10 Little Indie Hot Picks




Fed up with hearing the same old tunes? Well, why not cast your ears over ten of our new specially handpicked hot picks!



FLATLANDS - FRIDAY NIGHT

New single from the Oxford five-piece of melodic, indie dance-punk pop. Buzzy and sharp, you can hear it live at The Fleece, Bristol on December 3.




CITY CALM DOWN - IN THIS MODERN LAND

The Melbourne outfit release this latest big-sounding single of darkly anthemic structure - and a vocal to die for - taken from their second album (out early next year via I Oh You Records), as they head back to the UK to play November 23 Hoxton Square Bar & Kitchen, London; 27 - Old Blue Last, London; 28 - Soup Kitchen, Manchester; 29 - Stereo, Glasgow.




TEN FÉ- SINGLE, NO RETURN

First new music since debut album ‘Hit The Light’ in February from the dark pop-electronica outfit - and the first release they’ve recorded as a five-piece. Nicely produced and great beats form the base for this track, which the band refer to it as "a direct descendant of Hank William’s ‘Ramblin Man’", a song that they have in their busking repertoire. Catch live in London at Dingwalls on November 23.




SUB BLUE - HYPE LIKE SUPREME

Though still unknown to many, this new single, produced by XamVolo, from the Merseyside artist, shows massive potential. Released November 17, it's mellow, soulful R&B influenced.




CAMP COPE - THE OPENER

First cut from the Melbourne trio's second album coming next year. Vocalist/guitarist Georgia Maq deals with sexism within the music industry.




FROM APES TO ANGELS - CHRONICA (feat. Chronica)

The Kent/Sheffield synth/dreampop duo, Millie Gaum (vocals) and Andrew Brassleay (synths), team up with Paris-based synthwave band Chronica for this meaty, beaty lead single - out November 20 - from their upcoming 'Thrill' LP, which follows on December 1.




EA KAYA - REMEDY

Copenhagen-based singer Christine Kiberg emerges with this electronica pop debut single, out on Danish indie label No3. Melodic vocals, snappy percussion and stabs of synth.




NVDES - D.Y.T (DO YOUR THING)

LA's Josh Ocean's project returns with this taste of the December 8 dropping 'LA NVDITÉ, Vol. 2' EP. Featuring Remmi's alluring vocals, pulsing electronics and hard-hitting bassline.




GHOST ROBOTS - BAD HABIT

Released earlier this month, energetic riff rocker with punchy chorus, the first single from the Waterford, Ireland five-piece ahead of their debut album, out January 26 2018.




WULFMAN FURY - NIGHTSWEATS

Sheffield-based garage-rockers released this debut single at the end of October - and by the time you read this will have dropped a follow-up, 'Draw The Line'. Keep on the radar for 2018, and catch live on November 25 at The Washington, Sheffield.
