High Places new song
Late Bloomer High Places has delivered on their promise of more expansive, experimental and sparse music with their latest release on a split 12″ with Soft Circle, their contribution being the song ‘Late Bloomer’.

Candy Claws cover Ace Of Base… and more covers
Rad Guillotine do PENS This is an instrumental cover that samples the vocals from the original PENS song. It’s a lot cleaner than the PENS version, but it doesn’t have the same catchy aesthetic. Rad Guillotine’s version completely reinvents the keyboard parts, going for a spacey, futuristic vibe instead of sticking with the warped keys [...]
