YOUNG THE GIANT, THE SCARAMANGA SIX plus CYMBALS
April 29th, 2011 by admin
If you like your Rock’n’Roll I sense you’ll be more than a bit partial to ‘My Body’ by YOUNG THE GIANT. Featuring the Rock equivalent to a ‘Wall-of-Sound’ it’s a big rock anthem well endowed with melody and passionate vocals. If this song was a cock it would be at least ten inches. Talking of [...]

I am seriously concerned about the situation in the US at the moment. People are quite rightly asking questions about the birth place of their leaders, past, present and future. Some question whether such questions should even be posed, that they are just a distraction. Well I am sorry I think it’s important. If Donald [...]

MARBLE PLAYERS, THE MILK plus JOANNA AND THE WOLF
April 26th, 2011 by admin
The beat on MARBLE PLAYERS ‘Playground’ is as infectious as a man-whore with forty years experience under his well worn belt. Big track. So simple. So contagious. Equally as infectious in its own unique non man-whore way is the new track from THE MILK. Imagine a Rock’N’Soul musical milkshake featuring a dash of The Doors [...]

SEBASTIAN, TODDLA T + DILLON FRANCIS plus CATS EYES
April 22nd, 2011 by admin
Having spent quite a bit of time over the years talking (perhaps that should be ranting?) about our mutual love of brand new music you will have picked up on my fondness for electronic tuneage hailing from the other side the of the English Channel. It’s sad I know but it’s one of those musical [...]

AUCTION, ESTELLE and RAPHAEL SAADIQ
April 19th, 2011 by admin
Yeah it’s true some people source a lot of their passion for New Music from the well of snobbery, fashionista and all-round obsessive desire to be ahead of the crowd. For me it’s all about the buzz of hearing a track for the very first time that really grabs you. It’s the musical equivalent of [...]

MARCUS FOSTER, NATALIE DUNCAN plus MOON DUO
April 8th, 2011 by admin
I know this is a stupidly obvious thing to say about a singer but yep I’m going to say it anyway… with MARCUS FOSTER it is all about the voice. It’s got a gravel, an angst, an inner strength that could easily fall the wrong side of cliché but for me safely lands on the [...]
