In celebration of my friend Tom Robinson’s birthday I thought I’d review a song that was his first big hit – 2468 Motorway. Every time I hear it I usually have my headphones on and as is customary I turn it all the way up to 11 and play air guitar with TRB’s legendary maybe …
This track is from Alan Dreezer’s album Nothing Changes If Nothing Changes which came out on 2nd June 2026.. This track takes soulful elements and adds electronica, it’s underpinned by a piano holding down the chords over an 808 kick with atmospheric sounds giving it a bit of a journey to it. This song is …
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. With every listen I suspect that a mellotron was involved for that flute sound that’s being played. If you don’t know what that …

First up – this track is way too catchy – if you’re not disciplined enough to hold it down and keep it calm in public then I suggest you don’t play this. I’m serious. From the beginning you have a melody that hooks you, that’s sung by Colenso Abafana Benkokhelo and it’s pure fire, add …
From the moment this started it gave me goosebumps because the long drawn notes vibrate within you. The melody sounds medieval, even though it’s composed on a reed organ. Growing up I played a variety of keyboards but never a reed one. The tones coming out of this, it just takes you to another time …
Sharon Katta drops a track that combines electronica with a bit of spoken word and he does it in such a way that your attention is held for the whole time it’s playing. His vocals are layered on this with harmonies and he uses them as a pad melding in with the synths… my favourite …
