I have one word for this. WOW. It starts off as a piano led ballad. Very atmospheric. Lots of swirly synthy things that whisk you back to the 90s…. Somewhere in the distance, you hear the drums. Those drums are tribal. Well actually no it’s the signal of the children born in the 90s where …
Michaela Betts – The Rose Oh. This is beautiful. It starts off with a sparse arpeggiated piano part, then draws in a cello to give it the necessary bass part. But then it drops into a beautiful electro synth piece that just gets better and better and better with each listen. My mate Nick would …
Hello Lizzie how are you? I’m good thanks I hope you are too! I’m great thankyou for asking! Congratulations on the release of “Bitter Weather” how does it feel? It feel great to have this one out! It’s a song that really sums up how I’ve felt recently so it’s almost therapeutic to have it …
Pārvāti – Song Of The Year (A History Of Cool) Don’t let the title fool you. This is not what you think. No the writer doesn’t have an inflated ego. First of all, let’s talk about the music, it’s a simple song – nice use of synths, and plods along nicely. The lyrics are the …
Cable Street Collective – The Wolf The Collective are back! Bringing with them a song that’s a full BBQ plate of food with its solid flavours…. You can almost smell that party food in the summer heat! The song grooves on nicely with some beautiful guitar licks, Aaron knows I’m a fan of his from …
Hello George, how are you? Hi Del, I am very well, thank you for asking. Congratulations on the release of “Take My Name”, how does it feel? Thank you very much – it is always a little nerve-jangling putting something out, but happily the lack of expectation that comes from being such a …
This was a fun listen! I like the use of different vocal samples at the beginning, and the lyric “I get my words off the menu, I wanna go a la carte did I say something to offend you come round and be my Bonaparte” made me sit up and listen… It’s a song that’s …
Project Concubine – Heart Train Project Concubine are back with a new single, and as usual it breaks the rules in terms of how it sounds. The vocals are processed and put through a warp as with the beat behind it, it’s a very inventive sound and it works really well with the mystery that …
This has a gorgeous Celtic feel, violin leading the way, and it just whisks you away across windswept greenery… It’s a gorgeous melody that just made me close my eyes and dream… It reminds me of something I’d hear as a romantic theme in a film, introducing the heroine with attitude, the leader, the heart …
Leeds based duo Sunflower Thieves make a welcome return with their single “Sirens”. I love the vocals on this and the production is outstanding nothing overpowering the overall song. This is typical of Amy and Lily’s musical style, and I’m here for it.. There’s a synth part that accompanies the chorus that I need to …
