When I first heard this track my first question was…. WHO’S GOING TO PAY £15 FOR A KEBAB???? Pre covid there used to a kebab shop near my house that I used to treat myself to every so often, you’d get a large portion inside a pitta with your choice of toppings for less than …
To close the faves this week, we have a track from Yodashe, this track starts off with glitched synths then drums are added – just rim shot and kick to begin with as well as a harsh clap. The vocals come in high and strong – another song that’s bordering on the theatrical, because there …
I like the way this beginnings with clashing notes, it’s very punk, but not very heavy! I think the split sections is a running theme this week, because this has a pretty solid b section at 2:39, where everything drops back to a purr, and it’s just guitar and vocals. The atmospherics on this really …
Roller Derby start this track off with a synth intro that fades up. It gives you the false impression that it’s a ballad as it’s just keyboards and vocals, guitars and a drum machine up until 0:18. Then the drums, bass, and guitar come in fully turning this into a wider track with a bigger …
Now this track has an a great little twist, I like the fact that Penfriend is using a synth bass to give it that much of a fuzz over rock drums, the beat is steady, and gives Laura space to put in a great performance vocally on this. She switches between spoken word to really …
The first line says it all – “People make mistakes – that’s why pencils have erasers”. It’s spoken from the get go and that line stays with you. It certainly did with me. It lists the way that people make mistakes, and I like the way it’s done, it switches between spoken word and singing. …
Hello Liza how are you? Hey! I’m very well thank you! Truly hope you are too. I’m great thanks for asking! You’re a singer songwriter and multi instrumentalist from Amsterdam how did it all begin for you? I started writing songs on the piano, it was more just random blurbs of songs, like small poems …
Mia Wilks is back with a new single, and this one is a stunning acoustic number in 3/4 time. Having had Mia on my radar for the last year or so, I know that she’s very capable of multiple genres. She’s very thoughtful with her lyrics, and this is a case in point. “Don’t be …
Hello Riley how are you? I’m actually pretty well all things considered. Thanks for being so patient with me getting back to you on this. The fires here have been devastatingly surreal, but thankfully our firefighters and first responders have been doing an incredible job. Everyone I know and love is safe, which is the …
Congratulations on the release of Mrs. Other how does it feel? It feels nice to get it out. Compared to some other tracks I was able to get this one sorted quite quickly. I feel good about this one: it hits a sweet spot. What’s the story behind the song? The song’s basically about getting …
