Bristol Music Weekly

Post-Festival Glow ✨

Wow, Bristol. Is everyone still recovering from **Simple Things Festival**? What a weekend! The whole city was electric, and it felt like a proper celebration of everything that makes our scene so special. Just when we thought we could catch our breath, the city's producers and bands have unleashed another absolutely massive week of new music. This week is all about cross-scene collaborations, from D&B meeting hip-hop to indie-pop and, most importantly, some fantastic music for a great local cause. Let's get into it.

Bandcamp Picks 🎶

Mitsubio – "Don't Say Anything"

Mitsubio’s “Don’t Say Anything” is a moody, minimalist release that plays with space, tension and restraint. Sparse yet evocative, it suggests emotion held back, unspoken and charged. A subtle pause in the week’s rush.

Will Clarke – "Call My Name"

Will Clarke’s “Call My Name” marks a return to vocal-driven house, pairing his production finesse with emotive lyricism. The tune glides between club readiness and radio-friendly appeal, with that Bristol pedigree shining through.

Wardamercy – "Bring Me Love"

Wardamercy’s “Bring Me Love” is a soulful, uplifting house track from the Lucky Sounds project. With its message of giving back, all proceeds from the scratch-cards support Caring in Bristol. It’s as much about heart as it is about beat.

Nik Fury – "Buggy"

Nik Fury drops “Buggy”, a gritty, dark-house cut with heavy bass, clipped percussion and a sense of underground momentum. It’s built for club shadows and late-night sets where the floor moves without words.

Spotify Drops 🔥

Sophira – "Courtship"

Sophira makes a striking entrance via Bass Militia Records with “Courtship”. The track fuses speed garage rhythms and neurofunk intensity into a sonic sparring match between emotion and machine precision. It’s bold, dark, and a statement piece from Bristol’s next-gen bass producers.

Visionobi, R3IDY & Teej – "Enamour"

“Enamour” unites Bristol’s Visionobi with production duo R3IDY & Teej in a groove-laden joint that hovers between D&B and soulful hip-hop. With rich bass textures and lyrical flow, it pulls Bristol’s rap-meets-bass culture into sharp focus.

Couples Holiday – "Shelf Life"

With “Shelf Life”, Couples Holiday deliver a lush, introspective indie-pop single that slows the pace. Soft instrumentation, emotional vocal delivery and a sense of pause mark this as a standout for late-night listening. A quieter gem in a week of bass-heavy releases.

Mista Congo & Kemikali – "Kissi Dugu"

“Kissi Dugu” by Mista Congo and Kemikali brings in afro-bass energy, choppy rhythms and strong vocal hooks. The track ripples with cross-cultural influences, layered percussion and a dance-floor ready bounce. Afro-bass meets the Bristol underground.
