Congratulations on the release of “POUR” how does it feel? I’m so happy with how Pour was received! Lots of people contacted me to say it really made them feel good and dance, even at home!! That was my goal, to spread good vibes! I also had 3 producers approach me to do different style remixes, so …
The Heavy North album just dropped! Let’s do this. The Genie It starts off with feedback to open it up, then drops into a blues jam, nothing less than what you’d expect from this band, it’s very 70s influenced – but what you don’t expect is the muted trumpet solo at around 2:38, it’s absolutely …
BODY WATER pose the question on their Spotify bio: “Why write about love when you can write about serial killers?” Well, why indeed? This is their debut single and it was on my shortlist as well as being in my Faves, it showed that in two years of being part of the Fresh On The …
I absolutely love this song. It came through via Fresh On The Net, and made it onto the listening post. It’s the lyrics. I mean, this lyrical ode to crisps kind of nails it! The singer talks about very passionately about how the person who he brought crisps did him wrong. References to Golden …

This track switched between indie rock, to ska then reggae and it does it effortlessly, this band is tight …
This is beautifully crafted 80s pop that I reckon Stock Aitken Waterman would be proud of.. I’m a fan for sure that’s my era! Airinna sent me this track and… I’m in love. This song is so catchy, great vocals great four on the floor beat which gets your foot tapping. I like the synth …
I chose to feature this song on the blog not least because the PR behind it Sally Newman is someone I trust implicitly with my music tastes but because… Well, this song changes and keeps my ears tickled with some music goodness. What do I mean? Good question. Well, when it starts it lulls you, …
Big Brooklyn Everyone, Everywhere I first heard Big Brooklyn four years ago when they released the album ‘Purpose’ ( CD Baby 2018). It has been a wait for the next release. Their big sound is as classy as their presentation and their new release ‘Everyone, Everywhere’ is out on 18th March. Once again, they delight …
The way this song starts interested me, the arpeggiated guitars in triplets following the drums. It’s a rich track and got me head nodding, it’s moody as the title suggests but don’t be fooled, because Jacob’s vocals are so strong, nothing deadpan about it, and made me want to listen to him again, with that …
