If you haven't heard Goodbye Wudaokou (@XuMaTe ) yet, listen to them now. They've taken the fuzzy, jagged, alternative sound of the 90s and mixed in some of the sweetest honeycomb melodies you’ll hear anywhere.
Here's 'Glimmers'

Canny imagine how Luke Littler’s parents feel. The pride of seeing your 17 year old son become world champion. I nearly burst out crying when my 17 year old emptied the fuckin dishwasher without being asked.
Thrilled to crown @thuslovemusic's ‘All Pleasure’ our Album of the Month having followed the band’s journey since they featured as part of our On The Rise campaign in 2022.
We’re big fans. Here’s to their ever-expanding found community.

Two of the most qualified women in the country ran for president against an unqualified, racist game show host who had a history of committing fraud and sexual abuse. And the country was basically split 50-50. That should tell us some things.
I’m delighted to say my debut Irkya EP will be out next week via the wonderful @WormholeWorld FFO murky undulating synths, buried melodies, ambience and touches of post-rock guitar. Watch this space.
Mr Royal Mail just turned up with my Rough Trade special edition vinyl. Bless you Mr Royal Mail. The Pleasure is now literally All mine. This'll hit the deck later @thuslovemusic@capturedtracks@RoughTrade
