Hold On – Tom Waits

13 March 2018

We all know and love Tom Waits. If you don’t – you should…

I actually spent a few hours preparing a track and a write-up this week, but lost the lot as I hit the send button.

The reason for this worthless info, you ask? Well….

Three King Fishers – Gabor Szabo

13 March 2018

This jellyfish is on the move today.  The vast mountains of coral streak past.  Schools of fish go about their business on either side.  Cucumbers and anenome wave hello from the ocean floor.  A lone squid pauses his hunt for a moment to clock you with his enormous eyes.  You pick up speed, and all the ocean’s denizens start to blur together…

Murder – Lido

13 March 2018

This track must be one of the most extraordinary listening experiences I have ever had!

The track begins with pitched vocals and a soft melody. This smoothly progresses into a wild frenzy of a drop filled with lush synths and insanely intricate drum patterns, which will leave you in amazement…

Cool – Zack Villere

13 March 2018

Zack Villere first caught my attention with his video for his song cool. A wonky electronic jam about feeling uncool. Zack paints the relatable picture of not being comfortable in your own skin and the self acceptance of owning yourself. Not only is the song super catchy but the video is the most awkward thing I’ve seen all year…

Ain’t Nothing – Juicy J, Ty Dolla $ign, Wiz Khalifa

8 March 2018

This that higher level, buy the bar and if you aint got got it fake it till you make it type club song. Its got that deep bass along with those high chimes that go perfect in any club setting.

Man I’m Supposed to Be – American Aquarium

7 March 2018

I was writing a few weeks back about how it’s often seeing an act of human kindness that will make me cry – more so than experiencing something sad.  There’s something in that – focusing on the good rather than the bad – that makes this track resonate for the grieve to list.

Lady in Red – Afrosamuraiist

7 March 2018

You know one of my favorite websites?

When I’m feeling like I currently am it’s a definite go to ‘cos when it says “Yes” I can relax knowing that the weird discombobulating shit that’s surrounding me is down to weird ass planetary mechanics and completely out of my control.

Aston Martin Music – Rick Ross

7 March 2018

William Leonard Roberts II , known professionally by his stage name Rick Ross is arguably one of my favorite artist of all time. Not just because he and I are both from Florida or both born in 1976. But because he has over and over delivered some of the greatest music from a hip hop artist. 

Humanitarians – Wesley Jensen and the Penny Arcade

6 March 2018

Have you ever bought tickets to see a band that you really liked, and then ended up liking the opening band even better than the main act?

III. Telegraph Ave. (“Oakland” by Lloyd) – Childish Gambino

6 March 2018

TV show “Atlanta” is back one air for its second season, and with it, Donald Glover is on the front page of every culture and entertainment publication (at least in North America). This has me digging through the discography of Glover’s musical persona, Childish Gambino, and brings us to this week’s track: “III. Telegraph Ave (“Oakland” by Lloyd)” off his 2013 album Because The Internet. 

Kendi Halimde – Can Kazaz

6 March 2018

Can Kazaz is a singer/ songwriter from Turkey. He released three albums, two EPs and a single. He performed in many important festivals all around Turkey. The important thing about him is that he knows how to blend deep emotions with great music.

Fallin’ Rain – Karl Blau

6 March 2018

Have you ever listened to the rain? What about the water in the shower? The sound is quite soothing isn’t it, very calming, but also acts as background noise to let our mind wander.
