Welcome, ! We're delighted to be working with one of the most compelling new acts emerging from Ireland right now, led by Cork songwriter Pat Carey, formerly of much-loved indie band The Hard Ground.

How I Became A Wavehas released second single, ‘Fading Out’ today which is now available across platforms.

📣 "We originally released ‘Fading Out’ in 2021, in the middle of Covid. It was very much a product of its time, with so many parts recorded in isolation, and a need to kind of reach out into the world. With the re-worked version we wanted to give it some extra life, to bring more of the context of the whole upcoming album to bear on the sound."

First Time Flyers debut album touched down last week, with lead single 'Do You Remember?' picking up some great playlists on DSPs!

"Bound To Break’" is more than a debut - it’s a document of survival, transformation, and truth. Across 15 tracks, the band explores what happens when life cracks you wide open: the heartbreaks, the healing, and all the growing pains in-between. It’s country music at its core - storytelling steeped in soul, honesty, and four-part harmony - but with a modern, cinematic edge.

Available everywhere now!

LASTELLE unleash their first physical release tomorrow - a “Dracula’s Blood” effect 12″ LP covering their acclaimed EPs, available on vinyl for the first time.

Exist is the band at their most ambitious: sprawling, emotionally immersive tracks that carry the listener from moments of quiet reflection into unrestrained, cathartic climaxes; guaranteed to resonate across the alt, post-rock, and post-hardcore scenes.

The biggest threat to the music industry right now isn’t piracy or streaming economics, it’s AI. If we don’t build the right safeguards, artists and rightsholders (especially indies) will lose out.

Our MD Simon Wills has written about this for Music Week, and we'd love to hear what others think. Let’s talk about what’s really happening and what we can do together.

The new collab from Entasia & SHUFFA landed last week on ec2a picking up a great spread of playlists on DSPs

Entasia and Manny’s own SHUFFA may have made this double-dipper from opposite sides of the world, but they find common ground in fast organ house and their shared rough and rowdy ways.

“Got U Groovin’” is uplifting without rotting your teeth, as arena-sized synth and piano melodies helix around each other. The vocal hook teases the boast of a title, but just as you think the high point is through, the melody digs deep and draws a euphoric second wind.

Available everywhere now!
