This wonky, silly, electronic album by Graham Kartna has been filling my glad bags with happy pixels on repeat recently!

A curated selection of small, cosy, unusual music. I’ve been enjoying listening to this while practising coding 🤓

I made the mistake of playing this retro smooth synth funk music video to my toddler and it’s now become a multiple times daily ritual that we watch this extra-long-ponytailed man emote on his synthesizer. But I don’t mind because if my baby’s into synthesisers then as far as I’m concerned I’ve done my job as a father perfectly 👌

A beautiful vocal and analogue synthesiser performance. Oh there’s a cello too! It’s powerful and spacious at the same time, like THE UNIVERSE ITSELF WHOAAA 🌌

An ambient sound/music project by sound artist Crystal Cortez which uses the electrical impulses of growing plants to create musical pitches and sounds. The pieces on this website were made from plant data and field recordings collected at the International Rose Test Garden in Portland Oregon.

I love this brass quartet piece by The Westerlies, it’s kinda joyful and beautiful! If you like this, their album Wherein Lies The Good is definitely worth a listen, some wonderful stuff on there 🎺

My friend Verity Standen made this beautiful song and music video in the depths of the pandemic. I first watched this a couple of months ago feeling deeply exhausted with it all, and I proper blubbed, I tell you, blubbed all down my face.

This pop/punk/noise album by Norwegian band Pom Poko is like candied habañeros, sweet but spiky! Gets me excited!

This compilation album of Venezualan music from 1966 - 1978 is bringing some sunshine to my life at the moment. My lil boy loves dancing to it too! There’s a second compilation out soon if this floats your boat.
