Every time I start a new podcast, I always have way more songs in mind than I can fit in. In some cases; I sit on certain songs for months until they feel right to me. A reggae track, for example, would sound really out of place in November and equally an ambient track with an icy synth would sound ridiculous in the middle of Summer.

So I've decided to start a new feature called 'Side 2' to showcase the songs that were equally deserving of a place but never worked out for one reason or another . 

Outside of the podcast these are the songs that are also floating my boat at the moment. Such is the level of quality been released, that it's impossible to try and give them all their deserved run out. 

Consider it a companion piece to the Podcast. It won't be for everyone, but it also allows me to clear out the messy cupboard and take stock of some songs, that there's a danger, I might otherwise forget about. Check it out. You might find a new favourite for yourself.
