The Bar At The End Of The World – Poppet

17 September 2018

The Sun – Baxter Dury

17 September 2018

Un joven solo, sentado en la oscuridad, jugando con su arma es todo lo que necesita Baxter Dury en “The Sun” para darle una mano de pintura fresca a la soledad Made in “All the lonely people” de Eleanor Rigby.  La imagen esta circundada por un coro en pijamas que canta “No one ever told us that we’re going to be left alone”…

Nina Cried Power – Hozier

17 September 2018

“It’s not the waking, it’s the rising / It is the grounding of a foot uncompromising.”  Those lyrics are nothing short of passionate, poetic, and incredibly prudent.  For Irish singer/songwriter Hozier, known for “Take Me to Church,” socially-charged songs are his wheelhouse…

Pretty Little Fears – 6lack ft J. Cole

17 September 2018

I am really excited about this track because it features one of my favorite artistes 🙂 

6lack (pronounced black  but I prefer to call him ‘6 lack’ LOL) is a really talented artiste that caught my attention in 2016 with his single ‘prblems’  and I’ve been a loyal fan since then. His music is just so different; the best way i can describe it is it’s chill and simple!…

Part 41 – Given Circumstances

17 September 2018

Summer term. 1981.

I’m in my study listening to Pat Metheny on the cassette player, holding a letter from The Big Cheese, countersigned by the Bursar confirming a rise in salary next year. “In recognition of your contribution to drama at Fitzrovia.”

It’s warm June sunshine outside with the aroma of fresh mown grass through the open window; a presage to cricket nets in half an hour. At the sound of footsteps in the corridor I thrust the letter into my pocket…

Burning Summer- Wyndsrfr

12 September 2018

This song is your college bedroom, midterms creeping up on you, sweat on your forehead and an ache in your shoulders. This song is the rumble in your stomach when you remember you’ve been so busy working you forgot a meal or two…

Ghost Pong – Emancipator

12 September 2018

Mindfulness of the mind. 

Mental health and mental healing – all the rave for a select few compared to the majority of people. The people who talk about it, live and swear by it. While those who turn away either have no idea how to start, are even aware that they need healing, or are so afraid of opening that door that they drown out that inner voice with everything and anything…
