Track Of The Day: Danger Danger – Music Of Sound

The Music Of Sound have had a busy old year! A member not joining the band but rejoining the band making them a quartet, music videos and of course new releases. I have a personal investment in this band as I’ve helped them shoot their videos in and around London and it’s helped me to …

Track Of The Day: It’s A Joke! – Graham Graham Beck

Graham Graham Beck has dropped a new album and this is one of the tracks from it. It even comes with a video, and as is Graham’s trademark both the song and video are packed full of quirks. This song is an ode to what is known to be the world’s oldest joke shop in …

Track Of The Day: Like Michael – Prodbear

This track made me smile as the references to Michael Caine are pretty cool, the cockney accents, the reference to his famous line from The Italian Job. Which is actually misquoted I’m not sure if that’s intentional or not – it’s supposed to be you’re only supposed to blow the bloody doors off. But probably …

Track Of The Day: Adelide – Circles

I was so happy when this made the Listening Post and faves! It was one of those songs that takes you back in time – the first clue is the cassette player opening up, before going into a song that’s got the Roland D-50 bells that were so popular back in 1987-89. It’s scary to …

Track Of The Day: Another Star – Stevie Wonder

 This week marks 50 years since Stevie Wonder released this phenomenal album. It is a collection of songs that cover social justice, celebrating musical legends, parenthood and just a need to set the dancefloor alight. This song falls into the latter category, it’s got an infectious singalong chorus, percussion going wild, the whole band absolutely …

Track Of The Day: “First Move” – Lily Ward

Track Of The Day “First Move” @lilywardy my mate Lily Ward dropped a new single on Friday and unsurprisingly it’s a good one! This combines dream pop elements with drum n bass beats, carrying her delicate vocals but don’t let that fool you as because when she hits the chorus she’s in her element – what Lily …

Track Of The Day: “Angels” – Lee”Scratch” Perry X Stephen Marshall X Geo Baddoo

As we cling on the last strands of the summer this track is pretty apt, it’s a chilled reggae track featuring the late great reggae legend Lee Scratch Perry, this is dipped in spicy flavours with the dub feel to it, the bass rumbles through you and you hear Lee whisper a simple line:Singers and …

Chillout Track Of The Day: “Barber’s Adagio For Strings” – William Orbit

I remember when this came out, thirty one years ago, and it was put on a lot of chill out CDs specifically the Ibiza chill out ones which I thought was an odd choice because when I thought Ibiza I associated it with dance music. But then there’s also the need to wind down – …
