Fresh Faves: Batch 612

AROUND ABOUT DUSK- without you Around About Dusk · Without You This has such a World War II era jazz feel to it, none of the gloss that came later on, but the kind you’d expect in the background of a period drama. This could be playing in the background on a grainy gramophone, at …

Fresh Faves: Batch 610

AZU YUCHE – Weak Azu Yeché · Weak Azu Yeché opens the faves this week with something a little special.. This has the classic soul around it, I’d even go as far as to say this has neo soul vibes – it reminds me of D’Angelo with those guitar licks! Clean tone! Add to that …

Single Review: “Some Birds Don’t Fly” – Gotts Street Park

This has such a nice warmth around the production, it feels like it has been recorded using analogue. This is pure soul transporting you back to the early 70s with that vocal.
