All the Playlists

By the Light of Dawn – Jon Meyer

11 November 2019

There’s nothing like falling into a creative hole – it doesn’t matter what you’re doing – whether you’re writing a novel, a symphony or leading a community – it’s never the falling in that’s the hard part – it’s the climbing out that scares the shit out of you – what if you never make it…?

Armour – Tanya Ransom

8 November 2019

And I’m ready to fight
And I’m ready to fight
And I’m ready to fight
you tonight
tonight, tonight, tonight

Oh hell yes! ‘Cos that’s the ultimate truth isn’t it – at the end of day – there’s only one person that’s going to get you out of the hole…

You Get So Alone Sometimes – HOAX

7 November 2019

Loneliness is an interesting thing. Over the years, I’ve come to understand that one can be alone in many different ways and equally, in many different situations. We usually associate loneliness with not having another individual close by physically, interpreting it therefore as isolation. However, the truth of the matter is that you can be surrounded by familiar faces and still feel alone…

7 Reasons to Hate Music Curators

7 November 2019

I get it.

You have a strong dislike towards Music Curators.

But is it justified?

You notice your eyes twitch every time you check musicto.com for the Track of the Week. Have Music Curators somehow become both the kid you hate – the one who sits like a right angle in front of the class, raising their hand before the question is asked, AND the kid you hate – the one who sits like a protractor in the back of the class, talking noise with their crew about how no one uses geometry in real life?

6 November 2019

Now, before I go off on one – in my inimitable and fawningly effervescent style – please do yourself a favour.

Find this song – COMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN

By this band – THE FIRELIGHT OPERA

Listen in reverence… Thank me later…

CYANIDE – Daniel Caesar

5 November 2019

I found Daniel Caesar’s 2019 project, CASE STUDY 01, to be a pretty enjoyable R&B album. In my opinion, the best song on the project is “CYANIDE”…

Planet U – Mereba

5 November 2019

Marian Mereba has become one of the rising stars of R&B and soul music scene. She made her debut back in 2013 with EP Room for Living. It was more like a folk-soul project yet so successful….

Waves – Tawnbei

5 November 2019

November is here, year is almost done, not much we can do to avoid it being honest but thinking in this year, did you make any of your dreams became true?…

Devil – Tyler Glenn

5 November 2019

“I think the devil made me / Do it, do it, baby / I found myself when I lost my faith…” Hmm, interesting Tyler Glenn (frontman of Neon Trees), very interesting.  “Devil,” the superb, final song off of Glenn’s 2016 solo album, Excommunication, finds Glenn coming to terms with sexuality and religion, specifically, the LDS (Mormon) church…

Blood And Wine – Marcin Przybyłowicz

5 November 2019

A crumpled note, scrawled in red — ‘If only they knew. The show I have in store for them, oh if only they knew…

Teresa, Lark of Ascension – Broadcast

5 November 2019

As our October rituals wash away crimson and seep into the impending winds of winter, I am revisiting a foundational text of Music to Scry To in the form of Broadcast…

As the Crow Flies – Tony Joe White

5 November 2019

Only just last week, the 24th of October marked the one year anniversary of Tony Joe’s passing.

The Swamp Fox brought us,”Polk Salad Annie”,”Rainy Night in Georgia” and many more. His genre crossing collaborations stretched far and wide – as did his tribute’s…
