Bristol Music Weekly
21 MAR – 27 MAR 2026
The sounds of the city keep evolving. This week’s drops bring everything from raw punk attitude to deep system pressure. Dive into our handpicked highlights and explore the full pane of releases below.
Spotify Drops
Anecho – “Imma Get You”
High-energy and direct, this one wastes no time. Punchy production and infectious rhythm make it a proper club-ready weapon.
Split Dogs
“Rock 'N' Roll Business”
Fast, loud, and unapologetic. A no-frills blast of punk attitude with sharp hooks and serious live energy.
Polhawan
“No Sweat”
Smooth and groove-led, “No Sweat” brings laid-back confidence with clean production and a subtle bounce.
Jakabol
“Nectarivore”
Organic textures meet experimental flair. With the Leornian album dropping on Bandcamp yesterday, this track offers a rich, exploratory sound palette.
Benjamin Samuels
“Visions”
Atmospheric and cinematic, “Visions” leans into layered electronics and slow-building intensity.
Laughing At Oblivion
“Waste Attack”
Chaotic in all the right ways — distorted, aggressive, and full of energy. Pure underground edge.
Mould
“Superseded”
Sharp indie tones with a modern twist. Catchy but slightly off-kilter — a strong balance of melody and grit.
Los Dedos
“Paint it Black”
A bold reinterpretation with Latin-infused flair. Rhythmic, vibrant, and packed with personality.
Pana Dub, Lys Darkgyal
“Brisdub”
Straight Bristol sound system pressure. Deep dub grooves, echo-drenched vocals, and heavyweight basslines.
Deepenuv x Gudiel
“Midnight (Dub Remix)”
Late-night dub atmospherics — spacious, immersive, and built for dark rooms and big speakers.
Ead Wood
“Emmeline”
Delicate songwriting with a warm, intimate feel. Subtle instrumentation lets the emotion shine through.
Hot Lobby
“Vampire”
Indie with bite. “Vampire” mixes playful energy with sharp hooks and a slightly sinister edge.
Bandcamp Picks
Yu Kno – “The Babber”
A raw, underground roller packed with Bristol DNA. “The Babber” leans into stripped-back percussion and weighty low-end, delivering that late-night system pressure feel. Minimal but lethal.
The Greys
“Wept”
Moody, guitar-driven introspection with a hazy edge. “Wept” builds emotion through restraint, balancing melancholic vocals with textured instrumentation that lingers long after.
Om Unit
“Remember”
A masterclass in atmosphere. Om Unit blends dub, bass, and experimental electronics into a hypnotic soundscape — deep, meditative, and unmistakably refined.
L SyD
“Tonsura”
Leftfield energy meets intricate rhythm work. “Tonsura” feels unpredictable in the best way — glitchy textures, sharp edits, and forward-thinking production throughout.
Fearless Dread
“Silk 1”
Rooted in dub tradition but pushing into modern territory. “Silk 1” rides smooth, weighty basslines with a hypnotic flow — proper system music.
Kndhrt
“Can You Remember”
Dreamy and nostalgic, this one floats between ambient textures and downtempo groove. A reflective piece that feels both intimate and expansive.
Joe Blow and the Shmoes
“Lay My Body Down”
Gritty, blues-infused storytelling with a live-band feel. Raw vocals and stripped instrumentation give this track a timeless, road-worn character.
