Track Of The Day: Natural Wonders Every Child Should Know – Pet Shop Boys

updated on Leave a Comment on Track Of The Day: Natural Wonders Every Child Should Know – Pet Shop Boys

Pet Shop Boys released an album which is pretty much a biography of Alan Turing, the computing genius that helped develop the code and the machine BOMBE to crack Germany’s ENIGMA during World War II. The whole album is an autobiography first performed in 2014 but a new version has been recorded for release this …

Track Of The Day: Off The Tracks – Freya Beer

updated on Leave a Comment on Track Of The Day: Off The Tracks – Freya Beer

Freya Beer dropped a new single that’s epic in story and epic in music. It references James Dean and driving fast – this could be applied in so many different ways, it could be a friend or a relative that’s taken a path that could destroy them, and Freya’s observing this from the passenger seat, …

Single Review: “It Keeps You Runnin'” – Doobie Brothers

updated on

In honour of the epic news that The Doobie Brothers and Michael McDonald are putting out a new album after 40 years I thought I’d revisit this classic track from 1976. What do I like about this song? Well. EVERYTHING! The first time I ever heard it was when I watched Forrest Gump. It was …

Single Review: “Borealis” – Artem Grebenschikov 

updated on

This is such a gentle track, all built around synths. The thing that caught my ear was the way that the chords started, keeping tempo and then all the elements being added in.

Congratulations on the release of “No Blame” how does it feel?  It feels quite surreal actually. I’m not sure it’s fully landed with me that it’s materialised. Less than a year ago it was just a thought in my head, and now it’s out there.  What’s the story behind the song?  The song is about …
