Saiphon and “Another Lifetime” – A Ballad of Memory And Timing

Back When the Songs Came First and Everything Else Followed Don’t know what cats can play. Never thought about it. But what I know right now is that Saiphon comes from Another Lifetime, and they’re probably the only ones who can tell us what cats cannot play at all. That earlier song title, Cats Can’t Play Guitar, still makes me smile. I love that student-band spark, half joke, half instinct. The kind of starting point you don’t overthink , yet […]

Ski Trax Drops I’m Just Here For The Après, the Après-Ski Anthem

Après-ski started as a practical pause. Skis off, boots loosened, a beer before heading home. But somewhere along the way, that pause turned into the main event. Sun dropping behind the ridge, music leaking from terrace speakers. Cheeks still cold and hands wrapped around something warm or dangerously cold. I’ve always loved that moment. That’s exactly where I’m Just Here For The Après by Ski Trax plants its flag. Sunshine, Snow, and Spilled Drinks Written during bluebird days in the […]

Tahani “17” Turns Millennial Frustration into an Indie Pop Release

Growing Up, Clocking In, Still Feeling 17 I’m old enough to know better and still young enough to feel seventeen when the alarm goes off. Bills change, faces change, jobs stack up - but the restless stays. That’s the headspace I was in, close to midnight, listening to Tahani and her latest release, 17. Honestly, I don’t miss being seventeen. I miss the clarity. And this song understands that difference better than most tracks I’ve heard lately.  Tahani frames that […]

Take Me Away by Jules Davidson & Rijøbi – A Dance Winter Escape

A January Song to Take You Away I heard Take Me Away during one of those January days when London feels stuck in grey. The urge to look beyond it all starts to press in. Jules Davidson and Rijøbi, both London-based, join forces as singer-songwriter and producer, shaping a vocal dance release that carries a quiet itch to pack a bag and disappear for a while. Released on 16 January 2026, Take Me Away plays directly into that seasonal headspace […]

Indie Pop

Harriet Perring And The “Mirror Talk” Finds Truth in Reflection

Mirror Talk Meets You at Close Distance For years, I’ve been blessed doing this job and finding such a pleiade of authentic, goose-bumping songs - especially when a song stops being a performance and starts acting like a confession. Mirror Talk by Harriet Perring goes right there. If you ask me, the track holds the weight of something you remember clearly and feel twice as hard. The story behind Mirror Talk comes from a relationship shaped by hesitation and desire, […]

MV & AB96 Drop “Party” – Two Voices in the Afro-UK Scene

When Afrobeats Light Up London Nights What’s happening in London rarely stays in London, and the Party by MV and AB96 proves it without trying too hard. Released on 25 December 2025, the track drags their Nigerian and Ghanaian roots all the way around my speakers - and honestly, my neighbours can file the appeal later. Records with a good story at their core keep piling up in my favourite charts. It’s always been that way. I’ll get into how […]

Andy Smythe Leviathan

Indie Folk

Andy Smythe Releases Leviathan as a Quiet Revolution Signal

“Andy Smythe uses Leviathan to question who we trust when pressure builds.” When Andy Smythe talks about Leviathan, he goes straight for the big questions. The world seems pulled again toward simple certainties, loud loyalties, and the habit of giving up independent thought. It shows up in conversations, headlines, timelines. Leviathan responds by asking who holds power, who controls it, and why the same structures keep returning when pressure rises. Leviathan lives inside the wider world of Quiet Revolution, set for […]

Layla Kaylif Revisits I’m Afraid of Americans – A Cultural Reframing

“There’s a sense of time and cultural weight running through this release.” On the tenth anniversary of David Bowie’s passing, Layla Kaylif releases her interpretation of I’m Afraid of Americans. Wow… the timing? If you ask me, it feels deliberate. Almost ceremonial. This release feels like a millstone - heavy, cracked by time, with history hanging in its fractures. A cultural gesture first, never a decorative move. The Song, Reworked Produced in Malmö, the track reframes the original Bowie and […]

Mi Sangre Baila by Ivelisse Del Carmen – Heritage in Motion

Between Homeland and Elsewhere Written from the space between homeland and elsewhere, Mi Sangre Baila speaks from the vivid reality of a Puerto Rican life shaped by distance. After more than twenty years away from Puerto Rico, Ivelisse Del Carmen found the word that finally made sense of that distance: diaspora. I felt the song’s weight of recognition embracing me like a warm blanket on a cold day. Maybe because I’m part of a diaspora too, one of millions living […]
