Tuesday Ten: 077: Tracks of the Month (June 2009)
It’s time for my run-down of ten of the best tracks I’ve heard in the past month.
Category: /Tuesday Ten
Now ten years old and counting, my regular series of Tuesday posts takes in new music and sometimes rather random categories.
Tuesday Ten: 076: The Best of 2009 So Far (Tracks)
And now individual tracks..
Tuesday Ten: 075: The Best of 2009 So Far (Albums)
I don’t usually do this, but as I’ve remembered – and there has been a fair amount of stuff to recommend – I’m taking a break from the usual Tuesday Ten subjects to do a rundown of ten albums and ten songs worth hearing from 2009 so far, as we reach the halfway point of […]
/Tuesday Ten/074/Music, My Dad and Me
It was, of course, Father’s Day this Sunday just gone, and for this week’s /Tuesday Ten I thought it appropriate to use this theme. I think my voracious appetite for music comes from my dad – ever since I can remember there has been a steady flow of “new” music into the house, in a […]
Tuesday Ten: 073: Crimes
A list that seemed to grow every time I even thought about it, this one – songs about crime. Perhaps I wasn’t specific enough in my initial criteria, but hell, I’ve got so many I’m going to be covering more than ten this week.
/Tuesday Ten /072 /Lust
This week was going to be a run-through of songs involving one or more of the seven deadly sins, which many of you may remember me asking about a few weeks back. But finding a selection I was happy with has been very hard indeed, so this week I’m concentrating on just one of the […]
Tuesday Ten: 071: Tracks of the Month (May 2009)
Another new month (where is this year going?!?), so time for my usual monthly roundup of ten tracks you should hear. If there are other things I should hear, please tell me…
/Tuesday Ten/070/The Sound of Summer?
Driving down to Cambridge on a warm summer’s day last Sunday got Daisy and I thinking about songs that we associate with the summer. Certainly, there are some songs that simply “work” better, or suit my mood more, when the sun is shining (and likewise similar happens with other songs during the winter).
Tuesday Ten: 069: Tracks of the Month (April 2009)
Time for my usual monthly roundup.
/Tuesday Ten/068/Religion
With it being Easter this weekend, I thought it perhaps apt that I turn to the subject of religion for this week’s TT. Although not unexpected, perhaps, with the music that I listen to, it proved somewhat difficult to find that many songs that cast religion in a positive light. Still, I did find the […]
Tuesday Ten: 067: Tracks of the Month (March 2009)
Only just got this collated in time, but it's time for my usual ten tracks of the past month. Lots of new stuff to cover, so let's get on with it.
/Tuesday Ten/066/Best Live
I’m sure I’ve at least mentioned these in passing before, but I can’t find it (the perils of using titles to posts that don’t actually tell me all that much when searching for things!), so it’s perhaps overdue that I make this into a Tuesday Ten, especially with such an interesting response on Facebook and […]
Tuesday Ten: 065: Places
This was a late decision to do a Tuesday Ten this week, and it ended up being a list I had far too many suggestions for – again.
Tuesday Ten: 064: Do You Remember The First Time?
As I said last week, I have suddenly had a short flush of inspiration for these Tuesday Tens at the moment. This one has taken me weeks to collate, gave me lots of ideas, and perhaps even more music to re-evaluate. This week it's about debut albums, and in particular ones I really like or […]
/Tuesday Ten/063/Robots
After last week saw the end of a lull in my Tuesday Ten postings, I’m hoping this month to actually do one each week. This week’s was inspired by the mention on Popjustice (complete with sample) of Röyksopp‘s forthcoming single The Girl and The Robot, which appears to be something of a rather brilliant pop song, and then there […]
Tuesday Ten: 062: Tracks of the Month (February 2009)
A new month, so back to the usual monthly round-up of the tracks I love right now.
Tuesday Ten: 061: Comedians
Comedians have always influenced music in various ways, but no-one seems to have been sampled, remixed or simply been such an inspiration to various musicians like Bill Hicks – well, with the exception of Lenny Bruce, perhaps.
Tuesday Ten: 060: Blastbeats
Moved from Tuesday for this week only, and with good reason – thanks to the original light-hearted suggestion by music blogger Erich Keller, it's Blastbeat Celebration Day today. This got coverage even in the Guardian, and it's probably no coincidence that the new issue of Terrorizer – who were the ones who originally championed Keller's […]
Tuesday Ten: 059: Tracks of the Month (January 2009)
A bit later than normal, but here are my "tracks of the month" for this month. The next one of these will now be at the start of March.
Tuesday Ten: 058: 2008’s Voyage of Discovery
For perhaps the first year in a while, 2008 was very much about new music for me at least. Or, put another away, new musical discoveries. Some of these artists were new, some of them were not, and others I had totally missed along the way – and various people have prompted me to give […]
