The group are set to showcase their back2back2back sets all over the world this summer, including at our partner festival Exit in Serbia. So with that, we grabbed a quick 5 minutes with them..

MCR Folk Us: Introducing Yemi Bolatiwa

There's one thing that stands above the rest when speaking to singer/songwriter Yemi Bolatiwa and that's her involuntary passion for music. There's a natural hunger that seeps from the 22 year old, which acts as somewhat of a definitive precursor to her success, even if the route toward that goal isn't as clear as her passion: "If I'm not talking about work, I'm talking about music. If you've got music in your life and you get to live music and get better at it, it's a great thing."

Interview: Josh Butler

Josh Butler is on the up. Many may have caught on to his knack for slick and melodious grooves through the track 'Got A Feeling', a track that we believe helped widen his appeal. Dropping this week is his latest EP so we stole a few words on how this release became noticed in Watergate Berlin, his links to Manchester via club night and label iDiOSYNC and his mild obsession with trains... yes, trains. Get to know.
