Well now! According to my calculations, this act made the faves waaaaaaaaaay back in 2014. So we’re going old school! Back then FOTN founder Tom Robinson reviewed them. 11 years ago! They’ve even got his review in their bio. Wow. This starts off with a Middle Eastern influenced violin melody, and then the percussion drops …
Lord Gabrielle Sey can sing! This starts off with an acoustic guitar then Gabrielle’s vocals enter the chat rich and warm, it leaves you wrapped up in a warm winter coat watching the sun set over Greenwich Park while drinking the sweetest creamiest hot chocolate. The melody soars through and Gabrielle switches gears in the …
I was at the point today where I thought no one was going to release any music on the 1st September – a rarity as there’s always something new to come out even on Christmas Day – I kid you not! Anyway, this is a new track from Teen Creeps, packed full of offbeats, sweet …
his one caught my ear because of the 60s psychedelic vibe, along with the jazzy feel. Not only that but the timing as to when it came to me made me smile. This is a collaboration with the @thersc ‘s production of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”, and thirty years ago this month I was actually in a …
This is a track that I really enjoyed when it dropped on my inbox this morning. I like the darkness of the chord progression and tempo. The track just prowls, the drums provide the rhythm at half time but that also allows for triplets which gives the whole track space to groove. There are synth …
I have been a fan of Nick Mulvey’s since hearing his song “Nitrous”, coupled with “Cucurucu” and “We Remain” this is an artist I have a lot of respect for. This is a track from his new album “Dark Harvest”, and it follows his path of acoustic folk. Starting off you hear some great guitar …
When I first heard this track my first question was…. WHO’S GOING TO PAY £15 FOR A KEBAB???? Pre covid there used to a kebab shop near my house that I used to treat myself to every so often, you’d get a large portion inside a pitta with your choice of toppings for less than …
To close the faves this week, we have a track from Yodashe, this track starts off with glitched synths then drums are added – just rim shot and kick to begin with as well as a harsh clap. The vocals come in high and strong – another song that’s bordering on the theatrical, because there …
Now this is an interesting one, very jazzy, and sophisticated. I love jazzy and sophisticated. In a listening post that sat comfortably among folk songs, hip hop and a full blown concerto this just testifies to the taste of the team and the diversity of what comes through. It makes it hard to choose your …
First of all, let’s get this out of the way. Hiromi is a badass on the piano. No. Let me say it louder for those that didn’t hear me in the back. Hiromi is a badass on the piano. I SAID WHAT I SAID! This track starts off with a fun synth lead, it’s an …
