Hello Kim, how are you? I am feeling pretty great this summer. Congratulations on the release of “Influencers.” How does it feel? Thankful that it is released. I had forgotten how much work it was to put together an entire album. It’s a 12-track project, featuring collaborators from around the world. What was the story …
Nitin Sawhney and Guy Garvey have collaborated on a song ahead of the release of an album in October. There is so much to love about this song. First of all, it starts off with a multilayered a cappella. The main vocal does some really lovely runs, but It’s the harmony that caught me off …
Hello Remi, how are you? I’m doing good, thanks…just got back in from a walk in the glorious sunshine of the day. Congratulations on the release of “Moonlight Lady” how does it feel? Thank you. It feels cool. As an artist I think anytime you’re lucky enough to release something that you’re passionate about and …
Alice is back with a track that could burn up the dance floor easily! It’s got a groove for days based around a four on the floor beat, punctuated with timbales – brining in elements of latin rhythms, the basis of which disco in New York was built on in the early 70s. This song …
Hello Sarah, how are you? I’m good thanks 🙂 Congratulations on the release of “Urban Melancholia”, how does it feel? It feels unreal, I’ve been working on this project for over a year and I would have never imagined it being so well received. It’s your second compilation since “Burning London”, what inspired this one? …
BRAVE JAMES is back with a new track featuring a singer songwriter that I love and respect, Oli Rockberger. And they deliver! Whereas the last single was a collaboration with with Blue Lab Beats and had a more soulful hip hop vibe this is folktronica at its best, catchy ethereal melodies with dreamy synths, the …
This is a cracker of a track, the low register vocal reminds me a little bit of Damon Albarn that disinterested tone, but don’t let that fool you because it’s a cracker of a song with lyrics that are pure one liners. The disinterested vibe is intentional if you listen to the lyrics that’s all …
This tune… Morena comes out all cylinders firing with a fine vocal over drums made up 808 sounds, and analogue synth parts. This is the kind of tune you can easily get down to. Morena delivers a playful vocal, which sits right on top of the instrumental, and you can tell she had fun while …
This song comes with such a gentle Afro beat flavour that took me back to the mother land. Sharyn dropped a gospel flavour that fuses beautiful harmonies with a beat that has percussion doing most of the work, but with the occasional 808 dropping a kick here and there. But this is not about the …
Mark Hill is back after a hiatus. And he brought a banger! Vocals by Esco Williams – what we have here is a track that starts off on a slow build. This could really work well with a full band…. Piano laying down the chords with the strings, Esco brings a flavour of gospel, soul …
