Fresh Faves: Batch 604

I wrote the faves reviews for fresh on the net this week so I thought I’d publish them here. BUTTER FUNK FAMILY – Love Power Printz Board · Love Power (feat. Nadav Peled) To kick off this week’s faves we have a psychedelic funk track that takes us all the way back to the early …

Track Of The Day: “Sunset And Memories” – Blue Lab Beats X Kaidi Akinnibi

First up – this track is way too catchy – if you’re not disciplined enough to hold it down and keep it calm in public then I suggest you don’t play this. I’m serious. From the beginning you have a melody that hooks you, that’s sung by Colenso Abafana Benkokhelo and it’s pure fire, add …

Track Of The Day: “Authority” – Sharon Katta

Sharon Katta drops a track that combines electronica with a bit of spoken word and he does it in such a way that your attention is held for the whole time it’s playing. His vocals are layered on this with harmonies and he uses them as a pad melding in with the synths… my favourite …

Track Of The Day: “Grippy Socks Jail” – Court Lee

This is trippy. I like trippy.  This song is not what you probably think it’s about, but if you think it’s about a hospital stay then you’re probably right. This song is very short coming in at 1:06 but within that 1 minute and six seconds we are taught about what happens in a hospital …

Track Of The Day – “Can We Make It Real?” – Manny Norte X Ayanna

This is a new one from Manny Norte and Ayanna, and it slaps. This is based around an afrobeat groove, and it’s smooth, you can tell they cooked it up for the summer because it gets you dancing immedately even if your’e not in the mood. What caught my attention was the Neo soul chord …

Track Of The Day: “Crazy” – Gnarls Barkley

It’s strange to think that it’s 20 years since this came out. About a year later, I had it as my ringtone, but we’ll come back to that shortly. Gnarles Barkley was a pairing between Danger Mouse and CeeLo Green, and it was fabulous they actually went to number one with this track for 9 …

Single Review: Chinwe – Lately

Chinwe is back, and I’m so glad! This is a track that exudes power from the moment it starts. It’s atmospheric, the drums are chest pounding with two hits on the snare and off tempo flow.  There’s a warble to the sound too, which is so pleasing to the ear, the bass is deep and …

Single Review: “The Call” – CHIMA ANYA

Right we need to put some respect on this name. This is <strong>Chima Anya</strong> – hold on let me correct myself DOCTOR Chima Anya’s return to the fresh faves, and he’s done a LOT. I mean, he’s been on Britain’s Got Talent (Yes, yes I yelled at my tv). I’ve interviewed him in the past …
