I have collated a list of my top 40 songs of every year since 2010. That means 400 songs sit in a playlist of my ‘Best of the Decade’.

100 Plays Later is a series that is exactly how it sounds. I try to explain how I’ve managed to reach a century of plays on songs you may not even recognise. Or explain what it’s like to listen back to my favourite songs for the 238th time.  Fembot – Robyn – 226 Plays Think … Continue reading →

Robyn and Röyksopp are releasing an album: 5 reasons you should be excited.

1) Its Robyn! Songs as good as Be Mine, With Every Heartbeat, Show Me Love, Dancing On My Own or Konichiwa Bitches (I could go on all day) rarely appear this often in an artist’s discography. She hasn’t dropped the ball yet, despite numerous times when she could have, so you should have faith that … Continue reading →
