  • Why You Should Spin: Solo Three by Erik Hall

    Composer and multi instrumentalist Erik Hall from Michigan has made something that is really mind boggling and calming to listen to. A man who voyeurs into other provocative works and gives us a jump start in marvel by crafting his own versions here before us. His forte is minimalism music, which I am aware of…

  • Why You Should Spin: Only Love by Peach

    I came here for the dogs, but then I stayed for the music. So, I was browsing noise rock outfits in Bandcamp and the cover art drew me in. So, this stayed on my wish list and after a couple of listens after its release, I am hooked. There’s not much information about this band…

  • Why You Should Spin: URGH by Mandy, Indiana

    When it comes to challenging listens, URGH is one. The first album from 2026 that got a hold of me by the neck is this industrial beast spearheaded by a band from Manchester, UK that goes by the name Mandy, Indiana. This is their sophomore album and the band was already hailed as a force…

  • Why You Should Spin: Eusexua by FKA Twigs

    I first heard about FKA Twigs when I first heard her amazing “Cellophane” single that followed her Magdalene release. It was so minimalist, but it was so out there in the distant aether. That’s how I would describe her music, just “out there.” That song made me look up her debut album alternative R&B record,…

  • Why You Should Spin: The BPM by Sudan Archives

    Once upon a time, a little girl named Brittney Denise Parks learned the violin and fell in love with it. That was her first treasure finding. Secondly, according to her in the Guardian, Parks stated that she found a whole new world to music when she found out on how Africans played the violin as…

  • Why You Should Spin: Lotus by Little Simz

    It was around 2018 I saw a YouTube music video of “Proud of Me” by England’s Mahalia. It was an alternative R&B soul and hip-hop single that was uplifting about someone being filled with gratitude. The verses by Mahalia herself and the chorus was already hitting, but then came Little Simz’s turn and I was…

  • Why You Should Spin: Tether by Annahstasia

    She hails from Los Angeles, one that is named Annahstasia Enuke. A very talented artist with their foot in the door of many crafts, she signed a record deal at the early age of 17. She shared some thoughts with Crack Magazine, that she hasn’t been a good fit with the industry and she knew…

  • Why You Should Spin: Traces by Cahl Sel

    So, I didn’t know much about DJ/electronic producer, Cahl Sel from San Francisco. Jasper Sharp going under the moniker of Cahl Sel, has performed at the back of DJ venues or radio broadcasts for quite some time. On his website, he has archived his past gigs that vary from a chill atmosphere to groovy house.…

  • Why You Should Spin: Getting Killed by Geese

    What’s more to say about this album? That question is for the people who are already aware of this band and their accolades following their latest release from 2025. Most music journalists and newsletters have been head over heels and for this, while analyzing brick by brick. Before they were known for many works centered…

  • Why You Should Spin: GOLLIWOG by billy woods

    Billy Woods was a name I’ve known in the underground hip hop scene through many praise on the web. But I’ve never got around to listening to him with much regret yet at an auspicious time when he did an unforgettable collaboration with Moor Mother on Brass in 2020. The work on that album was…

  • Why You Should Spin: Tranquilizer by Oneohtrix Point Never

    Daniel Lopatin under the moniker of Oneohtrix Point Never, is someone I’ve heard of many times, but never got into until recently. Not that I didn’t want to, because the man is hailed as a pioneer of groundbreaking electronic music. However, I’ve never done a deep dive as I haven’t had time to. I remembered…

  • Why You Should Spin: Stardust by Danny Brown

    Danny has always been one of the most respected hip hop artists of the underground. His nasal delivery makes his voice unique and the ability to flow over any beat the universe can throw at him are some of many reasons he is most formidable. His style gradually changing into the conventional to the most…

  • Why You Should Spin: I Love My Computer by Ninajirachi

    We usually associate someone being chronically online as a negative entity. That they are just some weirdo that is constantly plugged in is being part of a cog of a machine, or living in some horrific dystopia. These sheeple will never wake up! However, this album is a love letter about a healthy and complex…

  • Why You Should Spin: Pirouette by    Model/Actriz

    When I listened to their debut album Dogsbody in 2023, I was floored by this cold and cacophonous sound that expanded my worldview of music. I wasn’t familiar with No Wave, but it although it causes dissonance, I was being hypnotized by this band’s avant-garde approach to dance punk. I’ve always described their music like…

  • Why You Should Spin: viagr aboys by Viagra Boys

    Swedish post-punk outfit Viagra Boys already at first glance at their name, is that there is something so cheeky about them. The best things that manifest out of punk or post-punk is that there could be so many ways on criticizing the dumbness that is our world and its men with their art. Frontman Sebastian…
