The fourth film is Spidey at his most exposed and emotional. Courtesy of Sony Pictures Releasing. Tom Holland’s Peter Parker returns with a time jump as he faces an elusive threat in Destin Daniel Cretton’s Spider-Man: Brand New Day, zeroing in on the superhero in his darkest phase yet. Our friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man is no longer a happy-go-lucky, nerdy high-schooler. As the stakes got higher in the previous chapter, No Way Home, a multiverse glitch forced him to put his public duties first. In a heartbreaking conclusion, Peter chose to protect his loved ones — and everyone across all possible…
If you grow up in the UK wanting to be an artist, you’re still (often) fed the same script: If you’re serious about working in the creative industries, you move south. You move to London. That’s where the money is. That’s where the “real” scene is. Molly Leeds-based illustrator, cartoonist, and zine-maker Molly Grimshaw, better known as Molly Pukes, heard that too when they decided they were going to make a life out of drawing. “When I decided to become an artist, there was this kind of assumption made against me… that I need to go to London, I need…
In August 1969, the biggest band in America appeared to come from somewhere that did not exist. Creedence Clearwater Revival sounded as though they had crawled out of a Louisiana swamp: with John Fogerty singing in a ferocious Southern rasp about bayous, paddle steamers, cotton fields and gathering storms. In reality, the four musicians came from a suburb of San Francisco, and none had any connection with the South. Fogerty’s bayou was pieced together from old blues and folk records, country radio, Mark Twain novels and Uncle Remus stories. Three members of the band – John, bassist Stu Cook and…
Kenzo Str8Drop has always seen obstacles as foundations to build upon. Incarceration propelled him further into the spotlight when it should have done the opposite. “Trap Flow” and his debut EP “Bricks & Sticks” that followed amassed streaming numbers north of 20M all while Kenzo was in Her Majesty’s company. Time away allowed him to hone in on what mattered, and perfect the craft that would soon see him feature alongside a different calibre of royalty, Aitch. Recognition on mainstream platforms like KISS XTRA quickly followed, where he won Ellie Prohan’s Battle Of The North, proving that despite the anonymity…

For independent dance artists, owning the record is increasingly only one part of the equation. The bigger play is owning the ecosystem around it. London DJ, producer and vocalist DJ YUKI pushes further into that model with The Baddest, released VIA her own GLAZD Records.Built around a rolling house groove, driving bassline and YUKI’s own vocal, the track keeps its architecture deliberately direct. Rather than treating the voice as decoration, repetition becomes the main production device; a phrase engineered to move quickly from performer to dancefloor. DJ YUKI says:The Baddest is basically a daily affirmation with a bassline.That description pretty…

Photo by Alejandro Menéndez VegaOf all the recent musicians we have sadly lost in recent times, the tragic news of the passing of Raul Malo last year was one of the most gut-wrenching for me. He was only 60 years old but had announced in 2024 that he was suffering from cancer, and the world lost a truly shining light in the annals of americana.He’d begun blasting his way into the punk clubs in Miami before he fronted the wonderful Mavericks for over thirty years. He was such a captivating presence on stage, with his gorgeous, rich, and heartbreaking vocal…
