Published

on

Music legends They Might Be Giants have returned with the release of a new live album “Beast of Horns”. Culled from recent touring, this new set of horn-oriented tracks captures the musical glory of TMBG’s expanded live format. Long celebrated for their electrifying shows, here we find the band joined by a virtual murderers row of horn talent with Stan Harrison on sax, Dan Levine on trombone and euphonium, and trumpet superstar Mark Pender (familiar to all from Conan O’Brien’s band). The album boasts 13 tracks including audience favorites “Doctor Worm,” “Museum of Idiots,” “The Darlings of Lumberland.”

TMBG’s Idlewild Recordings will not be releasing Beast of Horns on streaming platforms as a full-length album. Rather it is available on exclusive vinyl record, as a download, and on compact disc available from the TMBG Store and at brick-and-mortar record shops. Music streamers can enjoy a 4-song sampler at the service of their choice.

Also newly available is the 7-inch 45 vinyl featuring “Lazy,” TMBG’s recording of Irving Berlin’s classic 1924 song made in celebration of WNYC’s 100th anniversary as part of the station’sPublic Song Project. The 7-inch is backed with the track “Buckle Down, Winsocki” and is available for purchase here.

The band are also returning to the UK this November 2024 with their ‘An Evening With They Might Be Giants: Flood, BOOK and Beyond’ UK tour. Nine of the twelve dates across the country have already sold out and tickets are going fast for the remaining 3rd of November Shepherds Bush Empire London date and Southampton and Belfast shows, so don’t wait to book!

The shows will include two sets which span early favourites to songs from their new, Grammy-nominated album ‘BOOK’. TMBG’s superlative live band has now expanded to eight, with a three-piece horn section including trumpet virtuoso Mark Pender from the Conan show. This once-in-a-lifetime show is guaranteed to delight!

Reece Rosé Bottles the Feeling on “Misbehaving”

Published

Reece Rosé

Reece Rosé is not trying to reinvent the wheel. He is here to remind you why it worked in the first place. With “Misbehaving”, the rising electronic artist taps into something instantly familiar, then flips it into a feel-good house cut that lands right where nostalgia meets the dancefloor.

Teaming up with Capri Everitt, Reece Rosé leans into warm textures and groove-driven production that echo the roots of early ’90s house and UK garage. The result is effortless but intentional. Smooth chords, playful rhythms, and just enough bounce to keep things moving without overcomplicating the mood.

“Misbehaving” plays like a memory you did not realize you still had. Late nights, no responsibilities, music loud enough to blur everything else. It pulls from that space where time felt slower but nights somehow lasted longer. “It’s a reminder of those carefree high school days, when life felt simple, the nights felt endless, and the only thing that mattered was the music and the memories we were making,” Rosé explains. And that feeling runs through every second of the track.

What makes it click is that it never gets stuck in the past. The influences are clear, but the execution stays sharp and current. This is not revival for the sake of it. It is a continuation. Rosé understands the DNA of dance music and builds on it, keeping the energy light, summery, and forward-facing.

That balance is quickly becoming his signature. With international airplay on Kiss FM UK and Insomniac Radio, plus support from names like AC Slater, Zeds Dead, Boombox Cartel, DJ Q, REH4B, and DJ Craze, his momentum is building in all the right places. On Beatport, his releases are already making noise, proving that his sound connects both in clubs and beyond.

“Misbehaving” does not try too hard. It does not need to. It is light, nostalgic, and built to move. The kind of track that makes you look back for a second, then pulls you straight into the moment.
