Sniffing out the best new music
Here is a new idea: let's push the brand new music to one side for a second and focus on the songs that have been on heavy rotation over the last twelve months. The 'Most Cherished Finds' feature will shine a bright light on the most precious songs that have become essential mainstays in all... Continue Reading →
Went a bit crazy during the week and ordered a big bunch of Sound Sniffer merch online for myself. The reasoning behind this bulky and impulsive purchase was pretty logical (for my standards) actually. The idea came to me following a little shopping trip in Watford. I needed summer t-shirts; I set off for Primark,... Continue Reading →
It's been a long day but there's still a little gas left in the tank. It's approaching 12am here in London and the wordpress tab has been clicked on my browser. This only means one thing; another edition of the lockdown mixtape incoming for you all to enjoy/endure/experience - whichever description suits. Been a hectic... Continue Reading →
A Non-Music related Introduction: A Story from my life: Went on a date there about a month ago near my house with a serial Tweeter (Tweetist), a fairly respected BBC TV show writer. I motormouthed my way through the date, the usual (to be expected) behaviour from myself. I filled every moment of silence with... Continue Reading →
Sometimes the best things are worth waiting for.... In terms of Jordz' debut single arriving, this certainly is the case. I've been tracking the talented Romford rapper since 2019 ever since hearing one of his unique mixtapes online. I've been waiting patiently for his first single to drop for ages. Last Friday, that time came.... Continue Reading →

I did my annual Primark blitz shopping about a month ago, filling the black mesh shopping basket with all sorts of summery things, caps, sunglasses, shorts, t-shirts and even a vest type thing (optimistic). 'Ah, it's... 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 →
While the vast majority of the population have returned to pottering around and going about their usual day jobs (albeit online and from home for the most part), others simply haven't had that same luxury. Life has been a bizarre thing over the past fourteen months hasn't it? For those in the hospitality sector and... Continue Reading →
It took a little more time than usual to spot a fresh new batch of tracks worthy of a placing in the mixtape. For about a week now, I've been shifting through countless submissions, trying to unearth the gold we are all used to hearing on this site (I hope you think it's gold). It... Continue Reading →
Leo Appleyard, aka Urchin, has been on The Sound Sniffer's radar for a couple of years now. He is one of London's finest producers in my book and it's always a pleasure taking in new music from him. About a week ago I was made aware of a new single due for release and was... Continue Reading →
