The Future Bass Is Bright
So, last week I gave myself an injury that has made walking, sitting, working, and general life pretty hard. My physio delivered some heartbreaking news and so, to try and cheer myself up, I have finally returned to my monthly mixes. I know, I am crap at keeping on top of it, but hey! I only missed March, to be fair, so I'm not doing that bad...I've decided to give you guys a little bit of Future Bass education. I know this genre isn't for everyone, but I love it, so I'm going to share my love with you....

11 Breakup Songs to Get You Through Hell
Breakups are the worst. Especially, when you are the one being dumped. Especially, when it happens out of the blue. Especially, when it comes after a long exhausting relationship. Especially, when there is a third person involved. Especially... Do I have to continue?

Album Interludes You Need to Listen To
I have a brother trying to break into the music industry. He spends hours and hours streaming, searching, and creating pieces every day. When we used to live together, he would burst in my room at three or four in morning to show me his latest favorite album or song. Years and years of him exposing me to obscure and well-known artists have led me to the conclusion that I really, fucking, love interludes. I'm a sap for the short, emotional and sometimes odd songs that break up or connect an album. While some of these interludes are more well-known than others, all of these songs are worth a serious listen.

Top 10 Paramore Songs
This is a list that has the top 10 Paramore songs in my opinion. If you disagree or want to share your own favorites, let me know on Twitter. A little backstory on the band before I dive in; Paramore is a band that was formed in Tennessee in 2004. The band were all in their teens when the band was formed, and have released five studio albums in the time that they have been in the music industry. They have had a few different members and have lost a few along the way, but now the band consists of Hayley Williams (lead vocals), Taylor York (lead guitar), and Zac Farro (drummer). Now I’m going to tell you my top 10 favorite Paramore songs.

Untarnished Songs by Bands Who Are Over-Played on Radio
We all hate it when our favorite bands and artists become too "popular," and you become sick and tired of hearing the same song on every single radio station. Bands like Twenty-One Pilots and Imagine Dragons are victims of this. Some will stay true fans and still love all songs written by these artists, but I personally have stopped listening to the radio so that songs don’t become ruined by the Main Stream Radio Stations. Here are some of my top songs that have been untouched by those radio stations, by some of our favorite popular artists and bands.

February Mix for SISTER Collective
SO… it’s the last day of the month, it’s snowing pretty hardcore here in London, and I am going to share with you my February mix. It is pretty special. It’s probably one of my favourite mixes I’ve ever done and it’s for the legendary Carly Wilford and her SISTER collective. Usually when I’m asked to do a mix, I stress about it endlessly, and I end up doing what I think someone wants to hear rather than what I would play if someone gave me free reign. I did my usual stressing, then I realised I had to just be me. Fuck what I think people want to hear, this is the music I love, the music I play. This mix is probably the best representation of one of my sets I think I have ever done. It is a journey through Dubstep, hip hop, grime, and trap. It is a seamless genre stepper, if I do say so myself.

10 Songs That Feel Like Spring
Call me biased, but spring has always been my favorite time of year. Maybe it's because of that cliché sense of renewal. Maybe because my birthday occurs in the season. Maybe it's because I have genetic seasonal depression and spring turns everything from sepia to color again. Or maybe I just like seeing flowers everywhere.

A Musical History: 1980
Following on from my recent piece about growing up in the 80s, I wanted to share my favourite music from each year in a series of posts. Going back like this, for me anyway, shows the progress of bands and artists in terms of sounds and success. It also shows how music adopts techniques and sounds and they become "mainstream" and a something else takes its place as the radical, new sound.
