Pixelation by Kiffie Pixelation This track is characteristic of Kiffie’s sound, very electronic, sparse synth sounds…. But there’s one little change, this track is not in 4/4. At least not all the way through. Don’t get too confused, it’s a bit of polyrhythmic play that funnily enough I was discussing with a colleague of mine …
Single Review: “Summertime Song” – Jess Meyer
This song does what it says on the tin. It truly is a summertime song! Let’s break it down. The acoustic guitar bounce as an off set to the four on the floor beat makes you want to be at a festival in the heat or the rain dancing arms akimbo drunk on the joys …
Single Review: “Shadow” – Marie Keane
Marie Keane – “Shadow” WHOAH. The funk is strong with this one. This is Marie Keane’s lead single from her upcoming album “MNÁ”. And you know what? It’s INCENDIO. That’s fire in Portuguese. Why? Well, the Latin percussion with claps that ring takes you from Marie’s native Ireland to the streets of Brazil with the …
Single Review: “Know Me” – Days Of Rome
The thing I like about this song is its quirkiness, the intro makes you think it’s a soulful slow jam, but when the beat drops, it’s anything but. What do I mean? Well at around 0:10 a trumpet comes in, and then we get treated to a scratch, straight into the drums, bass, and guitar …

Single Review: “Under The Lights” – Bad Money
This new single from one of my favourite acts of the last couple of years is quite frankly refreshing. It’s in the key of A Flat, which is an uplifting key anyway when you hear it, and probably not my choice of key to write in, but then it’s not my song! The vocals really …
Blog interview: SOCKiTTOME
Hello Matt, how are you? Great Del, thanks so much for having me! Congratulations on the release of “get on up”, how does it feel? I always feel a bit exposed when I release a song that I’m really passionate about and have poured my heart into. On the other hand though, …
