jakob ogawa - 'all your love'

Norwegian music prodigy Jakob Ogawa's debut single sees summery vibes overlaid with a languid style that makes for a great track.

mark ronson feat daniel merriweather - 'stop me'

I heard this track on Sunday in a pub by Clapham Junction as my mate and I took a detour on our way to watch Brighton versus Brentford on Sunday. And what a match that turned out to be. Great track too. I haven't heard it in years.

superfood - 'double dutch'

It doesn't get much better than this. A superb new track from Superfood.

khidja - 'kraftfeld'

Fresh off the press, this is a very dark techno track from Khidja.

einar stray orchestra - 'as far as i'm concerned'

I can't wait for the new album's release. Really looking forward to it but fortunately they've released their second track from it and it's a barn-stormer.

john holt - 'strange things'

Taking this music blog back over 40 years, here's a superb track from the legendary John Holt.

homeshake - 'khmlwugh'

Taking the tempo down with this track, so laid back that it's positively horizontal. Great stuff from Homeshake here.

ron gallo - 'young lady you're scaring me'

Bloody hell, what a great tune! No messing, it's in your face and staying there. Brilliant stuff.

jens lekman - 'what's that perfume you wear?'

The new Jens Lekman album 'Life Will See you Now' is an absolute belter. The light and frothy pace belies the dark humour running throughout bringing back memories of The Beautiful South or Orange Juice.

amber arcades - 'it changes'

She's been touring with Nada Surf but has returned to the studio to record this track. It has a great garage-rock feel and bags of energy. Her name is one to watch.

cult of dom keller - 'all i need is not now'

I do like the bleak psychedlia that Nottingham band The Cult of Dom Keller purvey.

dj essdee - 'the mix of a dying man'

Working form home has its disadvantages but a big advantage is being able to play music loudly. This mix for example is awesome and needs to be played loudly.

worry dolls - 'endless road'

This slice of country-folk comes from London via Liverpool and a lovely track it is too.

shannon wright - 'the thirst'

Wow! This is quite some record. 'Haunting' doesn't begin to describe it.

moon duo - 'creepin''

If full-blooded psychedelic guitar riffs and long solos are your thing then you will love the new Moon Duo album, it's an absolute belter. Apparently there's a part 2 out later this year too, to look forward to.

surfer blood - 'dino jay'

Fresh off the press here's the first track from the new album 'Snowdonia'. What a cracking tune.

aquilo - 'silhouette'

The jury's out for me on this track. Parts of it are quite beautiful but then other parts sound like identikit vocoder. Maybe I'll give it a bit more attention.
