Blog interview: B.K.W.H

Hello B.K.W.H how are you?  I’m good thank you!  A mixture of excitement, optimism and slight nervousness….Which I think is  fairly normal for a single campaign.

Single Review: “I Do” – Jerry Barnes

This is the new single from the man who holds down the bottom end of Chic’s sound.  And it’s so good.  Fusing hard hitting four on the floor beats held together with a big reverbed clap, with a house piano, and bouncy bass lines this track is so catchy! The vocals are in the falsetto …

Single Review: “12 Inches Of Love” – Alice Offley

Single Review: “Shadow” – Marie Keane

Well, the Latin percussion with claps that ring takes you from Marie’s native Ireland to the streets of Brazil with the …
