Crimewave – SCENES

Posted on Nov 7th, 2025 in Releases by Mr. Goldbar

On the surface, Crimewave’s SCENES plays as a conceptual dance record about Northern UK nightclubs. Its true fixation lies in the subtle criminal acts and misdemeanours that go almost unnoticed within these spaces – a vision brought vividly to life under the production of Rainy Miller.

The project is conceived as a continuous DJ set, with each track bleeding seamlessly into the next. Glitched-out guitars, strobing chords and fractured breaks are utilised to convey both the euphoria of the dance floor, and the half-seen acts of criminality lurking in the club’s grimy corners.

Crimewave – Instrumentals

Posted on Oct 24th, 2025 in Releases by Mr. Goldbar

Manchester’s Crimewave has been setting the stage for his upcoming album, Scenes, with singles like “Semaphore” and “White Label.”
The final single, “Instrumentals”, teases the album on its most reflective note. Built from glitching guitars and warped loops that stutter like broken circuitry, it carries the melancholic pull of a shoegaze ballad more than any other track while still remaining catchy.

The Cool Kids – Hi Top Fade LP

Posted on Oct 10th, 2025 in Releases by Mr. Goldbar

The Cool Kids are back with their brand new album, Hi Top Fade. This 15 track masterpiece is the first TCK project in three years as well as the first album The Cool Kids have released on Fool’s Gold, even though Chuck Inglish and Sir Mike have been part of FG’s extended family since the start. Back in 2007 they hopped on many dates of the inaugural Fool’s Gold tour, and there’s been countless collaborations since, so it only feels right to get everyone back together 18 years later for Hi Top Fade. Featuring Pink Siifu, Radamiz, A-Trak, Sango, Seafood Sam, Jess Connelly, QUiN and Diamond Cafe, this album a masterful display of the unique style The Cool Kids have been building for decades.

Crimewave – Semaphore

Posted on Sep 26th, 2025 in Releases by Mr. Goldbar

‘Second single ‘Semaphore’, is a paranoid and robotic signal flare from the club. Its looping refrain, ‘fixated eyes, malignant smiles, another semaphore’, captures the sense of coded warnings and uneasy recognition when stepping into a volatile space. Musically, the track locks glitching, distorted guitars into rigid, strobing electronics, its industrial edge building a sense of dread before surging into urgent, body-moving release.’

The Cool Kids – Foil Bass

Style is something that can’t be taught. You can’t take a Masterclass on how to effortlessly float on tracks like Sir Michael Rocks or make boombox-shattering beats like Chuck Inglish. Every time you think you have The Cool Kids figured out, they flip it on you — and this happens multiple times on “Foil Bass,” the 2nd single from their highly anticipated 2025 return. The lunchroom-table beat morphs into an outer space number, while your favorite rapper’s favorite rappers jump between flows like vets. Feels good to hear them boys in the zone.

The Cool Kids – Banana In The Tailpipe (ft. Seafood Sam)

Posted on Jul 31st, 2025 in Releases by Mr. Goldbar

If you close your eyes and think “The Cool Kids,” what you’ll hear in your head is essentially Banana In The Tailpipe. Booming, raw Chuck Inglish drums, his and Mikey Rocks’ voices floating over the track talking about getting fly. In this case we get a guest feature from Long Beach’s Seafood Sam. This is exactly what we’ve wanted from those Chicago boys who set off the trends back in the Blog Era and kept their track record immaculate in the 17 years since that Black Mags video broke the internet. Suddenly everything feels right in the world.
