I recently had a chat online with @weeblade about @petshopboys and it made me think of this song. It was never released as a single, but was on their Behaviour album from 1990. This is typical of that era of the PSBs, it’s moody, and having been recorded on analog synths, it gives off that warmth. Lyrically it’s …
This track is a mesh of so many different influences and this is what attracted me tot it. First of all it starts off with a strummed acoustic guitar giving me the impression that it was a country song. That perception changed when the bass came in, I reckon it’s enhanced with a synth too. …
Hello Nathan how are you? I’m great, it’s nice to have a chat with you. Congratulations on the release of La Grande Salle’ how does it feel? Thank you so much. It feels really good—especially knowing that some of these songs waited a long time before being released. It’s a relief and a joy to …
Congratulations on the release of “Minute Man,” how does it feel to have the song out? It feels good! It’s been a fun one to promote so far because it definitely pushed me to get out of my comfort zone and regular motions! What’s the story behind the song? I had been listening to a …
Garlen Lo needs to actually release an album of songs with these types songs. Wholesome, humorous homemade songs that are just written to make you smile. He’s gone and done it again with this song, packed full of charm – if he’s writing this for someone in real life she needs to say yes! Hold …
Well, this is quite a mixture! This combines spoken word, with indie rock sensibilities but then you’ve got a spoken word element too and a little bit of hip hop too. This is a track that has an infectious hook, and it caught my attention immediately, it’s almost like a self help tape wrapped up …
This is an acoustic number, in 3/4 with triplets being played on toms… it draws you in so quickly! The thing that caught my ear was the falsetto that dominates the song – it’s on a slow burn, but then you realise the full impact of the song. The bit that got me was at …
Hello Sinead, how are you? I’m great- I’ve just done a headline show in Leeds & it was such a beautiful night of connectedness. I feel like the new EP is really resonating with audiences! Congratulations on the release of Stand. How does it feel? Thanks. It feels right- like a necessary step. Stand is a …
This is a track that I really enjoyed when it dropped on my inbox this morning. I like the darkness of the chord progression and tempo. The track just prowls, the drums provide the rhythm at half time but that also allows for triplets which gives the whole track space to groove. There are synth …
Neil March, Sherry Sahayaraj and Elena Trent are back with a track that’s got a real nice bounce to it! Following a great few months of live dates and extremely encouraging streaming numbers, as well as support from BBC Introducing and BBC Orbit you could call this a bit of a triumph. The bassline starts …
