Today, I’m doing something a bit different, putting together a playlist of music I’ve been loving recently. I like to try and make the page as accessible and entertaining for everyone, not just music nerds! I like to explain how I found the music I enjoy, and try to review current hits along with older legends.

However, I thought that if I made a playlist containing “Hey Jude,” “Mr Brightside” and “Smells Like Teen Spirit” – some of the most recognisable songs of all time – there wouldn’t be much point talking about that! Thus, this playlist features more obscure songs mostly. A lot of ’70s punk, ’60s pop, and some more modern offerings. A real simple rock n roll/mod feel to the playlist I think.

These choices will all be explained in a silly future article aswell… Thanks for reading.
