Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.
The Big Pink
Stay Gold
Months of teaser clips finally give way to a full track from The Big Pink's forthcoming second album. Elements of PiL's "Rise" combine with band's familiar epic electro.
Girls
My Ma
As seen on indie-loving US chat show 'Late Night with Jimmy Fallon', where they were backed by house band The Roots. An unusually slow track from the scuzz popsters.
Space Fight
22
Radio-friendly indie led by a frantic drum and bass beat. The bouncy low end and almost synthetic guitar tones make this prime remix-bait.
Peaking Lights
Mixxed Up
An eclectic 86-minute party mix that veers from African field recordings to 1960s soul or full-on dub reggae.
Two Inch Punch
Up in Your Mix
The vocal may sound pretty UK garage, but the cut'n'splice backing keeps things fresh.
SBTRKT
XFM Mix
This set by the London producer came from Mary Anne Hobbs's new prime time XFM show and merges the likes of Little Dragon, Gold Panda, Zomby and Disclosure.
Trash Talk
Awake
Extreme dual-vocal hardcore whose influences include UK punk's Hard to Swallow.
Girl Crisis
The Sign
The Brooklyn collective rework this 1990s Ace of Bass hit into a haunting, extremely lo-fi slice of anti-folk.
Pengilly's
Toby's Hill
Sparse, detached pop for fans of The xx or James Blake.
