Yazmin Lacey with a mix of Reggae / Jazz / Soul /Funk / R&B – listen below.
“These songs are favourites of mine, they have each influnced directly or vaguely the creation of this album. The playlist is very much in the sound world I love, 70s, syncopation, good grooves, soulful, heartfelt personal lyrics, and something unexpected.” – Yazmin Lacey.
Singer-songwriter Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes – listen below.
“Having sold over 30,000,000 records with The Black Crowes, singer-songwriter Chris Robinson has also explored more jam-based and softer material with projects New Earth Mud and The Chris Robinson Brotherhood.

Our very own Dennis Bovell mix on Qobuz – listen HERE.
“Dennis Bovell has earned himself the reputation of being Britain’s Reggae Maestro, from pioneering early developments in the genre over 40 years ago to producing classic hits. He is renowned as an accomplished multi-instrumentalist (playing guitar, bass and keyboards), sound engineer, composer, band leader and producer and continues to lead the UK scene with innovative and adventurous music.”
Record label Moshi Moshi providing a playlist featuring tracks from the artists on their eclectic roster – listen HERE.
“Moshi Moshi Records started off as a hobby in 1998, set up by three friends who wanted to work with the bands they loved. Check out their music offerings here.”
Record label Partisan Records providing a playlist featuring tracks from the artists on their roster – listen HERE.
“Partisan Records is an independent record label with offices in London, Berlin, Los Angeles and New York City, where the company was co-founded in 2007 by Tim Putnam and Ian Wheeler. Partisan has since cultivated an eclectic roster across all genres, prioritising an artist-friendly philosophy, and achieving international acclaim.”
Record label 4AD providing a playlist featuring tracks from the artists on their eclectic roster – listen HERE.
“The influential 4AD label was started in 1980 by music enthusiasts Ivo Watts-Russell and Peter Kent, with help from Beggars Banquet, whose record store chain the pair worked for.”
The wonderful Ash also created a playlist for Qobuz – listen HERE.
“Here’s a playlist of tracks we were listening to while making Race The Night that share some our favourite flavours of rock & punk.”
“Matt Berry has released eight incredibly diverse albums with UK independent label Acid Jazz. The tangled-folk rock thickets of Witchazel and Kill The Wolf, the out-there explorations of Music For Insomniacs or Television Themes’ retro-kitsch delights, the twilight grooves of The Small Hours and the classic pedal-steel songwriting of Phantom Birds and the smorgasbord of psychedelic sounds on The Blue Elephant: Berry’s journey has produced a feast for the ears that twists and turns down more unexpected avenues than most artists could manage over several careers. November sees the release of the Simplicity album, a unique collaboration with esteemed Library Music label KPM.”
Listening with The Go! Team – listen below.
“Heres some killer Go! Team favorities that turbo charged inspiration for the new album ‘Get Up Sequences Part2’ From sixties grrl groops to sitar thowdowns and loungey station wagoncore – it spans all the G!T soundworld.”
Listening with Luluc – listen via Qobuz below.
“A small visit down a pathway of artists, singers, songs and bands that forged our shapes and leanings. Have fun. Luluc x”
Label stories – Be With Records.
“Be With Records is a reissue record label, specialising in officially licensing and releasing vinyl records that are currently unavailable or never even received a vinyl release. From KPM to Kylie via Korallreven and Kimiko Kasai, the “baffling roster” (to quote Pitchfork) makes perfect sense to Rob and so far it seems to make sense to a few others too.“
Listening with David Holmes – listen below.
“Belfast-born David Holmes boasts a formidable CV, with five solo albums and 25 soundtracks to his name. His screen work ranges from Steven Soderbergh’s classic Ocean’s Eleven trilogy and Steve McQueen’s critically acclaimed Hunger, to stylish TV dramas including London Spy and The Fall.
Holmes’ group Unloved have released two LPs, which form the majority of the soundtracks for Killing Eve.Blind On A Galloping Horse is David Holmes’ first album since 2008’s The Holy Pictures.
This playlist features music that inspires David on a daily basis.”
Listening with the Sprints – listen below.
“Hi, it’s SPRINTS! Here is what we love, listen to and were inspired by when making our debut album Letter To Self!“
