brooding builds of Dead Actress, track 7 of The Armed's 'Untitled', that I finally took a breath. ‘Untitled’ is a white-knuckled, thick-fingered hand squeezing your throat....
If you've been hanging around on Kickstarter lately you might have come across a project called Sensory Percussion. I won't go into the details too much (the video speaks for itself) but this new technology enables drummers to easily control an unlimited array of electronic samples, synths and audio effects with any acoustic drum kit. I encourage you to go and check out their Kickstarter page, right after watching this intensely cool video from Other People showing the tech being used...

Hold on to your britches, City and Colour fans! Pink/You+Me is back on the sidelines and a new C&C album is on the way. 'If I Should Go Before You' is slated for an October 9th release and, judging by what we've heard, it'll probably make your feet move by their own accord and tug your heartstrings right out of your chest. Here's what Dallas has to say about it: 'Over the last two years I've had the great pleasure of...
Chairman Kato is an artist and musician, but until just last year he worked as an A&E doctor. Here we find out how he made such a leap. Why did you originally become a doctor, if your real passion was art? I was a bit of an 'all rounder' at school and had interests in lots of things. Growing up I didn't really have any exposure to positive career examples of people in the arts either. So I ended up...
