Since I’ve never seen Snatch a lot of the references here are probably going over my head. However, this was one of the tracks that caught my ear in the full inbox. I love the way that the vocals are delivered in a Danny Dyer style, although I think you need to be sucking on …
I like the synths on this one, especially the arpeggiated intro and crunchy lead. The vocals are spoken / sung, the main vocals go up and down on the scale. I like the way it switches from a major to minor key by singing one semitone down on one note. This is definitely worth a …
The intro is what draws you in on this one, it’s very big, synth-wise, promises epic things, and boy does it it deliver… I love the vocals on this, as well as the drums, they are fluid and really stand out amongst the overall track. When I first heard this I knew it would be …
I have heard this song so many times now, I think it’s part of my soundtrack of 2023. It’s such a simple song, Prima Hera’s vocals are gorgeous on this. She has a touch of reverb on her vocals, and she’s able to harmonise comfortably going from a major to minor harmony with the other …
This track caught my ear because of the lush string arrangement and also Emma’s strong vocal on top. She sits right in the mix. I love the lyrics: “I am like a tree without its leaves I am like a river without its water And nothing will ever be the same…” The beat is four …
As today is supposed to be Blue Monday I thought I’d revisit an 80s classic. This song has all the synthesiser goodness incorporated with early samples. The version I’ve picked out is the original 1983 mix, which clocks in at 7:30 – this would have set the dance floors alight back in the day, because …
The thing that caught my ear the most about this song was the distorted bass, The song chugs along at a fair pace, starting off with analogue drums, I’m getting the feeling that this might be a hybrid of analogue and acoustic, but whatever it is, it’s not unpleasant to the ear for sure. Lyrically …
Greysha is back! This is one of the tracks from her new EP “Fresh Out The Feeling”, and being familiar with her sound I know she wasn’t going to bring anything short of excellence. This track is moody, which is typical of her sound, electronic drums, with guitars in minor chords, vocals swirling around and …
This is quite a track! It opens with bird song, and breathing, and then the pulsing synth bass line, when I close my eyes I don’t see myself walking through the forest I see myself gliding through tall trees as I listen to this… the vocals are wordless it’s lahs and nahs, and it just …
I think this is the perfect breakup song! A take on the classic dear John letter maybe? “Thinking of a reason we should stay together 12 months on, I’ve got nothing John.” This is a brutal lyric, wrapped up in a really up tempo indie pop song, the chorus is infectious.. Favourite part of this …
