Are you bloody stuffed with Christmas dinner? We’re bloody stuffed with Christmas dinner. And there’s more to come, too. While the bubble ‘n’ squeak sort of gurgles away in a pan for a bit we at TLE thought we’d gather our favourite tracks of 2017 into one handy playlist for ...
Just as the sun's rays dim with each passing day, the Winter Solstice pacing a grim march ever closer with each rotation of Earth on its frigid axis - November got DARK. Look at this lot! The new Rolo Tomassi track - truly a beast of graveyard-slinking synths and Eva ...
Tracks and Treats my Halloween fiends! A belated BOO to you. If you've taken off your suspiciously pongy latex costume, removed the dodgy face paint and tucked into your candy haul (besides the squashy eggs, of course) you're probably ready for our BLOODY good October playlist. Talking of dodgy latex, ...
Is September too early to start buying Christmas presents? The last 30 days has provided us with enough bangers to stuff several festive stockings. After a slow start the month really took off, dropping some of the best releases of the year so far. As you can probably tell we're ...

July's playlist is running a bit longer than usual, which is a sound indicator that this has been the strongest month for new releases of 2017 so far. What a month! Sheer Mag lived up to the hype on their eagerly-anticipated debut Need to Feel Your Love, The Xcerts returned with ...

You wouldn't know it day-to-day, but May was a pro slacker month. It's mid-tempo easiness right through this month, folks, with the exception of the Cyndi Lauper sugar of Paramore's new one, that is. Resist 'Fake Happy'. You can't. Elsewhere, we had the triumphant return of shoegaze pioneers Slowdive, who have ...
April, you spoil us. Look at these releases. We had massive new cuts and genuine AOTY contenders from Kendrick Lamar, Arca and Joey Bada$$ to keep us busy, but it was really snaking, cooler-than-thou indie and alt that stole focus in the end, plugging the glorious gaps between the headline-stealing drops. ...
