Tuesday Tips
Tuesday Tip #19: Nu:Tone
Drum and Bass legend Nu:Tone, who released his 3rd LP 'Words and Pictures' in early 2011, is our Tuesday Tip for the week.
Tuesday Tip #18: Run For Cover Records
There's one thing punk does better than any other genre: diversity. This is something that Boston-based Run For Cover Records has been proving again and again since it's creation in 2004 by Jeff Casazza.
Tuesday Tip #17 – Rizzle Kicks & YouTube
YouTube is an incredible tool. It gives the power for anyone and everyone to showcase their talent to an entirely connected planet in seconds. Unfortunately it has instead become a haven for the ungifted masses, ignorant to their own atrociousness, to squawk their lungs away to the latest chart tunes on their laptop webcam. That [...]
Tuesday Tip #16 – Slow Club
Many music fans of the last few years may be familiar with the sound of Slow Club – they’ve toured with the likes of Florence and the Machine and KT Turnstall, and their music was even featured on a toothpaste advert – however, Slow Club’s melodic folky-pop is much more than just advert fodder.
Tuesday Tip #15 – Numbers / Redinho
Founded in 2009 through the combination of labels Dress 2 Sweat, Stuff Records and Wire Block, Numbers has, in no time at all, become one of the key labels for fans of UK Bass and Electronic music.
Tuesday Tip #14 – Pretty Lights
Bursting on the electro scene in 2009, Derek Vincent Smith aka Pretty Lights brings new fresh energy to the genre. Katy Farmer takes us on a tour of the up and coming electronic artist.
Tuesday Tip #13 – Live Music In Leicester
Leicester, UK. Famous for the Attenboroughs, Gary Lineker, and The Elephant Man; not so much for live music. However, Leicester’s lack of reputation for a live scene doesn’t mean there isn’t one: scratch the surface and the city holds a number of venues, from intimate basements to purpose-built concert halls, all giving great experiences.
Tuesday Tip #12 – Koji
Andrew Koji Shiraki grew up amongst the Pennsylvania hardcore scene, and over the last couple of years, has made a name for himself as a singer-songwriter/activist. While his music has such beauty and poise that it stands out purely on its own merit, be it acoustic or with a full band, Koji also works tirelessly with the organisation 'Resolve' to promote awareness of issues like child soldiers within the Lord's Resistance Army in central and east Africa through a combination of music, storytelling, media and visual art.
Tuesday Tip #11 – What happened to pirate music stations?
It seems a bizarre idea that in the not so distant past that a large chunk of the UK’s radio listenership was dedicated to illegal stations, but this was the reality of radio in the early 1960’s.
Tuesday Tip #10 – The return of Dance music to the mainstream?
Long gone have the days when all the kids at LUSH were 'raver' types. When Darude was in the charts, when everyone was singing "there's a bullet in the gun, there's a fire in your heart...", and even before that; when Prodigy ruled the day and euro-pop was king (Saturday Night anyone?).
