Another electric piano laden track! I’m blessed. While the chords and melody are very pretty this hides within it the pain of families breaking up: My father’s scars were etched upon his skin,By his parents’ fighting and the state it left him in,They had little choice,But the world has spun around,So I stand and I …
Gorstey Lea AKA are back and have gone through a bit of a change, it’s quite funny really because just as I was about to embark on the review of this as if by magic I got an email from them requesting airplay – complete with bio and everything! What I like about this is …
Another weather related track in the faves? Is this a theme? You never know. This one is a Wurlitzer led track, very dreamy. It’s got a psychedelic feel to it especially with the whispery vocals. Add to that the way driven given guitars, the big drums this transports you back to the 70s! It feels …
PSA: I’ve said this so many times and I will never stop saying it. When @kwamekwaten sends you an artist you listen. And he always hits the spot. ALWAYS. This then, is no different, this is the new single from Izzy Withers, and she’s a natural born storyteller with her lyrics. “I tried to solve it all,Stepped …
Marina Florance will always have a special place in my heart, as this year we achieved something that was a bucket list moment for me. BBC Radio 6 Music airplay courtesy of Mary-Anne Hobbs, and BBC Introducing Mixtape courtesy Tom Robinson. She’s revisited the spoken word this time reading the book that she’s just published …
Congratulations on the release of “Nasty (En)amor” how does it feel? Thank you! This is one of my most creative tracks I have made so it’s exciting to see it being received well What’s the story behind the song? This one’s a bit of a rollercoaster init? It starts off pretty sultry – I wanted …
Slic Vic and TravizWilde have come together on a jazz soul spiced tune and it’s… beautiful. The track starts off with a drum beat with a guitar playing the four chords around which the track is built. The song has elements of 90s R&B in the harmonies, which are beautifully layered – you can almost …
The Music Of Sound X Minimums – First Light This has such a cinematic feel to it, and I wouldn’t expect any less from Minimums having played and reviewed their work before. This is like an overture to the album and it’s an inspired choice both in choice of remixer and the sequence in which …
Garlen Lo is back with his brand of humour and self deprecating lyrics in this song that he wrote at the age of 17. One thing I wanted to point out is that he’s really good at this homemade kind of sound – acoustic guitar recorded to tape and mixed so that you get the …
Project Blackbird are back with a track that’s a slick bit of production! You have Ming’s vocals switching between melody and spoken word effortlessly. Given the fact that the lyrics are in poetic form that’s probably not an accident. I like the layers to the vocals, where there’s a deeper voice emphasising on certain words …
