Diem Ex Dei - Globus

Globus Double Day! This one is a great bass test track. It rumbles and builds up slowly, up to no good. You can feel the earth's energy somehow in this track. The rhythm kind of feels like the sea, coming and going, giving and taking, again and again.

The Promise - Anneke Van Giersbergen, Globus

Funny that today's song is titled 'The Promise', as I've broken my promise to you, my dear readers (oh that makes me sound old). Spend the past couple days in bed with Covid, unable to write blogposts or even listen to music properly. One

Kelly Moran - Butterfly Phase

After all that heavy stuff from the past couple days/weeks. Let's chill down a bit with some piano music. I've always loved the piano as an instrument: Chopin is one of my fav composers. So when I discovered Kelly Moran, oh boy was I happy.

Intro - XX

Short and powerful this song is, and so my blogpost for today shall be as well!

Fortnight (feat. Post Malone) - Taylor Swift

I don't really follow Taylor Swift, but it seems that today everyone in the music blogsphere is talking about the new release. So I should join in as well right? Decided to give the new album a listen and what do you know, I like the bassy groove

Memories (feat. Kid Cudi) - David Guetta

There was this one summer that I put this track on repeat and must've listened to it about a gazillion times. There's something hopeful, joyful, about the lyrics. Accompanied by a great groove, it was the song of that summer: All the crazy shit I did

Nobody Knows - Autograf, WYNNE

Another one from my 'Speaker testing tracks' playlist. This one is great to test soundstage and bass. I love the atmosphere in this track.

Thriller - Michael Jackson

I can't believe we've made it this far without MJ. Part of my soundstage testing playlist (especially the creepy intro has a great display of what soundstage should sound like, gotta love the early days of stereo for stuff like this right?). Moral discussion bound to

Blood Sugar - Live at Brixton Academy - Pendulum

Talk about setting the mood during a live concert. That intro is so sinister, it bodes not very well for the audience: Ladies and Gentlemen we understand that you have come tonight to bare witness to the sound of drum... and... bass We regret to announce that this is not

Jack of Speed - Steely Dan

Part of my speaker/headphone testing playlist. If this song don't sound good through the speakers/headphones you're testing, then throw them in the garbage. This track is so absurdly well recorded and mixed, it makes even a toaster sound great if it were able to

Black Video - SX

Let me sum up this one real quick: * Belgian band * Beautiful female vocals * Thumping drum groove * Epic build up to the chorus that fully unleashes the song * Beautiful videoclip * Saw them live way back when * Ok, this might be a little longer than 'real quick' * Ok, for real,

La vie en rose - Edith Piaf

Sometimes, you just need to slow down and enjoy life as it comes. That's what this song is about. It's a timeless classic, no need for a lot of words:

Fake Is The New Dope - Hooverphonic

New Belgian release alert: newest from Hooverphonic is out. There's some weird tracks on this album, but the album opener (Fake Is The New Dope, today's track) is a good old typical Hooverphonic track. Little fun fact: did you know that the frontman is from the

Tino - Bodem

Ah some sweet jazzy sax tunes today! Did you know this band is Belgian? And did you know the sax is a Belgian invention? I remember that before the Euro made its grand entry, we had bank notes with a sax on it! Anyway: it's not Sunday, but

Rautavaara: Cantus Arcticus / Piano Concerto No.1 / Symphony No. 3 - Einojuhani Rautavaara

I know spring is here, but I got the immediate chills when listening to this song for the first time. It's the Arctic symphony: written for birds and orchestra (say whut?). It's weird, it's bonechilling, but it's peaceful in its own way.

Pineapple Kryptonite - Yohji Igarashi Remix

Look ma, I'm on the weird part of the internet again! I found this gem of a video, about pineapples, and a very well rehearsed set of dance moves. Look at those moves, they could win the next rendition of 'Stars on the dancefloor' or any

Sure Thing - St Germain

Spring is here (already has been for a couple weeks now), so it's time to go and have an aperitif. And this is the song I put on whenever I'm drinking an aperitif. You know: an aperol spritz, gin tonic, negroni or something else. This is

Flow - Dub FX

Another golden oldie. I love what this dude does with a loop effect pedal and his voice, he makes pure dub. Add a little jazzy sax and you've got yourselves a groovy hit. I love how the music forms from a simple rhythm, then add on a little

Radio (MTV Unplugged Version) - The Corrs

There was something magical about the time of the MTV Unplugged albums: Nirvana, Eric Clapton, some other artists and The Corrs all did a session and those Unplugged albums are almost always better than the original recordings. This album by the Corrs is no exception. I've picked '

Blue Monday - HEALTH

It's an 80's track, but the remixes from HEALTH that's used in the movie 'Atomic Blonde' and whoever/whatever is being used in the Call Of Duty Black Ops Cold War Trailer (see below) still hits so hard in 2024 that it&

Antidote - Swedish House Mafia vs. Knife Party

We're a little later than usual today, but we didn't break our streak of a daily dose of music! Swedish House Mafia part 2 today: 'Antidote'. A banger of a track, and a banger of a videoclip if you ask me. Knife Party in

One - Swedish House Mafia

I love the intro of the music video that accompanies this track. A synthesizer, tweaking the sound until we get the iconic sound of this track, clapping hands et voila! We're off! Day 1 of 2 of Swedish House Mafia. Because I like Swedish things: I love Ikea,

All Of The Lights ft. Rihanna, Kid Cudi - Kanye West

No, it's not an April Fool's joke today. We're really talking about a Kanye West song today: All Of The Lights. A Youtube video again, since I think you should watch the music video while listening to the song. But beware: there's

I Really Want to Stay At Your House - Rosa Walton

If you've seen the anime, you know how hard this song hits. All them feelings. No jazz today, sorry chooms.

This Fffire - Franz Ferdinand

Day 1 (of 2) of Cyberpunk 2077 music! This one is from the Edgerunners Netflix Anime. I have a weird love/hate relationship with Cyberpunk. I didn't care about it until a couple months before it came out, then I loved everything about it. Then it came out
