All the Playlists

Dancing in the Moonlight – King Harvest

16 June 2017

To me, this song captures the essence of the seventies. It’s whimsical, magical, ethereal, groovy, light/dark, cold/warm. The Wurlitzer electric piano that’s used throughout the song gives it a jovial, yet melancholy feel. The song sounds like a carnival rag dipped in teardrops.

Werewolf – Fiona Apple

16 June 2017

I know what you’re thinking.

“How cliche. The first song she picks is by Fiona Apple? What is she? Some kind of angsty, male-bashing feminist?” 

Well, not exactly.

Motorcycle – Rumble Strips

14 June 2017

This song is the perfect playlist starter. It starts with a cymbal and little by little drums fade in and trumpets giving no clue of what to expect from the song. There you get the attention of the listener.

Ami – Adra

13 June 2017

Every week I share with you all stories throughout my journey as a raver and DJ that includes music that inspires me on this path. However this week I’ve decided to share with you all something even closer to home by presenting you a track from my label Occultists. 

Hard as Stone – Duncan Reed

12 June 2017

Hard As Stone was written about a realization that it didn’t matter where you were in life as long as you were comfortable with the people around you. The story behind the song was about getting lost in the mountains when mist came down but not really caring as I’d become content with who I was with.

I Hung It Up – Junior Brown

10 June 2017

If you don’t know Junior Brown, well here’s your introduction. Armed with his Git Steel Junior does it for me with his cool blend of Country / Surf Guitar .

Anywhere but Here – Grace Askew

10 June 2017

It’s not only the music and Grace’s sexy southern drawl that made me add this track but her tale of wanting to skip town.

The Passenger – Iggy Pop

10 June 2017

We all love Iggy Pop, well I do.

This track takes me back to some amazing road trips that I had with a close mate, who tragically passed a few years ago.

Abattoir Blues – Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

10 June 2017

We recently saw Nick Cave at the University in Brisbane, Australia. He plays a big part of my music diet and just had to share this one in particular.

Chick Habit – The Hillbilly Moon Explosion

10 June 2017

Being a Big Americana and Rockabilly fan I had to throw a fun track like this into the playlist.

It makes me want to grab my Gal and Crew, load up the Cadillac, fill it full of booze and hit the open roads.

Fault Line – Black Rebel Motorcycle Club

10 June 2017

I’ve been getting into these guys over the last few years, Howl would have to be a favorite of mine and this track is one of the standouts for me.

Keep Going – Featuring Tony Joe White – Boozoo Bajou

10 June 2017

I’m a big Tony Joe fan andhappened to stumble across this track. I have recently got a taste for Dub and Loops and I fell in love with this from the first time I heard it.
