Joseph Spence was born in 1910 in Andros, Bahamas. His vitamin D infused guitarmanship & guttural musings are loaded with genuine heart & soul. True spirit lifting goodness...

A Charlie Brown Christmas…

Call me lazy, but I couldn't think of a better soundtrack to the holiday season. So here it is in all its blanket toting, filth cloud wearing, good grief saying splendour. Enjoy...

Playlist To A Seahorse

6a — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 02:16:13 +0000

When I think of a seahorse, I have trouble imagining what brings it joy. Perhaps the tiny crystalline bubbles emanating from its bony mantle. Or perhaps the remarkable ability to move its eyes independently. Or maybe being capable of rapid colour transformation, or monogamy or something. But to hell with all that! I want to believe that at the end of a day bobbing about in the coral, our dear seahorse retreats into a sheltered recess & swoons to the dusty crackle of music from days gone by. Songs of suffering, songs of hope. Songs that warm even deepest, darkest sea beds. Enjoy...

Hello Autumn. Hello early sunsets. Hello shimmering laneways & woolen garments. How we adore your colours, your crisp breath, your nostalgic murmurs. May we offer you a tasty selection of ear treats? Please, stay for a while. Please..?

We Love Otis Playlist

We love Otis Redding around the acreage. A lot. For a man who was around for such a heartbreakingly short time, he created a wealth of beautiful music. So, in honour of his birthday on September 9th, we’ve put together a playlist featuring the birthday boy, some of his Stax label mates and a random selection of songs we think he’d like. We invite you to find a place to sit back (a dock if possible), listen to his scratchy yet soothing voice and waste some time. He’d like that.

Heat wave! And how better to celebrate than with the sounds of sand & sun & vast arid landscapes? Keyfine bak!

Oh thank you summer. You are here and we love you. Here are some tunes to have a cold one to and enjoy the heat like our neighbours way South.
