Sniffing out the best new music
Brighton is our next stop for a progressive dance release from Kuda Blue. 'AURAS' is an absolutely brilliant production and I'm absolutely astounded that it is only lurking on a couple of thousand listens. This tune dons a fantastic bass-heavy layered beat throughout and whoever it was that thought it up, rests high in my... Continue Reading →
Our Track of the Day comes from Manchester’s LoFi Soul Pop duo ‘Darcie’. I just stumbled upon this earlier today and was taken aback by it’s simple beauty. On further inspection I found that these youngsters were featured in ‘NME’s 100 Essential Artists for 2018’, no surprise there. It all takes time, they are still... Continue Reading →
More Irish music here from Rory Hall AKA Proper Micro NV (Strange name that). Hall hails from Limerick and is affiliated to Strange Brew Records. ‘Dot Dot Dot’ is a down-tempo tune that I really have a soft spot for as it reminds me of Scottish producer Koreless for some reason. Now I’m going to... Continue Reading →
This has to be the most exciting thing to come out of this week in music, for me anyway. A free album released by DJ Jenifa on bandcamp. Who the hell is DJ Jenifa? Well, it’s none other than Chelmsford’s beloved Derwin Schlecker ( GOLD PANDA ). These are all nibbles Schlecker has been working... Continue Reading →
Some mad chilling deja-vu stuff, Peter & Kerry? I think they are back you know, banding around some deep vibes again. This duo (Peter Lyons & Kerry Leatham) shot to my attention just over seven years ago with their quirky acoustic version of Amerie’s (annoying) 2011 hit ‘One Thing’. Their languished, seamless and effortless, vocal... Continue Reading →

In the midst of a solid night of trawling through the new songs of the week, I stumbled upon this little rascal from a young lad named Tom Vernon. This fella hails from the secluded Jersey, Channel Islands UK. Vernon has clearly been working hard honing his craft in the past few months judging by... Continue Reading →
I heard Helado Negro's 'Please Don't Wait' when it was pre-released back in November last year and thought it was fairly decent but ultimately scrolled on without taking to much further notice. Fast forward a couple of months and I'm sitting here listening to the same song in disbelief that I didn't fire it up... Continue Reading →
Yes, I am back lurking around the release outpost of Studio Barnhus - Stockholm, once more. One of the founding members Kornél Kovács is at it this week with a fruity new one called 'Rocks'. For me, this is far and away my most favoured label at the moment, everything seems to strike some sort... Continue Reading →
Rewind to Circa 2010 - Glastonbury's introducing stage - you will find a young ripe Little Comets belting out 'Joanna' on the newly formed BBC Three repeat show. This is where I first came across these North Eastern U.K band in all their glory. Back then they were signed and swiftly left 'Columbia Records' due... Continue Reading →
