Track Of The Day: Arm’s Length – Hannah Cameron

This track is gorgeous! It drops right in the middle of waking up on New Year’s Day, next to someone that you’ve known for a long time, but it’s like you know the relationship is over because of the body language. At the same time the songwriter is saying that they are memorising everything so …

Track Of The Day: Off The Tracks – Freya Beer

Freya Beer dropped a new single that’s epic in story and epic in music. It references James Dean and driving fast – this could be applied in so many different ways, it could be a friend or a relative that’s taken a path that could destroy them, and Freya’s observing this from the passenger seat, …

Track Of The Day: It’s A Joke! – Graham Graham Beck

Track Of The Day: Another Star – Stevie Wonder

 This week marks 50 years since Stevie Wonder released this phenomenal album. It is a collection of songs that cover social justice, celebrating musical legends, parenthood and just a need to set the dancefloor alight. This song falls into the latter category, it’s got an infectious singalong chorus, percussion going wild, the whole band absolutely …

Track Of The Day: Angels – Lee Scratch Perry X Steve Marshall X Geo X Baddoo

As we cling on the last strands of the summer this track is pretty apt, it’s a chilled reggae track featuring  the late great reggae legend Lee Scratch Perry, this is dipped in spicy flavours with the dub feel to it, the bass rumbles through you and you hear Lee whisper a simple line: Singers …

Track Of The Day: Anything For You – Gloria Estefan And The Miami Sound Machine

I chose this song because in the 1990s when I was at 6th Form we used to spice up the faculty meetings by adding music to it – I’d play the piano for when people came in and then one of my friends would sing, and this is one of our favourites. Why do I …
