Daily electricity to load your sonic batteries…

31 May 2020
Brand new single ‘‘SPLIT DOWN THE MIDDLE‘ by London based songstress NUALA is pretty special. A sparkling earworm that triggers your dance instinct instantly. It all starts with a careless feel-good whistle putting a gratifying smile on your face. From there on it’s party time.
The effervescent mix of funk, reggae, R&B, rap and a tremendously catching chorus raises your adrenalin production. You just can’t resist to sway your hips in a sensual way to the heartening beat. Oh, and that live in the moment whistle popping up regularly invites
you to go out and stroll with a relaxing mood in the street. A welcome relief in these bizarre lockdown days.

LIAM GALLAGHER – MTV Unplugged Album Out In June – Here’s ‘SAD SONG’…
Reveries for the laziest day of the week…
31 May 2020
I had no clue that the unplugged MTV concerts are still happening. Back in the 90s,
many artists stripped their songs to the bone on MTV with Nirvana‘s performance
as the most famous one, immortalized into a brilliant record.
Rock hero LIAM GALLAGHER will join the long list. On 17th June the acoustic result
of his MTV concert will be issued. One of the tracks is the fervid ballad SAD SONG
which appeared on OASIS‘s debut LP as a bonus on the vinyl version, back in 1994.
Come on Liam…

10 Molotov Cocktails – COLD MEAT With Furious Debut LP ‘HOT AND FLUSTERED’
30 May 2020
Band: COLD MEAT
Who: Four furious punks from Perth, Australia led
by stormy spit and sneer frontwoman Ashley Ramsey
Album: HOT AND FLUSTERED
Smashing debut LP via Helta Sketla Records
Released: 20 March 2020
Pitchfork says: “The Perth punks are more interested in recording immediate, energetic punk rock than becoming experimentalists, and they’ve certainly nailed the former. Cold Meat have much more than shock value on their mind. Cold Meat’s sense of humor is what saves them from the trappings of self-serious street punk, but it’s Ramsey’s outrage that keeps their blood pumping.”
Keywords: trash and slash punk, red-hot-blooded knockouts, Ashley scream Ramsey, razor-sharp uppercuts, kamikaze pace, razor blade racket, Bikini Kill on speed, stunners,
abso-bloody-lutely garage dynamite, bang-on bangers, ace jackhammers. mental heat!
Key tracks: all 10 Molotov cocktails
