Blue Lab Beats – Motherland Journey Sky Reflections The first track on this opens with with an instrumental, you could just imagine this as a concert entry music… The way that this starts off is uplifting, and I love it. I love the the synth chords start out, and I really need to find out …
Congratulations on the release of “Home” how does it feel? Thanks. It feels great! I’m delighted with how it sounds and I’m looking forward to people’s reaction to it. It’s a gorgeous track, what’s the story behind it? Thank you. It was written during lockdown. It was a pretty weird time for …
Lizzie Esau returns with a song that explores her using spoken word at the beginning of the track… There are so many things I like about this song it sounds like everyone’s walking into a rehearsal or live stage and then sitting down to get this song going.. Lizzie’s talent for writing a catchy melody …
Alice Offley just hit me in the gut with her bass, walked away laughing and left me doing the something stinks in the room face. This is high praise. Not many people get that award. Very rare. This song oozes funk, mixed with dance elements – synth bass to reinforce the live bass, four on …

The arrangement sticks faithfully to the …
This has such a smooth jazz feel to it.. the groove is trippy, and that’s the thing I like about it, Feds, comes in with a total buttery vocal and I like it, she’s having fun on this and I appreciate that… “Let’s take this day by day, don’t wanna say the words that I’ve …
Congratulations on the release of “Catch My Breath”, how does it feel? It is lovely, as the success of finishing it is the best! I find releases a bit like Christmases as a child. The build-up is tantalising, then the actual day can be a bit of a let-down. I am easily disappointed and …
Sophie Dorsten is back with a gorgeous new single, “Butterflies” and changes gear slightly with this. For one thing, it’s a little more bluesy in my ears to her previous tracks and has a little more soul. One thing I’ve always liked about Sophie is that she doesn’t compromise with her lyrics.
