Review: MYD – Born A Loser
Myd, the delightfully eccentric yet irreverent French DJ, musician and producer has released his highly anticipated debut album Born A Loser via Ed Banger / Because Music. A looped album of fun electronica, Born A Loser is precisely the kind of album we'd want to drop this Summer, reminiscent of festival and disco vibes.

Review: Once Upon A River
Once Upon A River is a slow-paced but considered drama that follows Native American teenager Margo Crane in 1970s rural Michigan. With stunning cinematography from Charlotte Hornsby and great performances from most of the cast, it's hardly surprising that it's a festival-favourite slice of mid-western Americana ideal. Featuring a beautiful folk music soundtrack, we can conceive a place, a time and the tale.
