There’s cowboy talk with Paul and Carolyn this week courtesy of a rootin’ tooting’ new record from Opus Kink. This is joined by a fantastic new single from Jungle, new music from Samantha Crain, and some brilliant new hip hop by Brockhampton and Vic Mensa. There’s also German-themed music from a band who met at art college, which is exactly what you might expect. Last but by no means least, MGMT give the Metronomy track a vital update to celebrate 10 years of The English Riviera.

Crimes Against Pop – aka Paul Haswell and Carolyn Wright – have been DJing together since 2003, when they launched their eponymous monthly residency at the Buffalo Bar in London.

As well as hosting their own regular sold out nights in London, Haswell and Wright appeared regularly at Rob Da Bank's Bestival festival on the Isle of Wight, before moving to Hong Kong in 2010 and 2011, respectively. Since then, Crimes Against Pop have brought their eclectic mix of pop, hip-hop, r’n'b and electronica to major events such as Clockenflap and the Rugby Sevens, while earning a reputation for packing the dancefloor at bars and clubs across the city. They’re also known for getting Sunday mornings off to the perfect start with their Pop Fugitives radio show on RTHK3.
