About positive music news

Here you’ll find new releases and reviews, artist profiles and stories about the place music has in people’s lives, from festival stages to local scenes.

Reviews tend to score on their tone, so an enthusiastic review usually sits higher on the spectrum than a critical one. Slide the spectrum up for the most glowing picks.

Over the last month, most music stories here came from Pitchfork, BBC World News and Designboom.

Hopeflo checks its sources every hour and scores each story from 0 (heavy) to 100 (uplifting) with AI. By default you see stories that score 40 or more; the spectrum at the top of the page changes that. How Hopeflo works
