Track of the Week

‘Wild Fire’ by Laura Marling

Proving that age ain’t nothin’ but a number, Laura Marling once again delivers something with the heft and heart of artists three times her years. This track is taken from Semper Femina, her first release since leaving the major label system, and with this newfound freedom you can hear her melodies and production fluttering into ever more exciting corners, leaving her gliding on that course to become the greatest living songwriter.

#IndependentMusicMonday’s Tracks of the Year: 2016 Edition

Every Monday throughout 2016 we have compiled the week’s best new releases. We’ve featured over 1000 tracks, which you can find compiled in our Archive Spotify playlist.

It’s been a real joy rummaging through the new releases from Independent labels throughout this year, and I hope that this best of the year playlist featuring 70 of my favourites gives you a taste of some of what a great year it has been. LISTEN to the IMM tracks of the year playlist on Spotify here.

Track of the Year: ‘Three Sides of Nazareth’ by Nicolas Jaar

A pummelling beat and children chattering and tiger-growlin’ greets you at the start of this almost ten-minute masterpiece. Jaar has seemingly thrown his downbeat hyper-dub trunk off a cliff and whilst diving behind it into the infinite abyss he’s managed to make one of biggest floor-fillers of the year. If anyone was going to soundtrack a Party in the Sky, with lightning flickering at your feet, then you could bet Jaar would do it. Of course, it remains a production masterclass with the slinky, snarling, super-smart, shape-shifting, almost philosophical exercise. It’s a voyage that revels in making your synapses shake as much as your hips, but boy oh boy, if this isn’t one of the songs of the year then you better hurry up and tell me what is better than this utter bliss. “I found my broken bones by the side of the road…”
