My "Best of 2016" turned out to be an epic 80+ tracks.

Other than several tracks being repositioned on the list itself, the list represents pretty much in chronological order when I heard the tracks throughout the year. Position is not representative of ranking in terms of preference. In some instances, the track itself may well have been recorded earlier than 2016 but has been selected for inclusion based on its availability on Soundcloud.

I'm always looking for suitable content for my playlists. If your track fits the bill, please feel free to contact me.

With their debut album due out next year, Novella share a glimpse at what's to come with their new Murmurs EP, released on cassette on Monday 14th October via Italian Beach Babes.

Featuring four new songs recorded in one day by Jack Cooper from Mazes and Mark Jasper at SoundSavers in Homerton, the tape showcases a collection of songs being worked on by the band ahead of recording their forthcoming album. Listen to '' here:

The radiant 'Blue Swallows' and slow, bass-heavy swell of 'Follow' might be familiar to fans, have been refined over the course of many live shows, and come paired with an unfinished jam called 'Phrases', as well as a slow-paced version of last year's Shangri-La's inspired single, 'Mary's Gun'. 

The band are going into the studio at the end of the year to record their new album, and their last show of the year will be the cassette tape launch party in a few weeks' time:

Friday 11th October - The Shacklewell Arms, London (w/ Blueprint Blue)


Novella are Sophy, Suki, Hollie and Iain
