All the Playlists

Lfost – Calcou

12 August 2019

‘Drifting, floating, falling, but never moving… Time ripples around me but I can’t reach it, and I’m held here in a stasis that lasts an eternity and spans an entire universe…

Grape Choice – tajima hal

12 August 2019

Noire ambient, classy suits, funny cigarettes, a jazz ambiance cocktail bar, do you smell it? oh yes, crime needs to be resolved, probably a spy or an undercover cop is on the chase right now, I know it is a weird comparison but…

Summer Nights – Noah Rosen (ft. Alex Jones, Joe Newton, Tommy & Danny Ferdon)

12 August 2019

A creation of lively instrumental abundance. The act of speaking through sound without the boundaries or barriers confined within the walls of words. A universal feeling induced only by pure instrumentation to awaken the sounds of the soul…

No Strings Attached – Larger Than 90

10 August 2019

This track is very funk rock soul with a standard 4 piece band. It talks about how one can avoid heartbreak by having no strings attached to the other person. A very raw sound, bluesy solos and strong high pitched vocals…

Dream To Keep Us Going – Easy Wanderlings

10 August 2019

This track is by a band I recently found out about, it has a very folksy, blues-tinged pop rock feel to it. The song speaks about being hopeful and the fact that we should never stop dreaming. The song starts with a genre and suddenly shifts to another which sounds cool and innovative…

Some – Steve Lacy

8 August 2019

“Some” starts with the light but steady drums the backbone and support for the whole song. Just as you start to get comfortable Steve slides in with the confidence and swagger reminiscent of many RnB greats. Lacy shines in a streaming world where his often less than perfect mixes have a bedroom pop quality to them…

Alright – Jordan Rakei

8 August 2019

There are few voices that can cut to the soul as effortlessly as Jordan Rakei’s. A veteran talent from New Zealand, I chose this song as it is evident within seconds you’re in for a treat. Even those aren’t drawn in by the groovy jazz driven soul instrumentation will be by his soothing voice…

Shipwreck – Marcos Ciscar

7 August 2019

Recently, the playlist has been driven by words – by lyric – by the articulation of vowels and consonants to give voice to a story. And that’s a good thing – there’s an infinite number of stories out there and words are a great tool to understand and make sense of them…

Everything is Alright – Neil and Adam

7 August 2019

It transpires that Everything Is Alright was actually recorded and performed by veteran St. Louis songwriting partnership Neil McCloskey and Adam Hilligardt, quite recently as it happens, in 2015. Its nimble-footed fusion of soul, pop, and soft-rock is the stuff of all those eighties life-affirming pop hits that made Hall and Oates the most successful pop duo in the world ever…

The Ephemeral Bluebell – Bibio

7 August 2019

Ephemerality is defined as the state of something that lasts for only a short period of time. It is commonly used to describe the passing of the seasons and the bloom and decay of nature…

Change – NF

7 August 2019

I like to rap but I ain’t gonna do it forever.”

Here’s a riddle: What is the thing all us claim we want, but deep inside, if we’re being honest, terrifies us?

Here’s a hint: it’s the only constant in life.

You guessed it. Change…

Wolf Whistle Dub – Jakebob

7 August 2019

Since Jakebob emerged in the Underground Bass scene many moons back, he’s been going from strength to strength, bossing every release he’s a part of. Being a producer and MC Jakebob comes with the full package…
