This has such a nice warmth around the production, it feels like it has been recorded using analogue. This is pure soul transporting you back to the early 70s with that vocal. With every listen I suspect that a mellotron was involved for that flute sound that’s being played. If you don’t know what that …

Here’s another batch of tracks from the Fresh Faves thisweek. BARELO, ANTREX & SUSIE LEDGE – Rewind Sekora · Rewind I’m not entirely sure who BARELO, ANTREX and SUSIE LEDGE are as any info leads me back to the Sekora label. They do have an interesting site though with audio packs for serum which could …
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 …
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 …

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 – …
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 …
To close out a fabulous top ten, we have a track that starts off all mysterious, and flips the script on wanting to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city to find comfort in isolation – this song is all about escaping to civilisation! I like that, it’s like coming out of a …
Oh I cheered when <strong>Sunflower Thieves</strong> showed up in the inbox last week….They are back! Already taken is acoustic guitar led with the addition of an analog drum pattern passed through a filter – all this puts the vocals at the front, and the lyrics simply ask how do you let go of something that’s …
Salt Lake City you say? Well this is new territory for us! This is a song that calls upon analogue synths and pitch bends giving it a real 80s feel, the beat is off kilter and the sounds are ethereal – guitars both acoustic and electric provide a great backdrop on this – what I …
