This tune is stunning! This could easily be one of my top tunes of the year! 16th notes on the hi hat with with percussion, lovely bit of electric piano but then the chorus hits with that distorted bass…. The vocals are so soulful it hurts… oh lord the guitar solo! Wowwwwwwwww! I’m in heaven …
Single Review: “Retrospective” – Charlotte Adelle
The thing that struck me about this song was the atmospheric production of it. It’s epic, the single note on the piano keeping time, along with the swirling synths. This is beautiful. The chorus is where it got me though both lyrically and musically. The song starts off with the acceptance that no amount of …
Single Review: “The One” – Leigh Thomas
have one question to ask. Why is Leigh not playing packed out arenas? This dude has just released a single that packs a solid punch, it comes with an intro that hits the ground running. And it sounds like he’s got a full band in the studio and they’re having a ball; this is a …
Single Review: “The World Is Here For You” – Immy Owusu
This track grooves on nicely! It reminds me of the music that we used to play in my house growing up in so many ways – the analogue sounds including the organ, which I’m going to hazard a guess at being a Vox. The synth lead gives it away that this artist is influenced by …
Single Review: “Wonder” – Mikey J
This is a track from Australian artist Mikey J, and it’s…. Bluesy! It’s a slow tempo track from his new album “Wondering”, and it’s lyrically it’s a reassurance about how his love would never change. It starts off with a set of questions: “Do you ever wonder if this life would be the same? If …

Single Review: “Bite The Bullet” – Viceroy Jack
Well! This definitely cleared the sinuses first thing on a freezing Thursday morning! The crunchy guitars that start it off are brilliant, but buckle in… The big shout of “HEY!” before the full band come in is the clue. It gets rowdy! I love the way that this gets going, the drums are big and …
Blog Interview: Mikey J
Hello Mikey how are you? I’m well thanks Del, hanging out for the end of the school year, but can’t complain too much! Congratulations on the release of “Suburban Musings”. How does it feel? It’s amazing. I think it is by far my most ‘polished’ release and am pretty proud of the …
Blog interview: Byron Smith
You are a singer/songwriter from Melbourne Australia how did it all begin for you? Music has been a big part of my life from an early age. My older brother played guitar and when I was about four or five, I used to sneak into his room when he wasn’t around and strum away on …
