Cerulean is a two-track collection, a short journey through peacefulness with a resounding sense of depth and consideration about it. The title piece is as quiet as it is overwhelming – to listen at volume is to let these layers and details really wash over you in a subtly powerful manner.

This week’s episode welcomes the wonderful Pete Murphy onto the show. Pete has been writing songs and making music for several years now, he’s a phenomenal songwriter with a brilliantly unique approach to the art form, and he recently released his latest album By The Way Of The Devil, which he wrote and recorded within a … Continued
Fusing a calming and colourful ambiance with a thick, mellow hip hop beat, the artist presents a contemporary balance between rap and melody, all the while throwing references to confidence and hard work into the mix in an inspiring, energizing manner.

A stunning project, his best yet without a doubt, and as always – a total joy to write about. There’s a classic or timeless feel to the entire playlist and it’s well worth losing yourself within for a while.
The energy of the track is sky high and the recording allows the band’s strengths to really stand tall and appeal to our inner party addicts.

Shreya Preeti leads with a smooth and soulful vocal on this alternative pop-RnB fusion single Junkyard.
