Sniffing out the best new music
I'm aware there is still a portion of time left this year for a new song to arrive, sweep me off my feet and install itself as number one. However, I'm not much of a Christmas song kind of guy so I'm ploughing ahead regardless. I've got mixed emotions about 2021 - on one hand,... Continue Reading →
The Sound Sniffer is heading towards its fourth birthday as a music blog in 2022. 'Tis mad to think it's been this going this long - considering it felt like yesterday it all began with myself roughly issuing articles of babble about my favourite music whilst sitting bored behind the reception desk at a hostel...

My life has gone totally mad recently which has left a whole host of songs in my queue unshared. I will attempt to catch up on lost time and share a good few of them this afternoon in this edition of the 'Post' Lockdown Mixtape. I've been focusing on the logistics of getting some big...

Hey hey y’all, Sienna back again with some fresh tunes for your hungry ears – and this week I’m on a massive soft indie hype, we’re all about upholding a chill tone, melodic vocals that sound like honey, and instrumentals bordering on electronic but keeping true to the low-key atmosphere.

Around two years ago I recieved my first submission from Kate. It was a weirdly experimental and abstract single called 'Bicycle Spokes'. Initially I didn't really know what I was listening to and that's why it resonated. Off beat percussion and a woman doing her own thing. As a blog that strives to uncover the... Continue Reading →
I love a good underground indie find.

Hertfordshire is a great place. A little green version of myself moved over to the leafy pastures of this county back in 2015. Back then, I didn’t really have a bull’s notion what life was all about or what to be at with myself. Fast forward six years and I still haven’t completely nailed it,... Continue Reading →
The importance of a routine is so underestimated. Since arriving back in the UK again last month, life has been going okay to be fair. In times gone by I would waste plenty of time pondering what the magic formula for this was, but I don't need to, it is abundantly clear that the reason... Continue Reading →
It's been a miserable day hasn't it? Not only is the weather pretty drab and wet, my tooth has decided to give me the mightiest ache I've ever had. Both things combined make this a forgettable Tuesday evening in. The show must go on however and new music must be plugged regardless of how utterly... Continue Reading →
