updated on Leave a Comment on Track Of The Day: “Joy” – Martin Smith X Watoto Choir

I’ve just discovered this little beauty released on the 7th August! This is gospel music with an anthemic chorus that you can imagine echoing in churches around the world – hold that thought. Martin Smith is no stranger to writing anthemic hymns – after all it was 30 years this year that I heard Thankyou …

Track Of The Day: “Global” Ana Bulnes

updated on Leave a Comment on Track Of The Day: “Global” Ana Bulnes

This track brings Latin grooves and melds it with atmospheric sounds, plus a vocal delivered in Spanish.., this track is giving me the perfect soundtrack to my sunset… the beat is built around shakers, kick, snare, a sunny 808 which is perfect for the date. Ana Bulnes delivers a performance that isn’t reliant on the …

Track Of The Day: Sky – Noonzi

updated on Leave a Comment on Track Of The Day: Sky – Noonzi

 this track caught my attention because of the rhythmic textures – the congas, the shakers, vocal samples and cymbal swells – there’s not much singing here but it whisks you off to another world it’s the perfect tropic summer vibe! I like the way the drums roll into each other like a stuttering effect, the …

AROUND ABOUT DUSK- without you Around About Dusk · Without You This has such a World War II era jazz feel to it, none of the gloss that came later on, but the kind you’d expect in the background of a period drama. This could be playing in the background on a grainy gramophone, at …

Now this is a track that is a meal suitable only for the Asantehene! A bit of folk, combined with soul, and a bit of an Afrobeat groove to sweeten the Ghanaian jollof rice of a track that we have here. If you know you know. This starts off with a cool guitar riff, leading …

Well now! According to my calculations, this act made the faves waaaaaaaaaay back in 2014. So we’re going old school! Back then FOTN founder Tom Robinson reviewed them. 11 years ago! They’ve even got his review in their bio. Wow. This starts off with a Middle Eastern influenced violin melody, and then the percussion drops …

updated on

Lord Gabrielle Sey can sing! This starts off with an acoustic guitar then Gabrielle’s vocals enter the chat rich and warm, it leaves you wrapped up in a warm winter coat watching the sun set over Greenwich Park while drinking the sweetest creamiest hot chocolate. The melody soars through and Gabrielle switches gears in the …
