Nice little drum fill to begin this! The pulsing synth bass is a real earworm. I love it. But then it’s joined by a conventional bass which makes me think this is not a bass line as such, but an analogue synth that’s been put through an arpeggiator to give it that feel. Whatever it …
The Clockworks are back with a heavy hitting alt rock track, my favourite on their new album so far. Big guitars! Big drums! Big vocals! This song is about the world we live in now, I’m assuming that it’s alluding to the cost of living crisis, because there’s references to money, and lack of it …
Hello Mattanja how are you? I am doing well. Very busy at the moment moving house. Congratulations on the release of “Desire” how does it feel? It feels great to have come to the point of releasing it into the world. It has been a challenge to be honest. What’s your favourite track from it? I …
Clockworks! How are you doing? Good thanks, looking forward to the album release. It’s been all guns blazing for a while so looking to get the album out. Congratulations on the release of “Exit Strategy” how does it feel? It’s fulfilling. We worked for a long time on this, and we’ve had to learn a …

Desire, is inspired by a year-long adventure through the states in a beat-up 40-year-old RV she transformed into a tiny house with an on-board …
This track starts off with a beautiful piano part, heavy on the left hand to compensate for the bass part, then Cara’s voice comes in – she brings a real soulful touch to this and it becomes more evident with the drums that come in. The drums are well crafted, giving a little stutter when …
Listening to this brings up a lot of questions. Is Soliheen a Star Trek fan? Where did he get that fat snare from? Asking for a friend of course.. this track is making my Sunday morning walk to church that little bit more calmer even though it’s cold.. but it brings warmth to the soul. …
This song reminds me very much of a psychedelic track… there’s something almost Pink Floyd.. The lyrics are full of questions: “Do you ever let your guard down? Let someone come into your life? Do you fall asleep easier? Or are you restless at night?” It’s like your inner voice interrogating you at 3am in …
