John Carpenter - "Turning The Bones" (Chvrches remix) (4:50)
Review: Much loved Scottish synth pop gang Chvrches are known for getting weird and wonderful remixers to bring their own interpretations to their albums. For this project, they went big and deiced to ask the legendary composer John Carpenter to continue, and much to the bands delight, he did. He flips 'Good Girls' alongside his creative partners Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies into a soaring anthem with sinister and swaggering but crunchy production. Chvrches then return the favour by flipping Carpenter's 'Turning The Bones' into a chilly bit of spacious electronica.

Review: Two of the likeliest lads from Manchester team up for the first day release of their new collaborative project. And its something of a full circle moment, with Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher previously citing Stone Roses hero John Squire in a list of formative teenage musical inspirations, who, in turn, first encountered the former when both bands were working the same studio, respectively recording Definitely Maybe and The Second Coming. The pair first shared honours three years after that, co-writing 'Love Me & Leave Me' for Squire's relatively short-lived outfit, The Seahorses, in 1997. Skip forward to 2022 and Squire joined the Gallaghers et al on stage at Knebworth, reprising his appearances for renditions of 'Champagne Supernova' at the band's 1996 shows, spurring the idea to do something together again. Here's the result - and it's precisely what the duo should sound like together.
Review: J-Walk is back after the success of his recent long player Meditteranea Winds. The time the beat maker once again shows off his more than solid production credentials with a mega limited edition cut with outer space jazz vibes. It has soft same drums and lush cosmic chords that sink you in deep. On the reverse is the The Hi Fires with 'La Bas' which is a darker, heavier take on jazzed up beats with oodles of reverb, expressive sax solos and moody bass. It makes for a 7" with two very different but just as powerful sounds.
Review: Jakobinarina are creating the new sound of young Iceland. "This Is An Advertisement" gleefully parodies the chronic lack of integrity (both musical and political) displayed by the current miserable shower of 'alternative' acts. Jakobinarina's razor-scything guitars, cheeky keyboard lines and rising, spontaneous-combustion tempo set them apart from the herd of their teenage peers.
Review: It's a smooth manoeuvre how James Supercave reels you into this dense art pop. A familiar conversation in a fresh language, the LA quintet's bending production is engrossing with a sultry delivery, a hybrid of guitar solos and analogue synths, like finding David Bowie locked into a groove above J-Dilla beats. As themes run the gamut with a casually apocalyptic smirk and cool, quick wit, the songs escalate naturally to epic scales, impressive and moving. Listed by KCRW's Jason Bentley as one of the top "5 LA musicians to watch in 2014" after a demo leaked onto local airwaves, this four-song EP is James Supercave's first official release.
