As soon as Dry Cleaning finished their debut album New Long Leg – critically acclaimed across the board and number four in the UK album charts – they immediately set about moving fowards. Having already started writing their second record before their first was released, they proposed to producer John Parish that they spend twice as much time on the follow-up, Stumpwork.
Listen to the album and you can feel that increased boldness - vocals which coil tightly around deft and complex riffs, great meshes of instrumental texture and the willingness to launch into full-on abstraction. It is a heady mix that is entirely Dry Cleaning’s own, distinguishing from their contemporaries. “We felt more confident,” says guitarist Tom Dowse. “We could see the bigger picture and knew where to focus our energy more efficiently.”
Ultimately, what defines Dry Cleaning’s second album is the breadth of its scope. Their music is bolder and more expansive.
Jungle by Night are seven Dutch guys who together form a live act to be reckoned with.
Indonesians living in the Netherlands, embracing their musical roots, bring their own unique vision of how that should sound in 2025.
The music of Nusantara Beat feels like stepping into an old film, taking you on a journey to distant places. It's an incredibly exciting fusion of genres. Best of all, it’s wildly fun and refreshingly different!
Only at G! can you experience something like this in the Faroe Islands.
Taking her name from a mythical vanishing planet, Min Taka shares her inner world through a genre-bending sound that moves between indie, liquid drum ‘n bass, and synth-hyper pop, and songs that touch on themes of identity, belonging, femininity, and connection. The Rotterdam artist’s sonic universe ranges from intimate and soft to intense electronic commotion. Inspired by the likes of Mitski, Caroline Polacheck, Cocteau Twins, Kero Kero Bonito, and Charli XCX, the pixie pop artist’s debut album Partiyi Durdurun! was released in December 2023.
How is it possible that Hiqpy is suddenly the next big thing, while there is still no music on Spotify? The Amsterdam band flew from the Conservatory via the travelling Popronde circus to Record Store Day talent to over 40 festival shows in 2024. Bizarre. Last year Hiqpy opened Noorderslag with a short set on the talent stage, now they are back for the real deal. What can you expect? Classy songs, passion, echoing adlibs and fuzzy guitars.
What started as a solo project by Kaat Van Stralen evolved into a four-headed genre-defying punk band. Kaat sings in Dutch and plays a mix of punk, alternative spoken word and indie with a strong feminist approach. After winning the prestigious Belgian music competition De Nieuwe Lichting, she played over 60 shows in 2025. Leading music magazine HUMO described her hit ‘Stop Met Wenen’ as ‘the most important Belgian song in years’. Her first release will be out in November, with launch concerts in December at Depot Leuven, Merleyn Nijmegen, and MEZZ Breda.
