<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\nBlur – ‘The Universal’<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nI adored Blur throughout my teens and they\u2019ve been the band I\u2019ve stuck with throughout my life. This tune takes me right back to my teenage bedroom.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\nMark Ronson ft Mystikal – ‘Feel Right’<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nA more recent creation and it just makes me so happy.

<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\nGO Team – ‘Ladyflash’<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nDancing and loving the summer. This band kinda disappeared but their glorious tuneage lives on.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\nNina Simone \u2013 ‘Sinnerman’<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nI love this, the repetitiveness is sublime and here voice is so powerful and evocative.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
