    The London Ear on RTE 2XM // Show 107 // Jan 30 2016

    On this week’s show I was delighted to have the opportunity to speak to Johnny Ward, an Irishman, who I have to say, I personally find an inspiration. He is travelling to every country in the world, while running a new $1 million business from the luxury of his laptop. I mean, come on, who wouldn’t want to live like that.

    I spoke to Johnny last week, before he headed off to visit some of the most dangerous countries in the world, including Libya and Afghanistan. #hero

    Tune of the Week // Teddybears feat. Gorilla Zoe // The Best You Ever Had

    Teddybears are a Grammy award winning Scandinavian electronic act who spent most of 2015 writing tunes. Ok, it’s time to name drop. They wrote Diamonds by Giorgio Moroder and Charli XCX, and have been working on tracks with the fabulous Sia, John Newman, Ellie Goulding and Mr Pop himself, Max Martin.

    In ‘Best You Ever Had’ they’ve teamed up with Gorilla Zoe (Boyz n da Hood, Lupe Fiasco) and emerged with a thumping electronic rock track that wouldn’t feel out of place filed next to Apollo 440’s Stop the Rock.

    I defy you to listen and not dance.

    The Best You Ever Had is taken from their new album, ‘Rock On’, which was released yesterday via Polydor Sweden.
