Ghosts of Our Former Selves Continue To Impress With New Release Golden
Ghosts of Our Former Selves are a London-based band who continue to impress, and this is no more evident than on their latest release – EP Golden – which is another top-notch release from the band.
Although the title track previously appeared on their 2021 album, Night Church, it was only after the band’s frontman, Theo Brehony, recently became a father that it was considered as a standalone single. In an argument with an old flame, Theo was once told he had “golden boy mentality” and that he couldn’t be a “golden man”. A few years later, and with his first son on the way, he drew inspiration from these words and put pen to paper.
“I met my wife a few years later and I was about to become a dad… I decided to raise him just as my mother had with me”, says Theo. “You need to remember those emotions and unfiltered moments and recreate them whenever you can. I’m doing it all again – my son is the golden boy now…”
The Golden EP, which also includes a brilliant cover of “Mother and Child Reunion” by Paul Simon, is available to buy/stream now on all platforms. Listen below…

Rising Stars Dandy And Ramraz Deliver An Emotional Knockout With “Couldn’t Make a Sound”
Dandy and Ramraz’s latest single, “Couldn’t Make a Sound,” is a masterclass in blending raw emotion with immersive production. The Israeli duo craft a soundscape that’s both delicate and powerful, weaving elements of 2-step garage, jungle, and bedroom pop into a track that feels deeply personal yet universally relatable. The lyrics hit hard, with lines like “I guess my inner child is dead now” exposing unfiltered vulnerability. Dandy’s soft, almost ethereal vocals glide over the pulsating beat, creating a haunting contrast between pain and movement.
What makes this track truly stand out is its ability to turn silence into sound—both literally and metaphorically. The production is crisp and dynamic, pulling the listener into a rhythmic push-and-pull that mirrors the emotional tension at the heart of the song. “Couldn’t Make a Sound” is more than just a song; it’s an experience—one that makes a big impression on you. With their upcoming EP on the way, Dandy and Ramraz prove they’re not just making music; they’re creating moments that demand to be felt.
