THE REAL GONE SINGLES BAR #96

Welcome back to the Real Gone Singles Bar, the place where we investigate some of the individual tunes that have landed in our inbox over the previous few weeks. This time out, we bring you a dance oriented number with indigenous vocals, a couple of very different country tracks, a second single from an up and coming British band, and an unexpected reissue. You’ll also find guitar driven pieces that fit easily into our more typical musical jigsaw and the return of a cult singer-songwriter. We hope there’s enough here to suit a variety of ears…

THE REAL GONE SINGLES BAR #95

In terms of selection, this visit to the Singles Bar casts its net rather widely to bring you a variety of entertaining tracks. Thanks to a massive influx of submissions over the past month, we’ve had more than enough to fit our usual remit, and even been sent couple of rather bold offerings that would’ve struggled to find a home elsewhere. You’ll find one of these here – a sprawling piece of distorted noise that a few people will love, but most will likely feel affronted by such an abrasive noise. That’s balanced out nicely by a couple of singer songwriters, a strong pop based piece, and a throwback to the 90s that’s almost perfect. Dig a little deeper and hopefully you’ll find other treats along the way. …And as always, if you find something new to enjoy, why not stop by and tell us? We’d love to hear from you!

THE REAL GONE SINGLES BAR #93

Welcome back to the Real Gone Singles Bar, the place where we explore some of the individual tracks that have landed in our inbox over the previous few weeks. This time out, we’ve got the return of a much-loved pop band, a laid back narrative piece from a very familiar name, a great synth oriented workout, some huge riffs from the Medway area in South East England…and more besides. As is often the case with the SB, there’s no genre snobbery; just a spotlight on things we’ve found interesting. Hopefully, you’ll find something of interest too.

Welcome back to the Real Gone Singles Bar, the place where we explore some of the individual tracks that have landed in our inbox over the previous few weeks.

You’ll also find some cool downtempo electronica, some raw garage rock, a singer songwriter with a great mellow sound, and more… As always, we hope you find something new to enjoy!
