London-based multi-instrumentalist Braque is also a writer and producer and creates his music entirely himself. His name might not sound familiar but he’s written and produced for such artists as Rag N Bone Man and Bastille. Yes, that super famous, highly successful Bastille. Needless to say we were curious to hear his own music and…

Mo Parker is actually two people: Classically and jazz trained pianist and singer Mo and trippy R&B beat-maker Domzilla. Their union here couldn’t possibly be more intriguing as Mo’s piano and soulful vocals ride Domzilla’s super deep, low end bass perfectly, resulting in something that sounds like a slightly more organic Massive Attack. Perhaps it’s…

UK producer Stumbleine — aka Peter Cooper — deservedly-earned a reputation as a skillful and even innovative electronic artist during the past few years with intoxicating releases such as his 2012 solo debut, Spiderwebbed, and 2013’s Things Don’t Sparkle Like They Used To. But there was one thing that prevented some listeners from becoming fully…

Ninetails are a three piece band from Liverpool. As for what sort of band they are, well, that’s nearly impossible to say. Their songs are rather mold-breaking and don’t conform to the rules of any genre, so I suppose you could call them avant-garde, but then avant-garde artists tend to be really “out there” (read:…

Yesterday we unveiled our review of Slo Light, the debut solo album by Massive Attack collaborator Davidge. As promised, today we’re presenting our exclusive interview with the man himself.

Working closely with Massive Attack’s Robert Del Naja (3D) in both a co-writing…

Davidge was Massive Attack’s third wheel ever since the album Mezzanine. He co-wrote and produced some of their best tracks, including “Teardrop,” the instrumental version of which went on to become the theme song to the show House M.D. after the original version of the song was an international hit. He also worked extensively on…

Usually if a band is going to release a self-titled album it’s going to be their debut. If not, then it usually happens later in their career after they’re several albums in and want to announce that they’re changing direction, or perhaps that they’ve finally found themselves again after a bad album or two. It’s…

Highly recommended!

You might not know the name Neil Davidge. To be perfectly honest, we didn’t. But chances are you’ve heard his work. He’s the producer extraordinaire of many Massive Attack hits, including “Teardrop” — the song used as the theme song to House M.D. — and “The Hunter Gets Captured by the Game” (from the Batman…
