Fresh Faves: Batch 613

ADAM WEDD – YOU ATE MY SANDWHICH! ADAM WEDD · U ATE MY SANDWHICH! Adam Wedd opens Fresh Faves with a song that I immediately connected with – even before hearing the song I read the title and my first thought was – Ross Geller losing it in that little known TV show Friends from …

Fresh Faves: Batch 611

ANNA RAN – Vultures With Guilt Anna Ran · Vultures with Guilt To open the faves we have a really gentle track in 6/8 time and it’s beautiful! Bathed in reverb this has a prog rock ballad feel to it, and the dreamy sounds of guitars, drums bass and synths really help it along! This …

Track Of The Day: “Joy” – Martin Smith X Watoto Choir

I’ve just discovered this little beauty released on the 7th August! This is gospel music with an anthemic chorus that you can imagine echoing in churches around the world – hold that thought. Martin Smith is no stranger to writing anthemic hymns – after all it was 30 years this year that I heard Thankyou …

Chillout Track Of The Day: “Barber’s Adagio For Strings” – William Orbit

Ana Bulnes delivers a performance that isn’t reliant on the …

Fresh Faves: Batch 612

AROUND ABOUT DUSK- without you Around About Dusk · Without You This has such a World War II era jazz feel to it, none of the gloss that came later on, but the kind you’d expect in the background of a period drama. This could be playing in the background on a grainy gramophone, at …

Fresh Faves: Batch 610

AZU YUCHE – Weak Azu Yeché · Weak Azu Yeché opens the faves this week with something a little special.. This has the classic soul around it, I’d even go as far as to say this has neo soul vibes – it reminds me of D’Angelo with those guitar licks! Clean tone! Add to that …
