My wife got us tickets to see the Manics and Suede at the O2 later this year, so I thought I'd check out what they'd been up to since the 90s.

Wow, they've both been prolific! Manics with 15 and Suede with 10 (plus 2 awesome B-side albums).

Currently obsessed with Suedes music. Still very high quality. Favourite new album has to be 'The Blue Hour', really dark and gothic. Plan to listen to the Manics new stuff next.

Moral of the story is: Never forget about the bands you used to like in the day, they could well still be knocking out bangers.

The 2004 performance will be released as a live album on September 11th (streams only)

When it came out, the meaning of this song didn't reach me (English isn't my native language) but the sound and the singer Skin's voice? Immediately under my skin. That she delivered was onb point with my own beliefs was the cherry on the top.

Peripheral byways: Skin & Skunk led me to discover *Me'Shell Ndege Ocello* (trip-hop) then *Erika Badu* (jazz/rnb) while I was at that time more a grungexplorer loyal to goth & punk (*Siouxsie* especially), expe & industrial (*Einstürzende Neubauten*, ) but always attracted by funk pop (*Prince*) and art-pop (*Kate Bush*).

I well never thank Brits enough for the versatily of their production - especially *Killing Joke* (who led me to *AFX*) adventures in the sound scapelands.

Picked up Shine 7 on cassette and (re)discovered them. I know I must have listened to them at the time because Sparkle feels familiar and the name low key is, but it feels like a new find!

Im mostly looking for something with one word like “oasis” or “pulp”. Apparently to all of my band mates it needs to be “non cringy”. Help please!

This song was the complete opposite of ‘DYWIM’ to edit.

First of all, I had to do something about that wall of guitars, so I placed that mix behind Liam and the drums in such a way that everything now sounds much clearer.

I also discovered a second vocal track with Liam! I wasn’t expecting this, but there’s a second vocal track behind the lead vocal providing harmonies that sound brilliant! I’d even go so far as to say that Noel is backing Liam in certain parts. Alan White gave a masterclass on the drums, showing that the song had great dynamics which, in the end, felt smothered by so many layers of guitar.

I also want to share the link to the first two songs and Magic Pie, which I recently finished editing and will also be on YouTube soon :)

change the "+" to a .

I hope you like it :)

PD: USE HEADPHONES or better, listen the song in speakers, if you use your phone speaker you don't gonna hear the biggest differences. For all audiophiles: this version has a decent DR9, but unlike pressed formats like vinyl which have more range so the needle doesn't skip, this one has a composite of the treatment I gave the song making it sound more modern and not compressed like 1997 & 2016 version.

Thank you!
