To close out a fabulous top ten, we have a track that starts off all mysterious, and flips the script on wanting to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city to find comfort in isolation – this song is all about escaping to civilisation! I like that, it’s like coming out of a …
Salt Lake City you say? Well this is new territory for us! This is a song that calls upon analogue synths and pitch bends giving it a real 80s feel, the beat is off kilter and the sounds are ethereal – guitars both acoustic and electric provide a great backdrop on this – what I …
Congratulations on the release of Humanity- how does it feel? It feels like letting a secret out into the world – a beautiful secret we’ve been patiently nurturing. We’ve been performing some of these songs live for a while, so finally being able to share the studio versions feels like opening a bottle that’s been …
Let’s get this out of the way. I’m a Swifty. This is the second track of hers that I’ve reviewed this year. I know that the media and the world at large tends to have a love hate relationship with her but that’s their problem. They’ll find someone else to love to hate eventually. Ms. …
I’m excited about this one because I’ve been keeping an eye on brother and sister duo Dorsten for a long time. Sophie’s track “Tomorrow” still makes me emotional and is one of my favourite discoveries of the last few years. This track starts off with acoustic guitar, picked over a chugged rhythm, it’s triplets and …
Hello Mary how are you? I am great, thank you! Congratulations on the release of The Poison I Choose how does it feel? It has been surreal, I have been working towards this release for some time now. Having the album out everywhere has been a dream of mine and I am excited for what’s …
Hi Ana, how are you? I’m doing well. Excited to be releasing “Bleeding Pen,” but also have some of those release jitters! Congratulations on the upcoming release of “Bleeding Pen,” how does it feel to put this song out? Insane, honestly! I’ve been really looking forward to putting this one out. I’m very proud of …
This looks like Dog Monologue’s first single from what I can see, and it’s a great way to introduce us to their world. This is an electro-pop track, with an ethereal feel, I’m getting the feeling they have a love for analog synths. Lyrically this talks about a journey in the moonlight in a zoo, …
Throwback Track Of The Day “Groove Is In The Heart – Deee-Lite.@theonlyjosie reminded me that this track was 35 years old. I remember the year it came out, it was a heady time, it was pre Madchester, Oasis were still in nappies and Grunge was still in the Delta Quadrant. This further brought the possibilities of …
This one is a pulse racer! The piano sets the tempo, and just runs! It’s a great little jazz instrumental, using bass, drums, and piano, the whole track is off kilter it seems the time signature flits between a few bars I gave up counting because quite frankly it had me grooving. It messes with …
