JIMI CHARLES MOODY
Today’s tip comes from Jimi Charles Moody, a man who spectacularly lives up to his surname in ‘The Woman’, a fine slice of orchestral soul documenting his pain at having lent his heart to a lady who may not...
MAN OF MOON
Sometimes all you want from a song is a fuzzy, chugging beat, a subtly distorted vocal singing a distinctively melodic topline, and some lyrics about burning stuff down. If that day is today, dear reader, then you’re in luck,...
ADY SULEIMAN
Today’s tip comes from Nottingham-based urban singer-songwriter Ady Suleiman – ‘State Of Mind’ combines a jumpy off-beat groove with ambitious lyrics, taking on religion, philosophy, politics and war, all to the backdrop of Ady floating up and down a...
