    Songs for Sabotage feat. Blood Handsome – “Loaded”

    Loaded was one of those songs that fell out of the sky; it was written in an afternoon. We had plans for Blood Handsome to come by and work on something, but didn’t have any ideas to show him the morning of… so we came up with the main instrumental loop and vocal hook about…

  • Carley Varley “Miss Me?”

    Carley Varley “Miss Me?”

    “[The song] was written a few years ago now; I wrote it about a friend who had moved on with their life, and after we used to be together everyday, it felt like they almost didn’t really care that I was quite absent from their life anymore. The song could easily be about a break-up…

    Coral Palms infectious & vibrant on “Something In The Air”

    “A lot of the themes in our lyrics revolve around youthful disarray, angst and of course romance, but musically, we really just wanted to make tunes that we know we’d bop to at festivals or at a party.” – Coral Palms

  • Graham Coe – “I Love Your Way”

    Graham Coe – “I Love Your Way”

    “This song was mostly written when I was away on holidays in the beautiful County of Donegal, Ireland. My wife is actually from there so I think she was good inspiration for this song.It’s a song about romance, contentment, love and security.” Graham Coe

  • Gavan Waldby’s new single “Why Don´t You Care About Me”

    Gavan Waldby’s new single “Why Don´t You Care About Me”

    “I had the chord progression worked out on my guitar. There was something in the rhythm that spoke to me with the words “Why don’t, why don’t” . Then came the phrase “Care about me”. In that moment suddenly I was a teenager again, remembering what desire was like at that age. Passionate, painful, wonderful,…

    The Fades ft Les “Fruitbar” Carter’s amusing new single “People In General”

    “The Fades have always been renowned for raucous and intense live shows, so we wanted to try and capture that with this record. We went into Brixton Hill Studios to use analogue equipment to do the tracks as close to live as we could. We were joined by a load of friends from other bands…

  • The Miller Test “No Venus Moves”

    The Miller Test “No Venus Moves”

    Landing somewhere between the 80s pop-soul of When Doves Cry/Billie Jean and the morose mumble-lyricism of later Leonard Cohen, all hooked together with two rounds of Stonesy doo-doo-doos, “No Venus Moves” by The Miller Test could be the theme song for a millenarian cult, blending troublingly bleak observations with moments of pulsating pop exhilaration.

  • Charlotte Hall- “I Feel Alive”

    Charlotte Hall- “I Feel Alive”

    I wrote this song around the same time as an earlier release “Apathy”. Whilst writing both songs I was going through a “Quarter Life Crisis” during lockdown. Whilst writing “Apathy” I was in the depths of it and couldn’t see any way out of the situation I was in. “I Feel Alive” came to my…

  • Jorge Ostos “Dream”

    Jorge Ostos “Dream”

    “Initially the idea was to have my wife sing the song, but for various reasons this didn’t work out, which led me to contact Tim Condor, a very versatile singer from the North West of England, who has also been involved in various projects internationally. The result I think is a well crafted production with…

  • Eddie Cohn- Dystopian Days

    Eddie Cohn- Dystopian Days

    After my last record, I wasn’t sure if or when the creative bug may strike again. I started to write a book, I became a yoga teacher and I started to DJ around LA. I was feeling a lot of satisfaction with these other creative outlets but then 2020 happened and we were all forced…

  • LLC “One In A Million”

    LLC “One In A Million”

    “It was written quite quickly & is about picking yourself up. To try & make a (positive) difference in the world, no matter what it takes. And that you can always “count on me” (4, 3, 2) to help get you through!” LLC

    Jacqueline Loor’s inspiring debut album “Show Them”

    “Show Them” by Jacqueline Loor, it’s loaded with emotions coming as they are. I bet it will be a change most refreshing especially for people who feel tired of false happiness instilled by everything.
