Picture: Brendan Holmes You are a multifaceted producer and sound engineer, how did it all begin for you? Well, I played in bands and wrote songs as a kid but at some point decided that I might be better suited for the studio side of making music and so I went to Berklee College of …
’s funny when I went to tag Righteous Reck here, my first thought was that this would be up @ruinzason and his brother @jflamesondabeat ‘s street, turns out they’re connected on social media already. This track has layers, the pitched up vocals and piano give it that love song vibe, but it’s not strictly a love song, it could …
Congratulations on the release of “I Don’t Talk” how does it feel? Thank you so much. It feels really great having a project out as it is, let alone one that’s a collaboration with such amazing talents Blue Lab Beats. It’s a four track EP, what’s your favourite track? When I listen to the project, …
Congratulations on the release of “Nasty (En)amor” how does it feel? Thank you! This is one of my most creative tracks I have made so it’s exciting to see it being received well What’s the story behind the song? This one’s a bit of a rollercoaster init? It starts off pretty sultry – I wanted …

The Music Of Sound X Minimums – First Light This has such a cinematic feel to it, and I wouldn’t expect any less from Minimums having played and reviewed their work before. This is like an overture to the album and it’s an inspired choice both in choice of remixer and the sequence in which …
Project Blackbird are back with a track that’s a slick bit of production! You have Ming’s vocals switching between melody and spoken word effortlessly. Given the fact that the lyrics are in poetic form that’s probably not an accident. I like the layers to the vocals, where there’s a deeper voice emphasising on certain words …
This exploded out of my AirPods with such energy I had to write something about it. The slick beat is the stage on which Jayahadream and Gardna choose to lay down their rapid fire bars, I love the old school garage vibe on this with glitching synths, they don’t shout it’s pretty chilled and makes …
Today is the Mercury Music Awards and they are being hosted at @abbeyroadstudios @freshonthenet asked a question on his fabulous #nowplaying show on @bbc6music – what album in the past got nominated but never won? Naturally there are so many, but one I didn’t realise was nominated when looking for my favourite was Take That’s …
Well! This combines jazz, hip hop, neo soul, a touch of Motown and some gospel into this lovely track! There’s a flute to kick off proceedings over a bass that I’m suspecting is played live on the recording – it’s got some depth to it. Add to that a Rhodes piano and an upright piano, …
