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 …
It starts off with a big snare snare sitting front and centre, and with a bass line playing a riff that’s kind of hypnotic, it’s on two strings at the same time. Cherry’s vocals come in at 0:41 really delicate but hold on to your seat because she switches it up with some distortion for …
I like the ethereal reverb vocal intro to this, it makes a very pleasant surprise when the actual lead kicks in a little bit later. The drums are hard hitting, I like the fact it’s not a conventional snare, it has a bit of an industrial thud to it, and it sits well with everything …
Alice Offley is back with a funky disco track that’s got that summer energy, as the days are getting longer and sunnier this is the tonic that we need. The guitar riff is reminiscent of 80s pop, but Alice brings the bass action making it just as funky – this being her instrument it’s no …
Joe Adhemar has released a new album. Let’s break it down shall we? “The Synesthete” available on Bandcamp Found Out This is a great track to kick off the album with, very bluesy, I like the way vocals have a slight delay to it, the main guitar riff has chromatic notes in there, and …
This is a fantastic piece of electronica from South East London based musician and producer I’M. Lots of of warped basslines mixed in with a beat that you can’t help but move your feet to. The pitched down vocal sample of “Watch The Sunrise” is simple, but very effective, one of the things that I …
A Day Out with Memorial Device by SkinnyBoy Tunes I like it when songs reference other acts in their titles or lyrics. SkinnyBoy Tunes becomes a foley artist with this one, using the sounds of a train station and even recruits a Scot Rail announcer to speak over the top of some lovely chords and …
