Single Review: “Shadow” – Marie Keane
Marie Keane – “Shadow” WHOAH. The funk is strong with this one. This is Marie Keane’s lead single from her upcoming album “MNÁ”. And you know what? It’s INCENDIO. That’s fire in Portuguese. Why? Well, the Latin percussion with claps that ring takes you from Marie’s native Ireland to the streets of Brazil with the …
Single Review: “All I Need” – Kate Bond
This song comes forth with a swag from the outset, the bassline, drums, guitar and keyboards, bring a real soulful texture to this….. Then Kate comes in low key and understated until she hits the chorus at 0:47 raising the volume and the temperature! She brings a soulful playfulness to this track that makes me …
Single Review: “Know Me” – Days Of Rome
The thing I like about this song is its quirkiness, the intro makes you think it’s a soulful slow jam, but when the beat drops, it’s anything but. What do I mean? Well at around 0:10 a trumpet comes in, and then we get treated to a scratch, straight into the drums, bass, and guitar …
Album Review: “Battle Lines” – Cable Street Collective
It’s been a strange kind of day. I have watched the first two episodes of the new Obi Wan tv series, Stranger Things season 4 just dropped… And Cable Street Collective sent me their album to review. I’m blessed right now and it’s not even 9am yet. So what did they send me? Well, it’s …
Single Review: “New Life” – The Happy Somethings
Check Out “New Life” here on The Happy Somethings Bandcamp My favourite wibbly wobbly timey wimey pop trio are back…. And as always they bring the goods and they bring it well! The melody is very much in keeping with their retro sound, but they add some interesting twists from the future too. “Welcome to …

Single Review: “Fly” – Artesan
Well let me start this by saying this is a well written song. This starts off with a bit of finger picking on an acoustic guitar, a simple enough start and then vocals, bass and drums come in. It’s very steady, no little tricks to deflect away from the main body of the song… but …
Single Review: “Gaze” – Alpha Twin
Well! This exploded out of my main speakers nicely! The guitar riff at the beginning comes in distorted and put through an EQ to make it sound like it’s coming out of a little radio. At 0:10 the bass comes in with kick and hi hat playing around two notes… Then… BOOM! 0:19 the whole …
