Hot on the heels of his debut LP and follow up 7", Fake Laugh, AKA Kamran Khan, delivers yet two more bangers for the kids, in the form of another double A-side. The driving, dream-pop bop that is "Honesty" features guest vocals from Poppy Hankin of previous tour-mates Girl Ray, whilst the skittish, social commentary of "Surrounded" hurtles along set against a backdrop of razor-sharp melodies and instant-hit hooks.

Luscious double A side on limited edition 7". Following on from the release of his self-titled, debut album (HEADCOUNT 052CD/051LP, 2017) Kamran Khan delivers these two very different but equally peachy cuts. The London and Berlin based songwriter once again recruited Theo Verney to help produce the brutally honest love ballad "Better For Me" and the fuzzed-up earworm "On Loop" -- both offering a fresh take on the personal journey of Fake Laugh. With more releases planned for the immediate future, man like Kamran Khan is on a roll.

French artist Ta-Ra has built up quite a following since arriving on the scene with her hit track "Lil Bit". Now clocking up over 1 million views on YouTube, the track set her apart from the crowd and laid the foundation for her self-released TuaregShawty EP in 2014. After a string of shows across Europe and the Far East, Ta-Ra is ready to drop her first vinyl in the form of mini-LP SunrayZ. Collaborating with fellow French producers like NxxxxxS and Myth Syzer, among others, she delivers eight tracks of dreamscape R&B for the heads. Whether it's the Blade Runner-esque "Kawaskai Ninja" evoking luminous, noir-like imagery or the hazy, chill-wave transitions of "Death Ray", Ta-Ra constantly reminds you why so many are hooked on her ethereal sound.

Whilst perpetually in tune with the digital disconnect of contemporary life, Fake Laugh's self-titled album is a vivid rummage through sixties US-pop standards and British alternative stalwarts. Fake Laugh showcases a familiar world of love, confusion, and self-questioning, refocused through the bright lens of the London/Berlin based artist Kamran Khan. Tirelessly writing and recording whenever he can, a busy 2016 saw Khan release the energetic Ice EP, the bubbly trepidation of double A side with Mind Tricks/Birdsong Lullaby, and the more complex and serene Great Ideas EP (2016). All three were important steps towards manifesting the right combination for this eagerly anticipated debut. Khan confesses that once upon a time, Fake Laugh was "a bit of fun on the side". However, now with the project his sole focus, there's a revitalized commitment to recording that has seen him finishing the album in 2017. Reuniting once again with producer Theo Verney (Traams, O.Chapman) in Brighton, Khan has brought the intimacy of his bedroom and added it to a more luscious environment. Certain parts of the record date as far back as 2013, whilst others were recorded only just months before the album's release. The result is a record that flows with a wise but youthful abandon. Echoing latter Belle & Sebastian records -- that retained their adolescent flare and longing -- Khan has fortified his dreams rather than forgotten them.
