Duski seem to be a band who metamorphasise into different forms musically…. According to their site: It began as a chordless trio in darkest Wales comprising of sax, double bass and drums, then guitar and piano appeared. Jazz styles disappeared and heavy jams with collective improvising took its place. The piano morphed into different synthesisers …
Rhodes MK8 launch – Ronnie Scott’s. My old friend Liam Narrie was the one that sent me a message about this event, and when I heard Dan Goldman was hosting it… I had to be there. Dan is a killer keyboard player, more specifically Rhodes, and it was just a joy to hear him play. …

Congratulations on the release of “Motherland Journey” how does it feel? Honestly it feels like a dream come true to have the legendary Fela Kuti featuring on this track! We would’ve never expected to ever have the chance to use his acappella but his publishers and Nigerian and European teams made it happen. …
Cable Street Collective – The Wolf The Collective are back! Bringing with them a song that’s a full BBQ plate of food with its solid flavours…. You can almost smell that party food in the summer heat! The song grooves on nicely with some beautiful guitar licks, Aaron knows I’m a fan of his from …
