Entry #51 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: August and September 2025 (a.k.a Hold your nose, take the plunge…)

If you’re not aware, I work at a radio station called Spark Sunderland and have done for some years ever since I was in the middle of my undergrad in 2019. Right now, I do a show called Beautiful Ones, broadcasting an hour of Britpop every Saturday midday, but as of late I’ve also foundContinue reading “Entry #51 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: August and September 2025 (a.k.a Hold your nose, take the plunge…)”

Entry #49 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: June and July 2025 (a.k.a The Dimery Files, part one)

So there was no monthly entry for June because I had a pretty heavy time in terms of work, meaning I couldn’t really be arsed to sit down and flick some music on. That being said, I did have time for one particular single and it is: The Molotovs, Today’s Gonna Be Our Day WhenContinue reading “Entry #49 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: June and July 2025 (a.k.a The Dimery Files, part one)”

Entry #48 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: May 2025 (a.k.a Sequelitis and Singles)

I wanted to try and establish a theme for this month. If you don’t know, Sequelitis is a term reserved for sequels to an artist’s magnum opus that don’t quite make the grade. Sometimes it’s because it went in a totally different direction and hit a wall, sometimes the artist in question just gave up,Continue reading “Entry #48 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: May 2025 (a.k.a Sequelitis and Singles)”

Entry #46 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: April 2025 (a.k.a Rekindling Affairs)

When I started doing these once-a-month entries, I had set myself a rule that I would only talk about a song or an album in 100 words or less. Couldn’t do it this time, I had so much to say regarding this month’s selections that confining myself to 100 words was an impossibility. I’d sayContinue reading “Entry #46 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: April 2025 (a.k.a Rekindling Affairs)”

Entry #45 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: March 2025 (a.k.a This is a regular thing now, so naturally I’m posting this three days late)

I’ve been on more familiar ground for the past month, not straying too far from the beaten path as work becomes more intense the closer summer approaches. That familiarity can keep you stable and lord knows music is good at harnessing your emotions in this day and age. Anyway, I guess that’s me saying inContinue reading “Entry #45 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: March 2025 (a.k.a This is a regular thing now, so naturally I’m posting this three days late)”
