WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE

  • RAULT

    Have you heard of Michael Rault? Well, there’s a good chance he released the finest LP of 2022, if you’re into perfect pop that’s cut with all good things like West Coast 70s music, Paul McCartney’s Wings, ELO (aka Beatles: The Musical), Harry Nilsson etc. If you need more modern recommendations, then file Michael Rault

  • BEGIN TRANSMISSION

    What’s the deal here? A music blog, being launched in a time when blogging is absolutely dead, especially trying to cover music? What’s the point in that? Well, call it a labour of love.
