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 – “Days We Left Behind” – Paul McCartney

This song is the first release from Paul McCartney’s new album “The Boys From Dungeon Lane” and it follows Paul’s ability to weave a story into a song. To me this is almost the lyrical sequel to the ever beautiful “In My Life”, given that it revisits Paul’s childhood. There are references to war – …

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 …

Fresh Faves: Batch 600

AMITY – City Of Stars Amity · City of Stars We kick off the faves with an artist I’ve known for a while, this is their first time on the faves and I’m really excited for them. I actually met AMITY last year at Boogaloo Radio when I was going there for an interview, and …

Single Review: “Blame It On Blue” – Riley Way

@riley.wayy is my one to watch for many reasons. First and foremost she’s a singer songwriter who is able to pack a punch with her songs, and this is illustrated beautifully in this song, it’s an acoustic led track with all the right ingredients – a catchy melody, a middle 8 and an outro that will …

Track Of The Day: “Screwball Scramble” – Dictator

It’s been a minute since I reviewed Dictator, so I was happy to see this track on my releases for the week. This track starts off with their usual energy, it chugs along with a great intro with a guitar, and vocals before going full octane! What caught my attention is the driving beat, it’s …
