This is beautifully crafted 80s pop that I reckon Stock Aitken Waterman would be proud of.. I’m a fan for sure that’s my era! Airinna sent me this track and… I’m in love. This song is so catchy, great vocals great four on the floor beat which gets your foot tapping. I like the synth …
Blog interview: Claudia Balla
Congratulations on the release of “Why (Don’t You?) how does it feel? Thank you very much. I am glad the track is finally out. What’s the story behind the song? The main idea is that the narrator addresses her/his nemesis, whose identity is not reveled throughout the song, and pleads a ceasefire so that she/he …

Single Review: “Shade Of Green” – Lizzie Esau
Lizzie Esau returns with a song that explores her using spoken word at the beginning of the track… There are so many things I like about this song it sounds like everyone’s walking into a rehearsal or live stage and then sitting down to get this song going..

Pārvāti – Song Of The Year (A History Of Cool) Don’t let the title fool you. This is not what you think. No the writer doesn’t have an inflated ego. First of all, let’s talk about the music, it’s a simple song – nice use of synths, and plods along nicely. The lyrics are the …
Single Review: “Lost In Translation” – Coupedekat
This was a fun listen! I like the use of different vocal samples at the beginning, and the lyric “I get my words off the menu, I wanna go a la carte did I say something to offend you come round and be my Bonaparte” made me sit up and listen… It’s a song that’s …
Single Review: “Sirens” – Sunflower Thieves
Leeds based duo Sunflower Thieves make a welcome return with their single “Sirens”. I love the vocals on this and the production is outstanding nothing overpowering the overall song. This is typical of Amy and Lily’s musical style, and I’m here for it.. There’s a synth part that accompanies the chorus that I need to …
