All the Playlists

Breezin’ – George Benson

18 July 2017

Most people don’t know that soul singer Bobby Womack composed the luscious “Breezin’,” made popular by singer-songwriter/guitarist George Benson.

Unfuck the World – Prophets of Rage

18 July 2017

This year’s first new Prophets of Rage material, Unfuck the World, has all the characteristics you’d expect from RATM and Public Enemy. Frankly, it feels like it was made for the Music to Fight Evil playlist.

Dismantle – Peter Sandberg

18 July 2017

WOW, this is a perfect track to keep your mind away from the anxiety and the fears about flying. This piano solo song is able to caress your soul, driving you in a place surrounded by light and comfortable feelings.

Billie Jean – Pink Turtle

18 July 2017

After a great jazz week, why not extend it for another week showing groups making a difference in the genre. And this week we will be featuring Pink Turtle, an awesome french swing jazz band, making a great cover of Billie Jean…

Coven – Fabrice Torricella

18 July 2017

Currently I’ve been putting a lot of focus on the 90s in the playlist because I feel it was really such an important time for the underground sound. Not only was it when I personally got into the music, it was also a time where Europe really helped to propel it into the limelight.

Somebody – Dream Wife

18 July 2017

This song isn’t overly complicated nor is it overly angstyInstead, it’s a catchy tune that lightheartedly mocks the unwanted attention that pretty girls in male-dominated industries have to face. Sure, being a pretty girl has its advantages but sometimes it can also feel like a curse.

They Thought I Was Asleep – Paul Kelly

17 July 2017

So stoked to bring you another Aussie gem, back to back with last weeks “Cruel Sea”.

Paul Kelly would have to be one of the most respected Singer/Songwriters in Australia. Every couple of years he’ll pop up in an intimate Theatre or home town show, whether he’s solo or with his band you can be guaranteed the night of your life.

Funky Love – Nate James

15 July 2017

I remember hearing this song for the first time in London at Cafe 1001. I hushed my friends so that my phone could hear over the loud voices and espresso machine and tell me what song was sound-tracking everyone’s’ conversations.

Gold In Them Hills – Ron Sexsmith

11 July 2017

This is one of those tracks that just oozes hope.  It creeps up on you – slowly but surely, inexorably even, and before you know it, your hands are covered and there’s a small spark in your breast that might be, that just might be, the light at the end of the tunnel.

Fiel – Igor Longhi

11 July 2017

Essay writing music is essentially Trance music – well, OK – that might be a little broad but really, what we’re talking about is music that you can fall in to, that doesn’t freak you out, that becomes familiar quickly & allows you to get lost in your own thoughts.

Brunch at the Bodega – Flamingosis

11 July 2017

Personally I enjoy cleaning. It lets me clear my mind and think things through. But don’t get me wrong I love playing music that gets me moving, so having a song that does both for me is the best .

The Melody – Joey Beltram

11 July 2017

This week I decided I wanted to dig a little deeper into some of the great techno classics from the earlier days of techno. Immediately Joey Beltram came to mind, one of the early heroes of techno, his most famous track “Energy Flash” continues to be a staple in many DJ sets today.
