RIDE

Almost immediately after band’s formation 30 years ago, Ride became one of the defining stars of shoegaze genre. Their albums Going Blank Again and Nowhere still form part of the best of charts within this genre or music of the 90s in general. After a 21-year-long break, they made a comeback with their new album Weather Diaries (2017). Oxford-based four-piece released their latest EP Tomorrow’s Shore just ten days back. According to Pitchfork, “These leftovers from the UK band’s 2017 reunion album successfully position them in a contemporary context alongside peers like Tame Impala and Caribou.” More here.

 BADBADNOTGOOD

The Canadian band BadBadNotGood combines instrumental hip-hop with jazz improvisation. Their covers of hip-hop hits got viral which soon resulted in collabs with the biggest names of the genre such as Kendrick Lamar, Tyler, The Creator, Earl Sweatshirt or Danny Brown. The exceptionally productive released album IV in July 2016. The album features guest contributions including artists Pohoda visitors are familiar with: Samuel T.
