This song is pure genius! From top to bottom, the intro gives us chugging guitars, promising indie rock goodness and boy do they deliver… There are sections of this song that give me pure joy, the intro like I mentioned, and also the fact the drummer gets given their moment to shine from 2:12 with …
Having been a fan of Brave James since the release of their fantastic track “Spaceships”, it came as no surprise that collaboration with one of my favourite production teams was definitely going to be special. This is a slower paced track, starting off with percussion and marimbas and it’s gorgeous. The track as a whole …
First of all, I’d like to say I’m very proud of Lexie Caroll, she’s achieved a WHOLE lot over the last year – one of which is getting her music featured on Love Island. This is her newest single and, as usual, it’s stunning. The lyrics draw you in immediately. “I don’t know what happened …
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 …
Laurie Wright is back with a track with strong vocals, guitars, drums and…. Harmonica! This song comes roaring out of the gates with attitude, and it’s a cracker. I really like Laurie’s vocals on this, it sounds like he’s having a blast recording it, but this belies the dark feeling behind the lyrics, there’s a …
There are so many things that I like about this song, first of all it’s in 3/4 time. That will always be welcome around here. Secondly, the pizzicato strings, you don’t usually hear that in music nowadays unless it’s arpeggiated a la Rodney Jerkins 90s productions, so it’s good to hear that. Thirdly, Blossom’s voice …
Lizzie is back! Catchy guitar riffs, half rapped half sung lyrics with the usual fire…. Lizzie was one of my predictions for big things in 2022, and I’m glad she’s not lost any of that passion in her music since I first heard her with “Bitter Weather”. So, what’s this? Well this song is a …
From an EP of three really strong songs, it was hard to choose which one to pick for my track of the day. But I decided to go with this one, because I love the way it just builds…. The drums start this number off, the kick is low in pitch, but I get the …
