    Michelle Blades announces new album WHERE TO? and shares lead single ‘You’re The Mother, You’re The Man’

    Release Video
    Posted on 30 September 2025

    Multi-faceted artist Michelle Blades returns with ‘You’re the Mother, You’re the Man’, the first single from her forthcoming album Where To?, scheduled for release in early 2026.

    Both intimate and universal, this song is one of the oldest on the album. Written in 2018 in Mexico City, it predates the rest of the record, which began to take shape in 2023.

    Multi-faceted artist Michelle Blades returns with ‘You’re the Mother, You’re the Man’, the first single from her forthcoming album Where To?, scheduled for release in early 2026.

    Both intimate and universal, this song is one of the oldest on the album. Written in 2018 in Mexico City, it predates the rest of the record, which began to take shape in 2023. Inspired by childhood memories and reflections on single parenthood, ‘You’re the Mother, You’re the Man’ was first imagined as a poetic mantra for Blades’s mother. Born in Mexico, she is celebrated here as both strong and vulnerable, able to carry many roles at once. The chorus phrase “You’re the Mother” responds to the familiar “You’re the man,” traditionally used to salute someone admirable. By reframing this formula, the song places the power of motherhood at the center.

    Musically, the piece draws on two key influences: the use of silence as a rhythmic element, and the vocal and spatial explorations of Meredith Monk, especially Book of Days. Monk’s work has inspired Blades since her arrival in Arizona in 2010. Reimagined during the recording of Where To?, the track found its form at La Bergerie in southern France with Emmanuel Mario (Astrobal), Nina Savary, Gaétan Nonchalant, and Vincent Guyot. Nonchalant’s Rhodes lines add depth to Blades’s guitars, breaking the mantra’s repetition with flashes of memory. Layered vocals intertwine to create a subtle balance between density and simplicity. The track is accompanied by a music video directed by Ilan Zerrouki.

    Born in Panama to a family of musicians, Michelle Blades grew up in the United States before shaping a unique aesthetic that blends experimentation and pop sensitivity. After emerging from Arizona’s DIY scene, she settled in Paris and collaborated for ten years with Midnight Special Records, releasing Ataraxia (2015), the Premature Love Songs EP (2017), Visitor (2019), and the Spanish-language EP Nombrar las cosas (2020).

    Blades is also known for her collaborations. She has played bass on stage with Pomme, arranged Flavien Berger’s latest album Plouf! with the band La Brume, and toured worldwide with La Femme as both singer and musician.

    With You’re the Mother, You’re the Man, Michelle Blades opens a new chapter in her artistic universe, blending personal heritage, sonic exploration, and the desire to share.

    Ela Minus, Colombian artist and uber-talented producer/songwriter, has been nominated for a 2025 Latin GRAMMY® Award: “QQQQ” for Best Latin Electronic Music Performance.

    The frenetic DÍA album highlight was described by Pitchfork as “the sort of glow-stick-twirling thumper that could topple a Coachella dance tent.” Released earlier this year to much fanfare, Ela’s second album, DÍA, is a rarified feat in electronic music, where cutting-edge production and space-shuddering sonics meet a burgeoning singer-songwriter’s real sense of self-reflection and private reckoning.

    Landing on several mid-year “Best Of” lists from major publications including Billboard, Rolling Stone, Paste, and Stereogum, DÍA is both introspective and expansive, the wide sweep of its songs revealing more of Ela as person and producer than ever before. The album was mixed by Marta Salogni and mastered by Heba Kadry.

    Congratulations Ela!

    “Daisy started as a daydream while listening to Leon’s finest music,” says Melody. “I reached out to him, and we instantly created this sweet overlapping zone—like an invisible playground between our worlds. It’s a privilege to have made this one together!”

    Austra, the pop project of Canadian vocalist and composer Katie Stelmanis, returns today with news of her new album Chin Up Buttercup, due out November 14th via Domino.

    Austra, the pop project of Canadian vocalist and composer Katie Stelmanis, returns today with news of her new album Chin Up Buttercup, due out November 14th via Domino.

    Stelmanis, a classically trained musician and opera devotee with four previous albums and a Canadian Screen Award under her belt, has been singing dramatic arias about tragedy for years. Her secret? She didn’t really know what that devastation felt like. She only experienced it off stage in early 2020 when her long-term partner dropped a bombshell. “I was completely blindsided … the person I loved woke up one day, told me she wasn’t happy, and I basically never saw her again,” Stelmanis says. She confesses to feeling very at odds with the world, like nothing made sense.

    The album’s name is a reference to the societal pressure to just paste on a smile and keep going. Stelmanis and co-producer Kieran Adams took inspiration from the Eurodance sound of Madonna’s landmark 1998 album Ray of Light, produced by William Orbit, and emerged with a mix of hypnotic dance floor anthems and elegant melodies to soothe your broken heart.

    Stelmanis unleashed her pain over the breakup into poetic fragments in a cathartic Google document that eventually became the source for the album’s powerful lyrics. One such example is captured vividly in the album’s first riveting single “Math Equation”: “You said I needed my own friends / So I found them / Then you fucked them.” There is an unmistakable type of sapphic chaos threaded through every song, and “Math Equation” is equal parts catchy clapback and bittersweet plea for reconnection. “Math Equation” comes today via a video directed by Trevor Blumas.

    Multi-disciplinary group Sorry have announced their new album COSPLAY which is set for release November 7th via Domino Recording Co. COSPLAY meticulously erases and redraws the parameters that Sorry have set throughout their career. It is a world where anyone can be anyone, past or present, real or imaginary, dead or alive; it is the album that frees Sorry from their shackles. The band have also shared new song “Echoes” alongside a music video by FLASHA Prod. 

    “Echoes” is a key moment on the album, inspired by a poem about the story of a boy shouting echo into a tunnel waiting for his reply. Sorry then ran with this idea, and it became a song about losing yourself in love and “echo” becoming a third person in the middle. You can’t tell if it’s them or you.

It’s a fast-tempo punk-electro song, inspired by early Knife songs and ’80s Depeche Mode basslines. It’s a bit of fun, really – I wanted to explore my love for synths again.”

    Georgia will be hosting an intimate event at London’s AnotherLand on Friday, 25th July, where she will perform her new live set alongside a number of guest DJs.

    Domino Records has announced the signing of Working Men’s Club’s Sydney Minsky Sargeant, whose debut album Lunga will be released later this year, on September 12th. As one of the North West’s most productive and versatile musicians, Syd is a self-made force of nature whose dynamic, shock-laden live performances have seen him grace Glastonbury stages, tour the UK and Europe, appear on Later… with Jools Holland, and be feted by such renowned musicians as Atticus Ross (NIN), Cabaret Voltaire’s Stephen Mallinder, and Confidence Man for his critically acclaimed albums as Working Men’s Club. Most recently, LCD Soundsystem picked Working Men’s Club to support them at four of their eight dates as part of their Brixton Academy residency, which kicks off this week in London.

    The upcoming album Lunga is the sound of a door opening onto a pasture, fog rolling over grass as the sun rises in the distance; it is the sound of renewal and a sense of optimism. These are glistening, melodic songs – an antidote to the chaos and abrasive atmosphere of touring, and a beautiful side-step from the music that Sydney Minsky Sargeant has been recording as Working Men’s Club for the past seven years.

    Minsky Sargeant has also shared the first single from Lunga, “I Don’t Wanna.” Featuring delicate fingerpicking over restrained synths, Syd’s unadorned and intimate vocals are given center stage: “Confide in me / I’ll put down everyone / I’ll put down everything / If loving this is wrong then I don’t wanna be right.”

    Watch the video, directed by Nick Griffiths/&SON, for “I Don’t Wanna” above.

    Domino Records has announced its latest signing, Upchuck, the incendiary Atlanta punk band composed of KT (vocals), Mikey Durham (guitar), Hoff (guitar), Ausar Ward (bass), and Chris Salado (vocals, drums). Alongside the news, the band has also shared their scorching new single, “Plastic,” produced and mixed by fellow Domino Publishing writer Ty Segall. In a two-minute blitz of scuzzy guitars and spitting vocals, “Plastic” contains the key to Upchuck’s ethos of authenticity: in a PVC world of hollowness and artificiality, you have to fight to find what’s real. “Algo me hace falta (‘something is missing’),” Chris howls on the Spanish-language bridge. The answer, exhorts KT, is to “know classics – know truths – know reason – know you.”

    Upchuck burst into being in 2018 as a band of Atlanta skaters in their early 20s, fronted by the magnetic performer KT, and quickly became hometown heroes thanks to their uproarious live shows. 2022 saw the release of their debut full-length Sense Yourself on Brooklyn’s Famous Class Records, followed soon after by 2023’s Bite The Hand That Feeds, also produced by Ty Segall. Early singles like “Freaky” and “Facecard” won support from the likes of Iggy Pop and Henry Rollins, who both played tracks on their radio shows, as well as press attention for their “die-hard attitude” (Vogue) and “lightning-hot bursts of energy” (The Fader).

    The burgeoning legend of Upchuck’s live show continued to spread internationally, with support tours alongside fellow Atlantan Faye Webster – who calls Upchuck her favorite band – Amyl & The Sniffers, Soul Glo, OSEES, and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, and an attention-grabbing slot at Coachella 2024. “Everything explodes,” wrote Rolling Stone after catching them at SXSW. “The club becomes a sonic cannon, set to maximum destruction. Every song hits this hard.”

    Big Thief have announced their sixth studio album, Double Infinity, along with its lead single and opening track, “Incomprehensible.” The album follows their Grammy-nominated 2022 release, Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You, and is set for release on September 5th via 4AD.

    To bring Double Infinity to life, the trio spent three weeks biking through frozen streets between Brooklyn and Manhattan, gathering each day in the warm, wood-paneled studio at Power Station. There, joined by a community of musicians—including Alena Spanger, Caleb Michel, Hannah Cohen, Jon Nellen, Joshua Crumbly, June McDoom, Laraaji, Mikel Patrick Avery, and Mikey Buishas—they played together for nine hours a day. The sessions were recorded live with minimal overdubs, capturing the raw energy of their improvisations and shared discoveries. Longtime collaborator Dom Monks produced, engineered, and mixed the album.

    To celebrate the release, Big Thief will launch the first leg of their Somersault Slide 360 Tour. Marking their first U.S. shows in over a year, the tour begins in September with stops at iconic venues including Berkeley’s Greek Theatre, Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl, Boston’s MGM Music Hall, New York’s Forest Hills Stadium, and their debut show in Mexico at Teatro Metropolitan.

    Minneapolis-based band Night Moves have released “Ring My Bell,” the second single from their forthcoming album Double Life, out July 25th via Domino Records. Following the “colorful” (Stereogum) and “gorgeous” (Guardian) lead single “Hold On To Tonight,” “Ring My Bell” is its musical and emotional counterpart, with lead singer John Pelant extending an invitation to be asked for help whenever times get inevitably tough, all above the spring-loaded rhythm of drummer Mark Hanson, bassist Micky Alfano and guitarist Charles Murlowski. 

    Double Life is a cozy and cool LP built largely from a string of very rough breaks that frontman John Pelant and Night Moves have navigated in recent years. Alongside the ever-vexing question for artists about when they’re supposed to step into the responsibilities of adulthood and maybe away from the lifelong compulsion to create, especially as Pelant started thinking seriously about marriage for the first time in his life. Pelant is the sort of songwriter who starts with the music—inspired of late by Glen Campbell and Bobby Caldwell, Cleaners from Venus and early ’90s country, and (as ever) Gram Parsons—and then writes lyrics only after he’s sat with the tune a spell. But this time, these songs are direct documents of Pelant’s life as he searches for silver linings or at least valuable meanings during a moment when very little seemed golden. Double Life is about moving through, not moving on. 

    Additionally, Night Moves have announced their huge 2025 North American Tour with stops including a hometown release show at Minneapolis’ First Avenue, two nights at New York’s Bowery Ballroom, two nights at San Diego’s The Casbah, D.C.’s The Atlantis, Philadelphia’s Johnny Brenda’s, Los Angeles’ Teragram and more. 

    The single is released alongside a new video by longtime collaborator Shawn Brackbill – check it out above.
