50 Issue 88 / 2016 INDIE Latitude is back for their 11th edition with a line up to envy! Taking place from 14th to 17th July in the stunning grounds of Henham Park, this year's event sees The Maccabees take a headline slot on Friday night with one of our favourites, The National taking control of Saturday night headline spot and British greats, New Order, on Sunday night duties. Latitude is a unique festival to its core, from it's location to choice of music and mix of theatre and comedy. As headliners, The National say "We love the genuine multi-disciplinary format of the festival and the grounds are enchanting to wander through". NEWS:THE LATITUDE LINE-UP IS LOOKING BIG ALBUM OF THE MONTH: EMAÉ - IMPERFECT WORDS EP Scottish-born singer-songwriter emaé announces her brand new fully acoustic EP titled Imperfect Words. Written, arranged and produced by emaé, the Imperfect Words EP also features collaborations with Gershom Mutambo and Courtney Jones on acoustic guitars, Charles DC Hall on Cajon and percussion, and Ivan Hussey on cello. The EP opens with an arresting call to action on 'Talk' as emaé sings, "there's no need to talk anymore […] show me what you're good for", before the infectious 'Northern Lights' captures the imagination with its hopeful and encouraging sentiment. Inspired by Maya Angelou, 'Why It Sings' reveals an introspective emaé as she battles a perceived rejection from those closest to her, while an acoustic version of previous single 'Know You' closes out the 4-track offering. Speaking about what this Imperfect Words EP means to her, and the inspiration behind the record, emaé says, "'Imperfect Words' is exactly that. Words from my life that are flawed and only the ones I'm learning as I go. They are the songs of my everyday; they come from that one time on the bus to work, or that time when my dreams felt more like a curse than a blessing". TRACK OF THE MONTH: DADA - BLACK HORSE London based psychedelic rock trio DaDa are set to release their debut single, 'Black Horse' with b-side 'Modern Twat' on 10th June via Black Wire Music. The trio, composed of James Schiavone (main vox, guitars, synths), Manuel Crisci (bass) and Ryhan Lovell (drums), draws influence from the likes of ATDI, Sonic Youth, Soft Machine, Frank Zappa, Robert Johnston, and Black Sabbath. DaDa combine flowing rhythms, captivating vocals and powerful lyrics, into a psychedelic sound. 'Black Horse' was recorded and mixed by friend of many years and member of Black Wire Music, Alex Ciani, and is a bold introduction to DaDa's world. "The song is about one of the most recurring sins of mankind for centuries, that DaDa believe is simply a proof of how as a species we still have much to learn and come to.
