Hello Lola, how are you? I’m good thank you ❤️ Hope you’re well!I’m great thankyou for asking! Congratulations on the release of “Jump The Gun” how does it feel? Thanks so much! Releasing Jump The Gun feels absolutely amazing. It’s always a mix of excitement and anxiety inducing nerves putting new music out into the world, but …
Well! Vulfpeck dropped fire again. I mean it’s Vulfpeck… what do you expect? Just to give you a bit of background, I get recommended tracks from everywhere. There are the usual sources, instagram, Spotify release radar, going through the FOTN inbox, Apple Music, the precious PRs, pluggers, record labels, other bloggers… but this one? This …
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 …
Now this is an interesting one, very jazzy, and sophisticated. I love jazzy and sophisticated. In a listening post that sat comfortably among folk songs, hip hop and a full blown concerto this just testifies to the taste of the team and the diversity of what comes through. It makes it hard to choose your …
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 …
First of all, let’s get this out of the way. Hiromi is a badass on the piano. No. Let me say it louder for those that didn’t hear me in the back. Hiromi is a badass on the piano. I SAID WHAT I SAID! This track starts off with a fun synth lead, it’s an …
In honour of the epic news that The Doobie Brothers and Michael McDonald are putting out a new album after 40 years I thought I’d revisit this classic track from 1976. What do I like about this song? Well. EVERYTHING! The first time I ever heard it was when I watched Forrest Gump. It was …
This track is bluesy, and I LOVE IT! You’ve got everything on here. They through everything at this track – is that a Jewish Harp??? Very possible. The guitar at the beginning starts off with a bit of a growl, I think I can imagine Eric Clapton giving a nod of approval and nudging John …
This song is one of those ones you’re supposed to have with your morning cuppa. It starts off with a cymbal swell, then Naima Girou comes in with this beautiful BEAUTIFUL vocal that for some reason really just made me smile. She’s playing her double bass and it fits in so smoothly. This switches from …
