UK newcomers Honne have had quite the year for themselves; between authoring one of the year’s best songs “Warm On A Cold Night” and following it up with a string heavily buzzed singles. Here, the twosome spin a decidedly minimalist character around the Rae Morris track “Under The Shadows” mixing in warm synths and low touch breaks.

“Body Rushes” is the online debut from ostensibly UK singer/band Daunt. “Body Rushes” earns its bread on its impeccable melodic writing and immediately infectious groove. A++

Tip and Thugman’s ubiquitous hip hop radio staple is wrought through the Kaytranada remix machine and boosted up by the Canadian producer’s choices of a tight snare, jazzy guitar, and (!)vibraphone.

Canadian production duo Kill Them With Colour outfit Marian Hill’s “Got It” with a stable of vibe-heavy synth and pitched-down vocals all while keeping the great hook-y head-nod tempo of the original track intact.

JMSN follows up Blue Album first single “Street Sweeper” with equally strong “Addicted”. “Addicted” as a piece of songwriting is outstanding. Flush with hooks and without a piece of instrumental or bit of vocal out of place, “Addicted” is further example of JMSN’s growth as a writer.

The 40-esque minimalist beat pop of “Amnesia” is the third and final track from London newcomers R I T U A L’s “The Fall” EP. “Amnesia”, which features a verse from American rapper Chester Watson, exists in a spacious piano stab-soundtrack nexus between Nothing Was The Same-vintage Drake and UK R&B-derived indie like Bondax.

GXNXVS, who recently released the stunning track “Benjamins” with co-producer CVIRO, remixes Theophilius London’s banger drum-inspired dance track “Tribe” from the Kanye-produced “Vibes” EP into a strikingly effervescent cool-as-rain R&B jam. Reviewed by Erin Shay.

There must be more to UK new-comers Fine Print than meets the eye. A few weeks back the anonymous collective caught our attention with their debut track “About You” and now their latest “Can’t Lie” gives us something more to latch on to. While more than ever it seems R&B has become the standard go-to inspiration for so many new artists (of all genres), Fine Print so far stand apart from the crowd, with nothing short of grade A pop songs. Something that time and time again has proven the ability to outlast that new car smell which too oft fades away with hotly tipped projects.
