Depeche Mode – World in My Eyes
I love this band. They hail from Essex and totally took America by storm, exporting some of the best music the United Kingdom has to offer. Depeche Mode are cutting edge tech and way back when they were at their peak in the 1980s they were redefining music boundaries. Many of the seminal New York… Continue reading

Wez G – Holiday
I loved making this track, It should seemingly fell together and seemed to work. The album artwork is of me when I was travelling around French Polynesia in 2005 – It is on a remote island next to Tahiti called Moorea. It was a lovely place, perfect for a Holiday!

a-ha – Take On Me
This a flashback from my early childhood. I had it on 7 inch vinyl. It was a big hit back in the err…. day. I didn’t have MTV, not many did – a satellite dish was well pricey – you might get to watch it in the pub on the big screen if you were… Continue reading

Céu – Varanda Suspensa (Tropix)
I am currently in a Chatham House webinar on President Lula in Brazil. I had a little search around and apparently Céu is the Brazilian Taylor Swift so I thought I’d check out some of her music. I like World Music and it always helps in learning foreign languages and accessing global cultures, expanding one’s mind and world view, something we, in general… Continue reading
