An Abundance Of Beautiful Things: June’s New Singles Reviewed

Music | Bittles’ Magazine: The music column from the end of the world Have you heard the new Stone Roses song yet? Beautiful Thing came out on the 10th of June to be greeted by ecstatic air punches from middle-aged dads everywhere, and the odd shrug or two from anyone under the age of 25.

Bittles‘ Magazine To end our epic trilogy of interviews we have the extremely talented and funky Ikonika. Now, you know when lazy journalists are writing about female producers they always point out their gender and how hard it is for a woman to succeed in a male-dominated industry? Then when you’ve finished reading the article you find out they haven’t once bothered to mention the actual music? Luckily Ikonika has never had this problem for one simple reason, which is that her music is so good that you simply have to talk about it, discuss it, and show it off
