Artist of the Week is TURNSPIT

Our Artist of the Week is TURNSPIT.  

Leeds duo TURNSPIT returns with ‘Have A Heart’, a self-produced, electro-tinged dream-pop track that balances urgency with weightlessness.  

Breathy synths, chattering percussion and airy vocals pull you into its orbit, subtly reworking the emotional immediacy of early-2000s trip-hop through a modern, left-of-centre lens. 

Listen here: ‘Have A Heart’ 

Built around longing and restraint, it’s their most propulsive, dancefloor-leaning release yet. Since their debut EP Your Heartbeat Is The Rhythm Of The Universe two years ago, TURNSPIT (Jess Clark and George Barwick) have quietly built momentum through shape-shifting singles like ‘Ride’ and ‘Cinderella Girl’. 

With little fanfare and a steadily growing catalogue, TURNSPIT remains one of Leeds’ most intriguing emerging acts – firmly one to keep on your radar.

Artist of the Week is Balancing Act

Our Artist of the Week is Balancing Act.  

It’s only been a few months since Balancing Act released part one of their debut album ‘Who’ve You Come As?’, yet they’re already back with more. ‘Sunshine’ arrives as a bold teaser for part two – a sultry, brooding indie-rock cut that fully unleashes the band’s cinematic ambition. 

Built on magnetic rhythms, slick production and razor-sharp guitars, the track balances old-school rock familiarity with a fresh, chaotic edge. As it barrels towards its climax, the song unravels in spectacular fashion, with Kai Jon Roberts’ vocals pushed to breaking point – a moment that underlines Balancing Act’s fearless, all-or-nothing approach. 

Listen Here: ‘Sunshine’ 

DIY Manchester-via-London theatrical misfits to the core, ‘Sunshine’ is loud, brazen and dripping in charm. It’s a track that demands full volume – and announces that Balancing Act isn’t messing around in 2026.

Artist of the Week is big long sun

Our Artist of the Week is big long sun. 

Brighton’s big long sun return with their expansive new single ‘my stars aligning’, a heart-on-sleeve psych-pop anthem that charts the emotional swing between love lost and love rediscovered.  

The eight-piece unleash their full force on the track for the first time, weaving infectious harmonies through clanking drums, warm bass lines, and a charmingly off-kilter blend of accordion, clarinet and lo-fi guitar textures. 

Listen Here: ‘my stars aligning’ 

Built around an irresistible ‘ahh’-led singalong, ‘my stars aligning’ moves effortlessly between tender introspection and widescreen pop release. 

Endearing, whimsical and deeply felt, it’s a timeless love song delivered with colour, character and confidence – further proof that big long sun’s creative well is anything but dry.
