Song Of The Month July 2025

So hey ho been a long time blogging but that’s because life events have got in the way but that hasn’t stopped me scouring the interwebs for new songs to blog about. And so it came to pass I was on Twitch when I young scamp called Enviticus popped up with this utterly epic song:

It’s a curious thing, isn’t it? When you meld Bring Me The Horizon with saxophone you get something delivered with such understated power and panache one wonders why there isn’t more sax in this genre; I think you’ll find the juxtaposition quite compelling.

As a side note, lots of folks use Twitch as a affirmation for their music; it’s empowering and important, as Enviticus explains “from the 20 years I’ve been making music, I never anticipated this. I was ready to walk away, but this community brought me back”.

I’m glad you didn’t Enviticus, so very glad you didn’t.

Song Of The Month May 2025

It’s been a long time music blogs fans and that’s because I’ve been away on top secret spying missions and being generally recalcitrant and remiss with the music blog. But along the way I stumbled across this gem via Chris Hawkins on BBC Radio 6 who describe Pattern Perception’s new single One More Hit as “something new to fall in love with”. I’m inclined to agree; think sultry, soulful, downtempo melancholic silk. Think some other metaphors if you need to. They’ll work. But this is stunning work via ‘Dave from Birmingham’, who sounds like a plumber who knows your divorced mum. I digress…
