Track Of The Day: “Fastlove” – George Michael

On 4th May 1996 this song was George Michael’s 7th UK no. 1 starting a three week run at the top of the chart and it was the second of six tracks taken from his Older album. First of all I can’t believe it’s 30 years since this track went to No.1. It’s wild to …

Track Of The Day: “The Emergence” – Jon Onabowu

Wow. From the intro to the end, what we have here is an instrumental track that fuses futuristic jazz sensibilities with leanings towards chords you can only have learned in church.

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 – “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 …

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 …
