The music of Emily Yacina has been bubbling away in the background of my life for well over a decade now – although it's been six years since her last new album, and three years since the release of career-spanning collection 'All The Things'. Debut album Heart
“I wanted the music to feel more like the Earth does when left to its own devices,” Rafiq Bhatia has said of his forthcoming album Environments. With that idea at the centre of it all, Bhatia gently constructed a new world of his own making, eight new songs that "
