Over the last week or two I have been busy scrolling through endless submissions on Submithub in search of suitable tunes to add into this feature.

Ah yes, I hadn't intended on writing up a new tune review this weekend. Over the last couple of days I started writing a few short stories for the first time.

Miller Blue is one of the thousands of musicians inspired by a combination of James Blake and Frank Ocean. I was dumbfounded when sent his tune 'Marigold' by Scottish songwriter Neev a couple of weeks ago. Once again, I managed to miss another emerging artist who strikes all the right notes. Marigold quickly became an... Continue Reading →
