The latest release from Archy Marshall – previously known as King Krule and before that, Zoo Kid – is his most mature. A nicely packaged album, book and short film provide an insightful look into the artist's life and creative process. The music itself is his best work to date; a slight departure from past records, it sees Marshall experimenting more with instrumentals, which demonstrate a notable evolution in his production abilities. Overall there's a less traditional structure, allowing the London-based musician to create an intimate and sometimes darker atmosphere.

The iconic i-D magazine recently relaunched their website, having been purchased by a certain controversial and divisive free publication and media company (the clue is in the domain name). Among the editorials, street-style photographs and model profiles are a couple of interesting interviews that you won't need to bother going to the newsagents for. Why leave your house anyway? Just put something on the stereo, maybe that 6 Feet Beneath the Moon record you've been pretending you're not that impressed by, and read this interview with it's creator Archy Marshall. A spokesperson for overachieving young gingers everywhere.
