Oscar Mic – TV Life
The song has a few themes. The TV Life theme itself was originally inspired by
lock-down and how our options were suddenly limited. TV and film played a bigger role
in our lives overnight. Lock-down life, to an extent, is TV life. It’s also about how
we, as a culture, are given very little to inspire us. Mainstream TV with it’s
reality shows and talent shows are bland and, to me, very surreal. We are not offered
inspiration these days. We have to go outside the realms of the everyday to find it.
TV controls us and keeps us numb. We are living in a time of ‘trace information’
(scraps of info or piles of conflicting info) and great revelations and statements
that confuse and scare us all. Social media is being manipulated to keep us confused
and scared and so we tend to give up because we don’t know what the actual truth is.”

Castaway Hounds – Couldn’t Be More Fine
Fun Band, Definitely not from America, and that’s OK!

Public Nature – Find My Baby
song about a boy who is deeply in love with love. He grows up looking for the
girl of his dreams. He’ll maybe never find her. Is being in love with someone you
don’t know the cutest thing in the world or is it insanity?”

Keeley – The Glitter and the Glue
a blistering buffet of psychedelic rock, post-punk and the fuzzier, more frantic
end of the dream-pop spectrum

Sweethearts – If I Could I Would
Apparently there’s a 90’s resurgence and this band is leading the way.

Gunke – Mum
a playfully buoyant indie rock number, which counteracts the darker subject matter
discussing the fading embers of a dying relationship, before crashing into a wild
ending bringing the lyrical frustration to the forefront.
