Tell us briefly about your journey in music until now. Music has been a lifelong journey. As a young child I was drawn to all things musical. There was always music playing in the house (my dad loved big band music) and when I was introduced to the recorder and the piano, I could instinctively …
Single Review: “Perfect Piece Of Person I’m Made For” – Daphnie
This is a great track straight off the bat, I love the way it begins with the synth sounds and then goes straight into a bit of indie pop effortlessly. This happens at around 1:09 when there’s a drum roll into the next part of the song, it works so well! The guitars on this …
Single Review: “Dorothea Tanning” – Boudicca’s Bass Service
The title intrigued me for this one – I had to look Dorothea up. She was an artist in multiple mediums whose early influences was surrealism. It’s a very interesting Wikipedia entry, she lived until the age of 101! This track is trippy and psychedelic, the vocals are husky and almost whispered, the guitars sound …
Single Review: “You Lost Out” – The Music Of Sound
This song is just gorgeous. With a line up change and the addition of Sherry Sahayaraj, The Music Of Sound keep their melodic flavours going but with a slight spice in flavour. Let’s talk about the instruments first. It’s a simple arrangement, bass keeping the groove along with the drums with a slight variation in …
Single Review: “High Horse (Be Gone)” – Rikke
This track has an off kilter beat and that’s what caught my attention initially! The drum intro, then a funny little bass run coupled up with a muted guitar played an octave up gives you a modern jazz feel with a little bit of pop in there too. This is a slick bit of production …
Single Review: “Dynasty” – Jenna Pemkowski
What struck me about this track is how quickly it changed within its 3:32 length. It starts off with a fast paced kick drum giving me the impression that it was going to be a bit of a rock track. But then it settles into a steady rhythm based around a snare, kick and high …

Single Review: “World Happy” – Michelle Ward
Michelle Ward is back with a new single “World Happy” – I played it on my show and I’m absolutely in love with it. It’s an indie pop tune heavy on the pop elements – catchy melody that brings sunshine – lyrics that get to the point – the world needs more happiness.First verse: God’s …
Single Review: “Money” – Ahmala
Well! This combines jazz, hip hop, neo soul, a touch of Motown and some gospel into this lovely track! There’s a flute to kick off proceedings over a bass that I’m suspecting is played live on the recording – it’s got some depth to it. Add to that a Rhodes piano and an upright piano, …
