/Tuesday Ten /512 /We’re In This Together
The final /Tuesday Ten of 2022 is, at least in part, about togetherness. Over the last few years, the idea of banding together to help, to achieve and make better has in some quarters at least gained traction again.
/Countdown/2010s/Tracks /180-161
Continuing the process of wrapping up the last decade before it disappears too far into the rearview mirror, this is the second part of the best tracks of the 2010s. This has been an interesting, and memory-laden trip doing this list. I’ve dredged up a few memories, reconnected with a few songs I’d not heard […]
Tuesday Ten: 227: Tracks of the Month (March 2015)
Another tough month, balanced out by a number of good moments that all-in reduced the amount of time I had to write about music. I’ve consumed more than enough (and been sent a fair bit, too), mind, and the result was this weeks Tracks of the Month, where I actually had far more than ten […]
/Countdown/2013/Tracks
2013 has been a really, really strong year for music.
/Tuesday Ten/181/Fight The Power
In a time where inequality is rising faster than in a long while, austerity is all the rage (despite the warnings that this is only making things worse), and the various results of the Euro crisis, to mention but a few things, I’d perhaps expect a rise in political comment from music or even comedy, […]
Into the Pit: 173: Thee Faction + Joanne Joanne – Live at Buffalo Bar N1 – 22-May 2013
Sometimes the most interesting gigs, the ones that give you a new perspective, are not in large venues, or at public gigs, but at small events that you weren't even sure you were attending until late on. As happened here, with a Thee Faction show that happened to be a member of the band's birthday, […]
Tuesday Ten: 173: Tracks of the Month (April 2013)
First post in a while, yep, been really busy again. On schedule, mind, here is this month’s ten tracks you should hear.
Tuesday Ten: 171: 2012 redux: Missed from the lists
Yeah, so it’s a while into 2013 now, but frankly there were quite a few things I managed not to mention in the various roundups that were great during 2012, and indeed some, or most of these went unmentioned by me last year. So, here are ten that I really need to do justice to…
Tuesday Ten: 162: Tracks of the Month (August 2012)
Another month gone already? Time for another ten tracks you should hear, then.
Into the Pit: 119: The DDR of R’n’B club – The Half Moon – 16-February 2012
If nothing else, I couldn’t suggest that this night didn’t offer some variety in terms of the bands onstage. Going from garage rock, to political polemics, to deeply emotional, electro-rock. Kind of.
