Oceansize: Everyone Into Position Draft
I can’t say much about this draft, but it was originally written out for something and that something didn’t materialise, in part because for the first attempt I realised I didn’t have enough time to put forward something that actually … Continue reading

Grace Jone: Slave to the Rhythm Draft
I’d been meaning to write about Slave to the Rhythm for a while, but I had difficulty in working out how to go about doing so. I just churned this out now whilst listening to the album. It’s a base form … Continue reading

Kylie Minogue: Fever Draft
I did a lot of editing on this one, which from the draft below, is probably obvious. The draft is a mess of things thrown together, so there was a lot of culling and combining I had to do. There … Continue reading

From Somewhere out the Back: Six Feet Above Yesterday by Infusion
This took way too long. I’d initially planned to cover Phrases and Numbers first, as that was Infusion’s first album. That was back in 2020. Then I decided to go based on order of what I’d first heard, which was … Continue reading
Regurgitator: INVADER
This is another one that took too long. I sort of took my time with it, sort of didn’t. It just mostly happened, if that makes sense. The editing process was easy, though I got to a point where I … Continue reading
toe: NOW I SEE THE LIGHT
I took my time with this one. I wrote most of the original form of this somewhere around the end of July, then made tweaks here and there. I rewrote some parts, made more edits, then got to a point … Continue reading
