Song of the Day: Siiga

Sunday, April 8th, 2012

It is not often that our Song of the Day is the same artist more than once. Siiga is pretty much anonymous and he has just been popping up every now and then with the most intriguing and creative videos we have seen in some time.

Song of the Day: I Build Collapsible Mountains

Saturday, April 7th, 2012

I Build Collapsible Mountains (Luke Joyce) is a mysterious man. Quiet in company, yet his lyrics have the true merit of honesty and our Song of the Day has been taken from his 2nd album release.‘Promenades’ is taken from ‘Songs From That Never Scene’, in my opinion a starkly impressive step up to his debut [...]

Song of the Day: Plum – ‘Smile’

Thursday, April 5th, 2012

Song of the Day comes from Edinburgh based artist Plum. The name didn’t really sell itself I have to say, but what is in a name? Onto the music……

Upon first listen it was an immediate hit, I Am Blip can [...]

Song of the Day: Make Sparks – ‘Rewind’

Tuesday, April 3rd, 2012

Make Sparks had disappeared off the radar for a while, presumably to record and start phase 2 of a world takeover.
Today’s Song of the Day is their track ‘Rewind’, a track that immediately grabbed Podcart by the bollocks (including the females) a while back.
The thing about Make Sparks is that first and foremost they are [...]
