I used to travel by train all the time, and would always prepare music to take on the ride. A perfect soundtrack that would flow by the changing scenery, the train windows becoming a music video of all times! Whenever I go back to the most “memorable” train trips, I hear the amazing voice and […]

Commercially the biggest song in Billboard history was last years single by the Weeknd, “Blinding Lights” an enthralling 80’s super jam zooped up to the gills with blistering synths and electric drum patterns. The song was no doubt a classic hit that will remain in contention for one of the best commercial songs of the last […]
Last year broke all streaming records since records began over a decade ago. Commercial radio play listeners were though the roof across all genres and stations across multiple states and countries. It was the toughest year for many industries, but the music industry had somewhat of a revival. The disastrous effect of the pandemic haltered […]
SC.Undercover is the British R&B and Pop artist who has recently been on the radar of bloggers far and wide. But why? Back in 2017 “Broke and Sober” and “5AM on the Eastside” the artists first two singles found their way onto a number of Youtube channels. The songs received acclaim by various music enthusiasts. […]
I don’t typically remember celebrity deaths, certainly not where I was or what cup of tea I was making. Michael Jackson was an anomaly only because I had a paper round back then and had to hand deliver his pigment-stricken death mask through letterboxes across my town courtesy of The Sun. I’ll never forgive them […]
The ween.net website defines the Boognish as follows: “A Demon God who has appeared thrice to the prophet brothers Dean and Gene Ween. It resides somewhere outside the orbital buffer. Tradition has it that this entity holds a sceptor in each hand: that of wealth and that of power.” I’m not a religious man but […]
To those who know, they know. If you ask a Radiohead fan to describe Kid A you’ll probably get a different response every time. Serene, transcendent, manic, discordant, and well, just about every other word that attempts to describe the ineffable. Pretty broad and abstract I know. However, they’ll also probably agree on one thing, […]
Queen has gained major popularity alongside the years not only for amazing songs such as “Under Pressure”, or “We Will Rock You”, but also for Freddie Mercury’s amazing stage presence. Since Freddie’s passing, actor and singer Adam Levine took his place in the band, and even if his vocals are impressive, there isn’t going to […]
As time goes by, it is not strange to notice that a Latin-American rhythm pops up in more than just a modern song, because more and more artists are trying to change their own image and do some sort of collab with other artists. One of the most well-known artists that did a collab were […]
How music had taken some influence from other timelines along the years
Led Zeppelin | Stairway to Heaven
When you think about music, the first thing that may pop on your head is how much it has changed throughout the years. Music evolved from classical Beethoven to classic rock Led Zeppelin… and it doesn’t stop there either. With the coming of pop music, many artists decided to jump on the wagon and decided […]
There’s a great relatability in a working class person singing songs about their hometown. Especially one with a way with words who can create a captivating story in a three minute song. Think early Oasis or the fantastic “Word Gets Round” by the Stereophonics. But it’s a relatability that often means their music diminishes or […]

I remember over the years many people who have commented about listening to downbeat music, asking why you’d want to. Which I guess I understand, I mean it’s a valid question, why would you want to listen to something that isn’t exactly going to put you in the mood to be a little ray of […]
