  • Tune Of The Week: 01/07/2011: Maverick Sabre

    Despite there being calls from my sister to have Mundy’s July as this week’s Tune Of  The Week, I’ve decided to go with this, Maverick Sabre‘s current single, Let Me Go. If you’re going to Oxegen, make sure to check him out. Here’s the new video.

  • Interview with Ant West from Futures

    futuresFutures is a four piece band from Buckinghamshire signed to Mercury Records, formed from the ashes of ‘Tonight is Goodbye’. While still unsigned, the band’s debut seven track mini album ‘The Holiday’, was given away as a cover mounted CD with Rock Sound magazine.

    The band play Academy 2 in Dublin on May 28th. I caught up with singer, Ant West, while he was having breakfast and chatted about their upcoming album, Fruit ‘n Fibre and yes, even Gina G.

    Your first gig as Futures sold out, do you think that was fall out from your previous band or had you managed to build a new fanbase in that time?

    ‘I think it probably was but I think it was more positive as in people were excited to see what we had done, rather than ‘Oh let’s go see that band again’, it was ‘let’s go see the old members from that band’. I think it was the excitement for that but I guess they were old fans who were seeing what we were doing.‘

  • Tune of The Week: 20/05/2011

    Oxegen is just around the corner and if you’re going you can’t really not go and see Chase and Status. They’re playing on the Sunday of the July festival and I’m sure their massive song with Liam Bailey ‘Blind Faith’ will get an airing.

    They’ve just released another track from their album, ‘No More Idols’, again a collabration, this time with Delilah. Yet again, they’ve come up with a hard hitting video, this ‘Time’ (no pun intended) looking at domestic violence. This week’s Tune of The Week is Chase & Status featuring with ‘Time’.

    I have to get better at picking tune of the week!

    This weekend is Oxegen weekend, I can’t really go to anything like that with the crutches so I’m at home wrapped up nice and warm. It’s pi55ing down here and in Punchestown! On twitter lots of people have said they are on the way home…

    In honour of all these poor soaking sods (I like the song too) this week’s Tune of the Week is Blue Pearl’s Naked In The Rain.

    I don’t know a whole lot about Blue Pearl.. here’s what Wikipedia say
