Well, this is quite a mixture! This combines spoken word, with indie rock sensibilities but then you’ve got a spoken word element too and a little bit of hip hop too. This is a track that has an infectious hook, and it caught my attention immediately, it’s almost like a self help tape wrapped up …
In honour of Debbie Harry’s 80th birthday, I thought I’d pull one of my favourite tracks from my childhood. This was always on the radio, and still remains a classic in my ears. I only discovered recently through listening to the album version that there was an electronic drum track at the beginning it sounds …
This is a jazzy number that’s got me relaxed on a very packed train to work! The piano starts off the proceedings in the lower register, and then it’s joined by Nicoya’s gorgeous voice, she brings so much soul to this. The adlibs before she hits the verse tell you that she’s about to do …

This is an acoustic number, in 3/4 with triplets being played on toms… it draws you in so quickly! The thing that caught my ear was the falsetto that dominates the song – it’s on a slow burn, but then you realise the full impact of the song. The bit that got me was at …
Hello Sinead, how are you? I’m great- I’ve just done a headline show in Leeds & it was such a beautiful night of connectedness. I feel like the new EP is really resonating with audiences! Congratulations on the release of Stand. How does it feel? Thanks. It feels right- like a necessary step. Stand is a …
It’s been 30 years since @takethat released their third album “Nobody Else” and it shows how far things have come. In that time, Robbie Williams left, the band split up some time after that, all had successful solo careers and even reunited – something no one ever saw coming – first without Robbie and then …
In honour of Tom Robinson’s birthday I thought I’d pick out my favourite track of his to review. I first heard this track when I saw him perform live at Blackheath Halls in January 2024, he used it to close out his set that night, and it was just one of those songs that stays …
Hello Fini how are you? I’m great, thanks! Congratulations on the release of “Last Night Of The World” how does it feel? It feels really good- it was a long time coming (from conception to realisation) and it straddles the birth of my daughter, so I am relieved & also proud to have wrapped it …
NX Panther is back with a track that combines arpeggiated synths with a rapid fire beat. It sounds epic! With NX Panther’s hard hitting bars, she seems at home with this, enunciating every word, at the same time flowing over a half time beat. Her flow is percussive, hitting the beat flawlessly. In her lyrics …
