The Extraordinary Journey of Jason Miles A Musical Biography Jason Miles has been behind some iconic recordings. He is in the process of releasing his book, and it promises to be as iconic as some of the musicians he has worked with. I was privileged to see a copy a few weeks back and I …
The way this song starts interested me, the arpeggiated guitars in triplets following the drums. It’s a rich track and got me head nodding, it’s moody as the title suggests but don’t be fooled, because Jacob’s vocals are so strong, nothing deadpan about it, and made me want to listen to him again, with that …
This song whisks me back in time with the use of kitsch organ noises especially, with the radio tuning noise at the beginning, and there’s a violin being played. I like storytelling songs in the lyrics, and a good example of this is the fact that this song is about Wendy, who was a writer …
What I like about this song is how it runs at a fair pace; the drums are cinematic, the kick is an 808, but the rest are percussive. The vocals are well produced, the harmonies are bang on. The vocals remind me of someone, but I just can’t quite place my finger on it — …
This is a cool acoustic number with synths getting all atmospheric for the background, what caught my ear was the bass sound… Having reviewed a band recently that showed me the versatility of the cello, I’m getting the feeling that’s not a bass…. Why do I think this? Well, Ceiltidh Mac is a cello player, …
This song is acoustic guitar led, very much a lullaby, but written in a letter form… Amelia Coburn’s vocals are very soft and breathy, and that’s what catches my ear straight away. I closed my eyes and just listened, and she’s got a voice that could calm a soul. I’m no ukulele aficionado by any …
I was speaking to Neil March, fellow Fresh On The Net moderator about this band over lunch this weekend and he had only positive things to say about them…. They have played his Vanishing Point gig, and he said they were amazing. This is their new single, and it’s stunning. The overall production is stunning, …
Congratulations on the release of “Why (Don’t You?) how does it feel? Thank you very much. I am glad the track is finally out. What’s the story behind the song? The main idea is that the narrator addresses her/his nemesis, whose identity is not reveled throughout the song, and pleads a ceasefire so that she/he …
Congratulations on the release of “To The Ends of The Earth” how does it feel? Thanks! It feels great to be finished with it for sure. We started tracking drums in April 2021. We were mostly finished with recording by September, but we made a couple last minute revisions/additions in December. It was definitely …
Hello Maya, how are you? Hey, I’m great thanks. I’m so excited that my debut single is finally out! Congratulations on the release of “Still The Same”, how does it feel? Thank you so much! It’s the best feeling. I’ve been working on this for such a long time, so to be able to …
