All the Playlists

Great Eastern Highway – Delilah Rose & the Gunslingers

16 October 2018

I’m finding myself drifting off into the dark side of country all too often these days –

So with a recent request from a listener to lighten the f*ck up….here we are!  lol……

Lucky for me – this week marks the release of Delilah Rose and the Gunslingers EP  “Good Grief”…

Flaquita – Marco Mares

16 October 2018

Seguro lo notaron, lo sé, de alguna manera necesitaba ausentarme para
regresar con más ganas e historias que compartir, lo interesante es
que el Track de ésta semana no es una canción que yo descubrí…

İstikrarlı Hayal Hakikattir – Gaye Su Akyol

15 October 2018

Turkish psychedelia, surf, punk, rock’n roll and a lot more! Our very own Gaye Su Akyol is back with a single from her upcoming album with the same name: İstikikrarlı Hayal Hakikattir (Consistent Fantasy Is Reality)…

I Don’t Stand a Ghost of a Chance With You – Joe Pass

10 October 2018

Sometimes it’s all about mood setting – you want the music to whisk you away to a certain time and place by creating an environment you can get lost in. What I love about this process though – is that it’s still totally subjective – the place I go to when I listen to this track is going to be way different than yours – I suspect ;-)…

Crescent – Brendan Perry

10 October 2018

Romantic and dreamy, a “Song of the Stars” (for you DCD geeks), the heavens above, the illusion of time and reality, yet grounded to the experience of here and now on earth, or at least our perception of it…

Moving Boxes – With Confidence

10 October 2018

In Lieu of the fact that I will be seeing With Confidence this Sunday at the Troubadour in West Hollywood, CA I could not think of a better song to feature this week than “Moving Boxes”; one of three singles released off of their latest album ‘Love and Loathing’…

Lets Get Physical – Guy Scheiman

9 October 2018

Be prepared to get physical as this week’s track comes from DJ/Producer Guy Scheiman and Michal S as they put an electronic dance vibe on the original classic hit “Lets Get Physical” by Olivia Newton-John…

Third Eye – Big K.R.I.T

9 October 2018

Spirituality might be a very subjective thing; this song is a beautiful testimony of one’s experience with it through a romantic relationship…

Fear Of The Dark – Iron Maiden

9 October 2018

It’s about being scared but not really knowing what of. They say that everybody has a secret fear of something, they just don’t always know what it is – until it’s too late.

– Steve Harris (of Iron Maiden) on the song “Fear Of The Dark”…

The Cinema Show – Genesis

9 October 2018

Now this is the real McCoy, from Genesis’s best album (in my humble opinion) – “Selling England By The Pound” – released all those years ago (1973!) and featuring Peter Gabriel of course. They’d already broken new ground with “Foxtrot” and “Trespass” with their lengthy rambles into instrumental riffs allied to absurdist lyrics from Gabriel – have a listen to “Get Em Out By Friday” or “Supper’s Ready” if you want a real taste of that!..

Part 44 – Given Circumstances

9 October 2018

September 1981.

‘So. Inspection.’ The Big Cheese’s addressing the staff at the beginning of my fifth new academic year. In full swing.  

My own relationship with him has gradually morphed from outright fear to grudging respect. In turn, he even occasionally tries to share a joke with me nowadays as if somehow, I too have morphed from dangerous deranged specimen teaching an irrelevant subject to a young radical bringing in valuable and valued new pupils…

Connection – OneRepublic

9 October 2018

“I just really want to be present this year.” That’s the late-night conversation I found myself having in the room I share with my best friend. And it got me thinking.

We spend so much time on our phones trying to keep up with what everyone else is doing that we end up missing what’s going on around us and right in front of us…
