Another cracking New Music Friday for our very own @puttingitonwax. Check out what he’s been working on: @littlesimz - Women @Fickle Friends - Weird Season Vol 2 EP @thisisLUMP - Animal @Babaxli - Black Wagon @FrancMoody - Tired of Waiting

Metropolis is proud to support @nordoffrobbins new campaign that educates us all about the vital power of music therapy. “We Are Listening” was created in response to the core belief of the music therapists - that when you truly listen, the impact can radically enrich the lives of those who are most vulnerable. Check out episode 3 of We Are Listening: ‘Spectrum of Change’ recorded in Studio 🅰️ here at Metropolis.  In this inspiring episode, @paulfrithmusic , a modern composer, has collaborated with 12 of our music therapists to create an original piece of music, feeding into the subject of autism. Each therapist listened to the motif they were passed, changed one element of it and then passed it to the next therapist. Each time the piece was passed on, although structurally it was the same, its components were extended... like the telephone game of music!   These subtle changes reflect how Nordoff Robbins therapists can help facilitate small changes, that have big impacts on how those with autism engage and interact with the world. In the initial stages before this was created, Paul and the music therapists looked at music therapy and autism. How the world around someone on the autism spectrum can be overwhelming, with all of the sensory information not really making sense. ‘Spectrum of Change’ is about how music can help bring regulation in an otherwise chaotic world.

We are beyond excited to see @realsirtomjones’ album ‘Surrounded by Time’ be number 1 on the @officialcharts!💥 This album was mastered by our engineer @puttingitonwax and we can’t be more happy to have been a part of this remarkable project!🥳
