The eagle eared of you may remembered this from last week, they dropped one of my favourite records from last year, Virile, with that amazing video and we made it No. 18 on the countdown of 2016. Not only have they made an amazing record but there’s an EP coming and another brilliant video to go with this, check it out online. This is The Territory, from The Blaze, coming out of Paris.
This week's featured Essential New Tune was featured in last week’s Friday show on BBC Radio 1. Listen again and forward to 29:35 mins here.
