Screenshot from Blue in Green Radio's New Music Round-up page. Text reads: Blue-in-Green:RADIO is a contemporary soul/funk/jazz/Latin internet radio station broadcasting an array of incredible shows from presenters and DJs from across the world. My Brain Feels So Good' by CommsBreakdown + Socool We never seem to have long to wait before we find ourselves gushing over new music from Emily “Socool” Sobool. Always seeming to cater to her prolific music-making tendencies, Socool unveils a fantastically imaginative collaboration with like-minded producer, Steve “CommsBreakdown” Ash in 'My Brain Feels So Good'. The rest of the review is at http://www.blueingreenradio.com/2026/02/new-music-round-up.html

Excited & grateful to read Imran Mirza's words about my new single with CommsBreakdown (@steveash.bsky.social) in today's New Music round-UP for Blue-in-Green:RADIO (@blueingreenradio.bsky.social):

Hey all you indie record labels out there - very open to do a distro with you. Shipping costs are insane now, but if we'll ever get a sensible leadership again its worth a discussion.

Square promotional graphic for an indie pop radio show titled “Fresh Ingredients – Episode 13.” The background is a muted beige with an illustration of Romanesque stone arches in soft brown linework across the upper half. In front of the arches, slightly left of centre, stands a stylised black-and-white drawing of a Siamese cat in profile, facing right. The cat has a dark face and ears with a pale body, rendered in loose, sketch-like strokes. It sits upright, looking contemplative, with long whiskers extending outward. Across the middle of the image, semi-transparent dark text reads: “In time the curtain-edges will grow light.” Dominating the lower centre in large, bold, blocky coral-red letters with white drop-shadowing is the title: “FRESH INGREDIENTS” Beneath this, in flowing white cursive script, it reads: “you can visit, but you cannot stay” In the bottom right corner, in elegant black serif type, it says: “EPISODE 13” In the top right corner, a bright red circular badge contains white lowercase text reading: “an indie pop radio show” The overall aesthetic combines classical architecture, indie-art illustration, and bold modern typography.

Tomorrow night at 7pm on untidyradio.com:

Episode thirteen of my indie pop radio show wil feature songs by Heaveny, @andrewrumsey.bsky.social, Royal Ottowa, Way Dynamic, @shopfiresmusic.bsky.social and @glenndonaldson.bsky.social. And lots more that jangles and shimmers.

A morning hedge cutting in a beautiful village
A cheeky lunchtime cider
An afternoon hedge cutting
A pleased customer baked me a cake
Some kind soul brought
Jolly Johnny and his Oompahing Oomlahs

I wish such simple luck upon you all
