After last week’s filth and dirt, let us wipe the slate and this week, clean things up.

/Welcome to the Future /260 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 03-Nov 2023
We’re nearing the end of the year, which means I’m now considering the best of 2023, and releases for the new year are now continuing to filter through too. This post is a roundup of (relevant to this site) new and upcoming music, a nod to upcoming events and livestreams both from this website and […]
/Welcome to the Future /256 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 08-Sep 2023
An unexpected heatwave this week has reduced activity perhaps, but here are this week’s new releases, things to look forward to and the usual updated events listing. This post is a roundup of (relevant to this site) new and upcoming music, a nod to upcoming events and livestreams both from this website and others, and […]
/Tuesday Ten /520 /Yes
Yes. A word that can be affirmation, confirmation, or exclamation.
/Tuesday Ten/412/Senses Working Overtime/Smell
Just over two years ago, I asked for suggestions around songs involving the senses. Needless to say, this ended up being a gargantuan thread, with the easy decision made to split it out. /Tuesday Ten/412 /Senses Working Overtime/Smell /Playlists /Playlists/Spotify /Playlists/YouTube /Tuesday Ten/Lockdown /401/Isolation /402/Pumping Iron /405/No Good Advice /406/Warning! /408/Conspiracy /409/Lazy /410/Senses/Taste So, this […]
/Tuesday Ten/358/Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word
I’m British, so of course, I say sorry. Buzzfeed came up with 65 ways Brits say sorry, there are endless jokes about it, but the reality is, I and many others say sorry far more than we need to.
/Countdown/1980s/Tracks /40-21
I actually started this 80s rundown a couple of years back, but life and other things have rather got in the way. So, a little bit of spare time has allowed me to get this finished. Without further ado, then, let’s get on with it.
Tuesday Ten: 199: As Seen On TV
The television appearance is an important part of the promotional armoury. Not a video (I’ve covered these in various posts before), but simply a live* rendition of a current song that maybe gets a band out to an audience that otherwise might not know about them. I’ve also excluded TV-aired festival appearances, too. One thing, […]
/Tuesday Ten/178/The Bucket List
During my recent Depeche Mode live review, I noted that they were one of those bands that I’d been waiting a long, long time to see, and indeed, over the past few years, I’ve made considerable inroads into a long list of similar bands. Particular shows of note included Laibach at the Tate Modern last […]
Tuesday Ten: 132: nineteenninetyone
I seem to have been delving into my musical past, and in particular the nineties, an awful lot so far in 2011. I’m not exactly sure why: perhaps it’s just been discovering a handful of nights in London that cover parts of that past that I’m still fond of – so Nuis@nce and Louder Than […]
/Tuesday Ten /124 /Food & Drink
I was a little surprised, I have to admit, when I realised just how many songs my partner and I could think of that reference, are tenuously linked to, or are actually about this week’s subject. So, what am I on about this week? Food and drink. That is, the non-alcoholic variety (I’ve covered alcohol […]
Tuesday Ten: 107: Stuck on Repeat
When I first thought about it, this was inspired by a seemingly never-ending parade of bands who seem to have come up with nothing new themselves that I keep hearing.
/Countdown/1990s/Albums /60-41
Onto part three of my 90s album run-down. There is again a Spotify playlist accompaniment to it, which is only missing a couple of entries (it's remarkable how much is now on Spotify, actually!).
/Countdown/1990s/Tracks /40-21
Last but one – those just outside the top twenty.
/Tuesday Ten/010/Cover Versions
I've probably done this before, but a long while back, and I'm pretty sure not as part of the TT. So, here are ten (more) cover versions worthy of attention of some sort. When done well, I love the idea of the cover version. They sometimes help to open your eyes to a song you […]
