floating in the clouds

So I haven't done one of these posts in forever.  I used to love my Monday mornings, sat down with a cuppa and chatting about the music I'd been listening to the past week. A whole lot has changed in my life since then that it almost feels weird to look back at it now, I've been a whole three other personalities since the old Currently Listening To's. Music has always been a huge part of my life and the songs I listen to always have some deep meaning to me, which is where these posts started. I was so terrified to let people see the dark corners of my mind by talking about my favourite songs, but I love picking songs to pieces and talking about how and why they impact me, so alas, Currently Listening To was born. They're some of my most read posts and favourite to write about so that's why I've decided to reboot them up again! My music taste is going through an odd sort of stage right now, I've been listening to a lot of songs about being independent...

Since my new kinda 'blog relaunch', I was having a ganders through my old posts just to clean up my dashboard and delete any drafts that were lying about, when I came across this one. This was a post I'd half written and never finished or added the photos to, so it got drowned out along with my other posts and forgotten about. On the one hand there really isn't much point to posting this after so much time, but it really was such a good weekend, and Rationale has recently released a new song so hopefully a few new UK shows are coming soon after his London one off show has just sold out. He's an incredible up and coming artist and I'd love to spread the word around about him because I genuinely, genuinely, think he's great. His style is an odd one, he uses (I think I would describe it as) techno beats, catchy rhythms etc. But has such a soulful, meaningful voice which makes his songs so good! His stage presence is also absolutely insane. We were first int...

I mentioned doing this in Monday's post, but then I thought about it and I wasn't sure whether to or not but I've definitely decided to do it now just because I've never been so obsessed with something in my entire life. This whole week I've done nothing but listen to this album over and over it's definitely the best album I've ever heard I love everything about it. I've never seen anyone do a review on an album before on a blog (not the blogs that I read) so I don't know what I'm 'supposed' to do, I'm just going to write my thoughts on each song then the album as a whole. Also this is not the deluxe album, there are thirteen songs on this one (the only fault I can find with this album -I hate the number thirteen). source Can we first talk about how beautiful this vinyl is!!!!! It came up on my Tumblr and I cried a little bit... First song, Satellite . this song is such a perfect opening for the album, it starts laid ba...
