Most Listened To

Last year I wrote about my favourite new tracks each and every month, there were so many, it was a lot of fun to listen to and collate all these new bits of music. For 2018, I thought I'd switch it up a bit and focus on what I am actually listening to the most.

Using Obscurify I found out the top 10 songs I listened in the six weeks leading up to 08/02/18 and have written a little spiel on each below. I find any and all Spotify data completely intriguing so I spend far too much time on this site.

1) ALL I HAVE - CHARLIE BARNES

I'm a really big fan of Charlie, he's such a talented musician and songwriter and this track is where he really shines. 'All I Have' is the first single from his upcoming album Oceanography, which comes out in a few short weeks. If you like upbeat acoustics, this guy is for you.

I recently interviewed Charlie for work, he is very genuinely one of the kindest and most thoughtful people I've had a chat with.

Catch April's post here.

Soundtrack to our messed up world

To not beat around the bush, our world is pretty f*cked up at the minute, although it's always been a bit of a terrible place.

Now more than ever, we exist in uncertain times. At least this is the most uncertain and strange period of time since I've been on Earth anyway. (Not referring to my birth, I'm referring to the time my home planet dropped me off to never pick me up)

All over the world people are using their voices to express their anger, confusion, sadness, shock, sorrow, guilt, determination. We live in uncertain times. 

Music is an art form, one used by so many to capture a moment in time, to capture whatever the hell we live in right now. 

Here's a couple of tracks appropriate for the current state of things. State to be interpreted in the colloquial meaning of 'fucked up state'
