Elle spoke with Robber Robber, about their sophomore album Two Wheels Move the Soul, released earlier this year. The album was written in amounst precarious circumstances, after a fire had sent their building to demolition.
The uncertainty and chaos of the band’s experience is reflected within the hefty guitar riffs and sharp abstracted lyrics. It's so awesome.

Elle spoke to Molina about her single released February this year, Golden Brown Sugar. Rebecca spoke about her working relationships and friendships with contemporaries such as Smerz, ML Buch, Astride Sonne and Fine, her turn towards acoustic instruments and how the space between releases leads to greater exploration within her music.
Molina is a Danish-Chilean producer and musician based in Copenhagen. Golden Brown Sugar, is full of grounded imagery within a lyrically complex narrative. One texter said they wanted it played at their funeral.
