Honddu (honn-thee) warp half-remembered melodies through a 90s tape machine found in a skip. Holly Müller and David Neale met in a Feminist Literature lecture and have been making analogue-tinged electronic music ever since. Their new single Go Gentle embraces their love for Kate Bush or Massive Attack while adding their own exotic reverence to the aura. There’s a cinematic brilliance to their sound, enhanced by the spoken dialog featured in the track. Holly herself is lush and hypnotic. We simply love this release.

Lingering Tones caught our attention with their new single Rise and Shine. Full of urban swagger mixed with an eastern ethos, Rise and Shine feels like a meditative trip hop celebration. In that way they find the middle ground between Thievery Corporation and Erykah Badu. Its absolutely breathtaking.

There’s a creepy comfort to Hiding In A Fog, the new collaborative single from Coral Head and Sikade. The ghostly presence of the lead vocal compliments the music abstract design. Tickling sounds feel derived from some antique archive. The vibe evolves like an obscure dream. Its an otherworldly sentiment.
