MINCE

“I think they’re great” - Chris Moyles
They mix vintage sounds with noise, drones, scattered rhythms and daggered melodies, for a deafening pastiche only your grandma could ignore. They speak of love, loss and control, but sometimes they just shout. They release their newest single ‘All I Ever Wanted, Was to Be’ on the 16th of June.

LUKA
LUKA is a solo artist based in Leeds and London UK. With a distinctive voice and a authentic quirkiness in terms of production and song writing, LUKA is at the beginning of her musical journey and has a great deal of potential.
LUKA's debut single ‘Play Thing’ lives in a stripped back setting. Faint whispers of an instrumental backdrop create a hypnotic atmosphere, but the track’s heartbeat lies in LUKA’s gorgeous synth coated vocals. This simple yet brilliant touch gives ‘Play Thing’ a futuristic, almost extra-terrestrial feel and speaks for LUKA’s unbound creativity'.
