Me & Magdalena
The Monkees 🇺🇸
20th May 2016 (single), 27th May 2016 (LP)
This is another great track from the year of many gems, 2016. That year marked the 50th Anniversary of the formation of The Monkees, and a project was put together to make a new record by the three surviving members. This is its highlight track.
Spitfire
Public Service Broadcasting 🇬🇧
26th March 2012 (single), 6th May 2013 (LP)
Continuing the theme of sample-based tracks, next up is Spitfire, by Public Service Broadcasting. The song would work absolutely fine as an instrumental, but the samples from the 1942 film "The First of the Few" add so much more.
Ablaze
School of Seven Bells 🇺🇸
12th February 2016 (LP)
The fourth and final LP from School of Seven Bells was completed without main songwriter Benjamin Curtis, who sadly died young in 2013. But it's a fine record, and the opening track, Ablaze, is a highlight from 2016 - a year of many highlights.
