‘Vanderbilt Cup’ is the debut single from Bristolian four-piece Empty Pools and, as introductions go, is very impressive indeed, building towards its climax with a playful yet forceful insistence.

The most recent of the Shaking Through series features the wonderful Cat Martino, with a little help from Sufjan Stevens and Man Man’s Chris Powell. Darker than her previous work, its gentle electronica gives her gorgeously measured vocals full room to breathe.

‘Even The Blind’ is our first glimpse of Echo Lake’s upcoming debut album Wild Peace, and sees the core duo of Linda Jarvis and Thom Hill devloping their sound and embracing a bigger, more expansive aesthetic.

Barely six months have passed since Sin Kitty’s debut EP but seemingly quite a lot has changed in terms of the band’s sound. New track ‘Vanity Daze’ is overflowing with ideas, drawing in elements of drone, shoegaze, and pop.

While much of Switch and Diplo’s work as Major Lazer has been enjoyable, it’s fair to say that the word ‘subtlety’ seldom crops up in discussions of their work. Which is precisely what makes ‘Get Free’ such a pleasant surprise.
