Annnddd we’re at the end of another month!
I’m really excited to share these tracks with you. There have been so many brilliant songs released lately, and I’ve been absolutely devouring music recently. Below, I’ve written about many of my favourites—but as always, I’ve included the playlist at the bottom, featuring a few extra tracks I’ve loved but didn’t feel the need to write about.

As ever, I know your time is precious—so whether you give this a proper read, a scroll through, or just check out the playlist, I massively appreciate it.

So, let’s dive in!

Monthly Mixtape – January ’25

Happy New Year!
Excited to be sharing my listening habits with you again this year—if anyone’s interested, of course!

This month’s mix is a bit all over the place. January always feels musically odd to me—there’s a lingering hangover from last year’s hits, but not much new to get excited about yet. I think that’s reflected in my listening habits over the past few weeks—an eclectic collection of songs spanning different eras and genres.

I’m a little late again (sorry!). Life is crazy.
This is a really special set of songs for me and I am really excited to share these with you.

These blog posts typically take around an hour to an hour and a half to write so as always, I REALLY appreiciate every read / scan / visit. It makes it all worthwhile.

You can see my Top 5 at the top for a quicker version or read the longlist below.

Howdy. I’m quite late again, aren’t I? Sorry. Life is busy but I love doing this!

From now on, I’ll be trying to keep the mixtape to 20 songs dissected, but other stuff I’ve enjoyed this month are at the bottom in the complete playlist.

Short on time? My Essential 5 are featured at the top!

As always, I really appreciate every read, scan or visit and hope you find some new music you love.

Monthly Mixtape: Jan ’24

It’s been a while! Some of you may know this as ‘Current Faves‘, which I posted regularly on the Instagram Stories on my music acount for 4 years. I’ve rebranded back to what I used to do here on the blog and call them my Monthly Mixtapes.

The idea? I love music (if you hadn’t already figured), especially discovering and sharing new finds. So on the last weekend of each month (late this time due to ill health), I’ll be posting a selection of songs I’ve been devouring that month. A selection of old and new. Some stuff will be commercial and some won’t. There are no rules, just songs which speak to me.
