Sniffing out the best new music
It's the first of November - turn on the heat, fill the water bottles - get the woolly hats and scarves knitted. We've literally teleported through 2021 at rapid speed. Gigs returned in the Summer and London has swiftly returned to itself again - the highlight gig of my year thus far has to be... Continue Reading →
I had my first lazy day in ages today. Sometimes a lazy day is needed, although taking one always has to be done in moderation. Too many lazy days consecutively can result in productivity screeching to a halt and that is a dangerous thing. I woke up at the normal time today but stayed in... Continue Reading →
Sienna again! And this week I’ve got a banging Australian artist to recommend to all you lovely people. I miss a lot about home but one of the things that tops the list is the Aussie music scene, and specifically its focus on finding and unearthing new artists; all with brand new sounds and so...

Monday: The day most hate with a passion. It's the day I love the most. As I work in hospitality as my main career, Monday has always been that much needed day off after a weekend of high octane intensity. There is a certain excitement to a Monday morning as I tend to plan my... Continue Reading →

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...

A few months ago, I stumbled across a submission from Swiss artist Mo Klé, and immediately fell in love with the beautiful simplicity of the song, and after that I needed to find out more. So after a few months of coordinating and trying to get our schedules to line up, I was lucky enough... Continue Reading →
I've had a week of socialising this week - out for dinner, went to gigs, spoke to friends. It was basically a holiday week without boarding a plane, packing a bag or actually going anywhere. I think people forget to go on holidays where they live. We all associate holidays with travel but this week... Continue Reading →
One of the simplest, but most incredible, joys in this life (in my opinion) is being reminded of an old song you once loved, but have since forgotten about. I doubt any of you would try and fight me on that but if you were about to, it’s not worth it I promise you; I... Continue Reading →
One of Africa's finest musical exports and one of my favourite DJ's, Floyd Lavine, kindly took time away from his holiday this week to chat to me about his latest release Creda Mutwa which has surfaced today on Parisian label FRAPPÉ. I had the pleasure of seeing Lavine perform a blasting Afro House set in... Continue Reading →
