The Not At All Regular New Music Round Up

It's new. It's music. It's a round up. It's not at all regular. You can see where I'm going with this...


Okay, so they may sound a little like Jane’s Addiction but that’s that’s no bad thing right? Sacramento’s Middle Class Rut hit the UK for four dates in May, releasing their debut single, Aunt Betty, on May 13th, just to whet your whistle...or any other part of your anatomy for that matter.


DutchUncles’ Hare and Hounds gig will easily make my top nights of 2013 list (along with the night I watched 4 episodes of American Pickers back to back...rock ‘n’roll) and the next single from their frankly essential album Out of Touch In the Wild, Bellio, is another sophisticated slice of math disco loveliness.


I’ve been listening to this track by The Traps for a while now but it seems as though it’s only just getting an official release (on the lovely Speech Fewapy Records). Hurrah. Classy pop from yet another classy Brum band. Seriously...you should move here. It’s great. We’ve got buses and everything...


I’ve posted stuff from Mykki Blanco before and got thousands...nay...millions...of emails asking what the hell is this dude on? I don’t know but any cross dressing rapper is fine in my book. OAP readers may remember Ru Paul but we’ll gloss over that.


When Grandmaster Gareth passes on to that great recording studio in the sky he’ll rightly be hailed as a complete and utter genius. There’ll be films, retrospectives, exhibitions of his woolly hats the V&A and all that schnizzle. On top of his work with Misty’s Big Adventure he keeps putting out oddball solo stuff like this little gem...
