Low Hummer - Modern Tricks For Living
Released 4th March 2022.
Low Hummer are a fast-rising six piece from Hull that write about their life in deepest
darkest East Yorkshire and their place in a world of consumerism and bad news stories
sold as gospel. Daniel, Aimee, Steph, Jack, John and Joe came together from the far
corners of the city’s tight knit DIY community, established a regular rehearsal home in
iconic DIY venue The New Adelphi Club and set about honing their righteous, danceable garage rock before announcing themselves in late 2019 and introducing the world to Low Hummer - this band of misfits from a town left behind.
Low Hummer released their first fuzzed-up garage anthem ‘Don’t You Ever Sleep’ in
September 2019 on independent Leeds label Dance To The Radio, followed by second
indie-punk single ‘I Choose Live News’ in October. Both singles earned the band support from the likes of Clash, Dork, Gigwise and BBC 6 Music as 6 Music Recommends Track of the Week and a feature on the Roundtable scoring the band a
wining 9/10. Following single releases, ‘The Real Thing’, ‘Picture Bliss’ and ‘Sometimes
I Wish (I Was A Different Person)’ were championed by Jack Saunders (Radio 1), Huw
Stephens (Radio 1), Steve Lamacq (6 Music), Marc Riley (6 Music), Tom Robinson (6
Music), the Amazing Radio A list, NME, Gigwise and Under The Radar Magazine.
Low Hummer have just released their first album single of 2021, ‘Never Enough’,
supported by BBC Radio 1’s Jack Saunders and Gemma Bradley, added to Radio 1’s
playlist as BBC Introducing’s Track Of The Week and playlisted on Spotify’s New Music
Friday UK, Dreampop, melomania, Alt.Rocked and Hot New Bands (Cover Photo). The
band look forward to announcing the release of their debut album Modern Tricks For
Living, set for release on Dance To The Radio in September 2021.
“Scuzzed out indie with lashings of synths, their post-punk leaning songwriting has a
surreal pop instinct running through it” – Clash
“Brilliant new garage rock… classic garage rock sounds that join with post-punk fury.”
– Gigwise
“Its really charming. Great.” Laura Snapes (The Guardian / Pitchfork - For 6 Music
Roundtable)

Expected Release 7th November 2025 It was the arrival of a Studer A80 master recorder at the front door of Sam Shepherd- otherwise known as Floating Points-that caused him to begin building the studio that led to the creation of his debut album, Elaenia. After a slight miscalculation meant that he could not physically get the thing inside his home, what happened next can only be described as a beautiful example of the butterfly effect. Breaking away from making electronic music on his laptop,...

Expected Release 6th February 2026 Vintage recording equipment has long been a bit of a fetish, but to sound pioneers Voka Gentle, even the most magical machines are a means to an end. The band, made up of twins Ellie and Imogen Mason, along with Imogen’s husband, William J Stokes, are a family band in the truest sense. Whilst they started out as a folk trio, their new album Domestic Bliss is an album of throat-grabbing, avant-garde indie rock songs studded with eccentric choices: a synth wit...

Expected Release 7th November 2025 Following the breakthrough success of Suburban Light, the 2001 collection of The Clientele’s initial singles and EPs, tastemakers and aficionados were eager to hear what the trio of Alasdair MacLean (guitars, vocals), Mark Keen (drums, piano), and James Hornsey (bass) could make if set loose inside a studio to record a full-length album. What they emerged with from London’s Medina Road Studios in the fall of 2002 was tantalizing: Their already sharply realiz...

Expected Release 21st November 2025 When Chuck D proclaimed "Bass, how low can you go?" on Public Enemy's anthemic 'Bring the Noise,' maybe he was pre-empting or inciting the 10,000 fathoms-deep, spine-bending basslines and sub-quake tremors of 'Implosion.' Implosion is a crushing split album, appropriately released on The Bug's own PRESSURE label. Mapping out a new form of spectral dub, the sound is deliberately immersive, introverted, and yes, definitely implosive. In pursuit of heavy lids,...
