With so much good music coming through thick and fast, it’s easy for new music to drop online and go unnoticed. To help prevent this, we’ve picked five releases that may have slipped past your radar. Stream music from Miles Bonny, Enrique Rodriquez, Mo Kolours, Twit One and Blu & Exile. If you like what you hear, support the artists.
Miles Bonny – Let It Out EP
Miles Bony and Ta-Ku come together to create the Let It Out EP. The pair perfectly compliments each other over five tracks of soulful magic, Ta-Ka providing his soul-drenched production with Miles’ emotive, intimate lyrics and smooth vocals sitting nicely on top. Worth your time and attention.

Enrique Rodriquez – Lo que es
The debut EP from Enrique Rodriquez is full of soulful and spacious soul/jazz tracks that have a modern feel touched with an old school vibe. Overall a very strong album introducing an exciting new talent. One to watch!

Mo Kolours – Axum EP
Following on from his recent ‘Meroe’ EP, Mo Kolours is back with another fine offering called, ‘Axum’. A tasty four track selection, this EP is packed with African grooves fused skillfully with contemporary beats and soundscapes. Limited 7″ vinyl release with original artwork by Mo Kolours. Don’t sleep!
