I made a conscious decision to start picking up some new music, but as I’ve been so busy with my day job and my own music work it’s been almost impossible to keep up/get new stuff. So at the weekend I dove in and started floating around in the world of new releases, picking...
The Chap are an interesting band, one that I have a few tracks by that I really like, but one where I have for whatever reason not got round to picking up their full albums. I first bumped into them via a track called ‘I got flattened by a pig farmer’ from their first...
Today we revisit the wonder of the remix. Like Gigamesh, who’s remix of James Curd’s ‘Guide Me’ I posted up a while back, RAC are masters at taking an original track, accentuating and complimenting its best bits and subsequently taking it to a more potent place. I think their remix of Alex Winston’s ‘Velvet...
I had nothing prepared for today as I've had to jump in for fourbearsjr at short notice so, as such, I'm going to grab a freebie and indulge a small guilty pleasure of mine and pick a track i doubt many people thought they'd see on here. Tigercity – Powerstripe I, and fourbearsjr, have always...
Aaaaaaaaaaaand i'm back after a fantastic break with the family, so many thanks to fourbearsjr for holding the fort in my absence. Whilst I've been sunning it up in Spain I've also been destroying all my gadgets, lost my phone to a particularly vicious floor, my studio headphones to age and today just as I was...
This is a belated Friday post, but I wanted to put it up. Yesterday I drove into work with my wife and boy and knew we would be listening to the radio, so, I devised a game for today’s post. I would listen to the track on the radio and I would either put...
Today I travelled in with the wife and boy, we chatted and sang and so there was no real play list. So time for a freebie. Nice Now I am not a particular fan of Tina Turner – you can keep your Nut Bush City Limits, she simply isn’t the best and I prefer...
Aapie is away this week on a well deserved holiday, so you are stuck with me holding the fort. Tonight is going to be a short one but a good one. Now, some of my posts recently, have been a little bit out there so today I have gone for something that is a...
OK, I know that I posted about the Dirty Projectors before, and that it was the other day, and that it was a track off their new album. But, I got the album over the weekend and haven’t played anything else since – plus, both days travelling into work this week were soundtracked by...
First things first – It’s not a heavy metal band, it's a band led by the prolific Dan Bejar. I actually first came across his work via one of his many side projects Swan Lake, then a friend of mine put me onto his work as Destroyer and then I moved on to the...
