Sounds

It feels a bit odd to say “I love music”, because I find it hard to imagine a human that doesn’t love music of some form or another. If you don’t love music, this part of the site is probably not for you.

My aim here is to write about music and other sonic experiences. I sometimes curate playlists, write about gigs & festivals, and might even share some stuff I’ve made. Enjoy at a sensible volume…

Xmas music

Every Christmas there’s a considerable amount of low-key argument about what music to play. We have a number of playlists that get trotted out, with Dr G’s “Christmas 2017” winning most of the battles. Mainly because it’s been honed over a few years to meet Dr G’s and Baby G’s requirements exactly. It’s a fairly bulletproof mix of festive hits, from Mariah Careyopen.spotify.com to Jona Lewieopen.spotify.com. Also over the years, we have instituted a “No Christmas music before December 1st” rule, which means we’re not too sick of it all by Christmas day.
