Writing has taken the back seat a little as a new obsession takes hold. I am totally obsessed with booking gigs now! I mean, it’s not the worst obsession in the world – but it’s a very tricky one to control. I’m addicted.. as soon as one is pencilled in, I begin squirrelling away on... Continue Reading →
The Sound Sniffer’s ‘Post’ Lockdown Mixtape #46
I've had the house to myself for a week and it's been very enjoyable. I've been so used to sharing my space and living with others so this week of solitude has been pretty relaxing.

It's a reflective Sunday evening here in my room and a monologue is just what the doctor ordered. These Lockdown... Continue Reading →
The Sound Sniffer’s Lockdown Mixtape #33

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 →
The Sound Sniffer’s Lockdown Mixtape #32 (Electronic)
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 →
