On my first listen of Nova Twins I wasn’t too sure about their combination of punk, rock and grime. After the second track I still wasn’t 100% sold, but I kept listening and a few hours later caught myself humming those massive choruses and singing, “you know what time it is, murder that bassline bitch,” under my breath. They’re playing a day party I’m going to this weekend and knowing I’ll be belting it out as loud as anyone after a couple of beers.

The London duo count Missy Elliott, Melody Gardot and Jack Black as influences and this eclectic mix is obvious in their work. They also reference grime MC Solo 45 on a track and their combination of styles is reminiscent of Twenty One Pilots (although Nova Twins have more bite). I first heard about them when they were booked by the prestigious Afropunk for their London festival, and it’s not hard to see why they got this big look so early in their career. They have the potential to be huge.
