I was expecting August to be a quiet month … wrong! Life Sounds better to music in August 2021 with another brilliant batch of new releases.
Damond Ramsey & Sheila Ford ~ Feel Like Making Love
Damond Ramsey and Sheila Ford’s new version of the classic Roberta Flack song ‘Feel Like Making Love’ is absolutely spot on.
R Plus & Amelia Fox ~ Love Will Tear Us Apart ~ Tensnake Remix
Sometimes you see a remix, or a new version, of a song that people consider to be a classic and you think NOOOOO! I’m sure some people will feel that way about this – but I really love it. R Plus & Amelia Fox ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’ ~ Tensnake Remix
Silk Sonic ~ Skate
Bruno Mars and Anderson Paak are back with Silk Sonic for their second single ‘Skate’.
Digby Jones & Airglo ~ Beautiful Day
There’s a new Digby Jones album called ‘Balearic Sun. There are various collaborations including this one with Airglo ‘Beautiful Day’ which seems to start with a Moby hook but really takes it on.
Will Downing ~ The Warmth Of You
A few months back I featured another new Will Downing song – ‘Stand Up’. Here’s another one, ‘The Warmth Of You’ actually went to number one on the UK Soul Chart.
So there you go! Life Sounds better to music in August and I’m sure it will again in September.
Mug of tea raised ~ Cheers!

Life Sounds Better To Music, July 2021 is the latest in a series that’s been running for quite a while now. I still hear people who say new music is rubbish. The truth is, they just aren’t hearing the right new music. So each month I post a few tracks that have pinged up on my radar. CLICK HERE for last month’s post.
Here’s a few from July 2021.
David Guetta Mista Jam & John Newman ~ If You Really Love Me
David Guetta, Mista Jam, & John Newman team up together for ‘If You Really Love Me’ – a song that follows on where a classic left off. If I say “How will I know” … can you work out how ‘If You Really Love Me’ fits?
D’jear featuring Heidi Burson ~ Show Me
UK DJ/producer D’jear and US singer/songwriter Heidi Burson team up for this lush modern dance track. Actually ‘Show Me’ is way more than a dance track – it’s a proper song and a great groove.
Cornell C.C. Carter ~ Not Possible
Cornell C.C. Carter ~ ‘Not Possible’, made it number one on the UK Soul Chart earlier this month.
KSI ~ Holiday
New music from former Professional Boxer, YouTuber, Influencer, and now hit recording artist KSI. This one has gone Top Ten in the UK and it looks like we’ll be hearing a lot more from KSI.
Tygressa Jones ~ Just A Minute
I actually thought that July might be a tough month for new releases – I was so wrong! Truth be told I could add another 3 or 4 tracks but I’ll make this the last one.
Tygressa Jones – I can’t tell you much about her – she’s from Maryland and is also known as “Tygressa sings Natalie” for a Natalie Cole tribute show she does. ‘A Minute With You’ is so classy, it reached number one on the UK Soul Chart – give it a listen!
There you go, another month of great new music – because Life Sounds Better To Music in July 2021. See you next month for the next installment.
https://www.thepartydj.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/the-party-dj-logo.png00Paulhttps://www.thepartydj.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/the-party-dj-logo.pngPaul2021-08-01 17:03:372021-08-01 17:03:39Life Sounds Better To Music July 2021
Life Sounds Better To Music In April 2021 and yet again more great new music to buy and add to my collection. That’s right, I buy new music. I have a t-shirt that I got years ago which says “Buying records cheers me up… Whenever I feel low, I buy some new records”. I’ll just leave that there.
Jungle ~ Keep Moving
Jungle have become one of the Top 5 bands I want to see live in recent years. I found them because their music was used in a lot of adverts a few years back. I love their moody vibe. Josh Lloyd-Watson and Tom McFarland founded their Jungle collective in 2013 – their third album “Loving In Stereo is due for release in August but this track came out at the beginning of the month.
Peyton ~ Moon River ~ Eric Kupper’s Lunar Eclipped Club Mix)
This is one of those songs that takes me way back to my childhood, and my mum preparing food in our bungalow while listening to, what I think must have been, a valve radio. Moon River – composed by Henry Mancini with lyrics by Johnny Mercer. It was originally performed by Audrey Hepburn in the 1961 movie Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and won the Academy Award for Best Original Song – that was a brand new version of Moon River by Peyton (and this is the Eric Kupper’s Full Eclipse Club Mix),
The Isley Brothers featuring Ronald Isley &Snoop Dogg ~ Friends and Family
This absolutely blew my socks off! At a time when we are all thinking about getting back together with family and friends, this song absolutely nails it. Life Sounds Better To Music In April 2021 and this track proves that. I really hope there is even more to come from the Isley’s.
Raquel Rodriguez ~ Last Night
Finally, the last few tracks from the project get released and so Sweet Side is complete. If you follow this blog you’ll know about my love for Raquel Rodriguez, her husband Sam and their friends, this is another track that stands on it’s own – it’s SO flippin’ good! Last month I featured Read The Room, another track from the project CLICK HERE
That was Life Sounds Better To Music In April 2021. As always, take care, stay safe and count your blessings ~ cheers!
https://www.thepartydj.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/0023280407_20-e1618611306729.jpg300300Paulhttps://www.thepartydj.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/the-party-dj-logo.pngPaul2021-04-30 08:01:282021-04-30 08:01:30Life Sounds Better To Music In April 2021
Life Sounds Better To Music ~ November 2020 is a bit quieter than the previous months. I guess that’s because everything is now out ahead of Christmas. Back in the day, I had my own record shop in partnership with my friend Michael and all the big releases were out by now. I did post quite a lot of tracks in October PLEASE CLICK HERE which included a Thanksgiving Day song.
Having said that, there were a few big albums earlier in the month but nothing really got me particularly excited. So, here are the few things that got into my head during November 2020.
Royal Blood ~ Trouble’s Coming (Purple Disco Machine Remix)
English rock duo Royal Blood are not the type of band you’d normally expect to see featured here. Following on from their 2017 album “How Did We Get So Dark” the multi-award winning rock duo’s are back with new material. This is their first-ever official remix courtesy of DJ and producer Tino Piontek, aka Purple Disco Machine who has transformed their comeback track into this slick, modern disco groove. CLICK HERE for an NME article on the project.
Just when you think you’ve heard it all … Loyle Carner ~ Drive, Live, Feel Another Way
Maybe I did finally lose the plot – this IS an advert! As far as I understand it’s not even a complete song. I guess I would describe it as modern poetry, Here’s a quote I found …
Under the name ‘Drive, Live, Feel Another Way with the new CUPRA Formentor’, the launch campaign for the new Seat Cupra Formentor reflects on those emotions that make us feel alive. Through a visual metaphor, the actress of ‘Game of Thrones’ and ‘The Fast and the Furious’ Nathalie Emmanuel throws herself into the void, on an introspective journey from the stratosphere to Cape Formentor, where she meets the new model of CUPRA. The fall takes the protagonist to her childhood to remind her that there is something inside her that pushes her to live intensely, in a parallel with the adrenaline and emotion that she feels when driving the Formentor. The song was composed exclusively for the campaign by British rapper Loyle Carner.
AND THEN THIS HAPPENS! Another Seat advert – The Rhythm Of Life.
The team putting there TV ads are really knocking it out of the park! I still haven’t managed to find who this is doing a new version of The Rhythm Of Life – if you know please let me know. The song original comes from the musical “Sweet Charity” and is probably best known for the Sammy Davis Jr recording.
John Mayer … hours of fantastic live footage
John Mayer holds a very special place in my heart. I saw him with my late wife many times and a couple of those with our children including a fantastic night at The Royal Albert Hall on my 50th birthday.
What I think has happened here is someone has managed to get a great audio recording from John’s 2019 tour and has carefully edited lots of different YouTube video content to fit it. The result is incredible. There are to be four of these I believe.
Life Sounds Better To Music ~ November 2020, it’s been a strange month. I did listen to, and quite like, the Ariana Grande album, “Positions”, but it’s full of gratuitous bad language and sex – I must be getting old. There was other stuff too. Maybe I just spent too long listening to podcasts this month.
Anyway, that’s it for this time – see you at the end of the year!

Life Sounds Better To Music ~ October 2020 is a bit of a bumper month. We start with three tracks that speak to the world we find ourselves in. Then two more for the dance floor, and two more that have touched me in different ways.
Stevie Wonder ~ “Can’t Put It In The Hands Of Fate” and “Where Is Our Love Song”
Stevie Wonder is BACK! Following his kidney transplant last year, he’s actually just released two tracks “Can’t Put It in The Hands Of Fate” featuring Rhapsody, Cordae, Chika and Busta Rhymes, and “Where Is Our Love Song” which features Gary Clark Jr. This is the first new material in four years, and he’s hinting at a new album, the first since 2005.
And here is Stevie with a little bit of “Love’s In Need Of Love Today” and a message for us all.
Fiorious ~ Follow Me (Roger Sanchez Extended Remix)
This is a new version of a 1992 track by Aly-Us. If I remember correctly it was the first track played on JFSR (Jazz Funk Soul Radio) when it launched in 2010. This version by Fiorious on Glitterbox is remixed by House Music legend Roger Sanchez who also did a remix of the original.
BTS ~ Dynamite
I’ve possibly come a bit late to this one because it entered the British chart last month and peaked at number 3. Every time the Samsung advert comes on it brightens my evening – 2020 is such a mad year!!!
BTS are a K-pop (Korean pop band) who have been doing quite well globally but wanted to do better, so they released this fabulous track from British songwriter and producer David Stewart (not The Eurythmics guy) and former UK pop star Jessica Agombar and the rest is history.
You can find an interesting article about this track by Aja Romano on the Vox website click here.
Sleepwalkrs ~ More Than Words (feat. MNEK)
Following on from the Joel Corey collaboration I posted in July (CLICK HERE) here’s another fab track featuring MNEK. When I saw the title I thought it might be a new reworking of the Extreme hit, but it isn’t, it’s a brand new track.
Crowded House ~ Whatever You Want
I’m a huge Crowded House fan, they were one of the bands I was due to see this year before everything got cancelled. Now there’s a new album to look forward to and this is the new single.
… and one for luck Ben Rector ~ The Thanksgiving Song
I’ve been a Ben Rector fan for quite a while … I think since 2013, when I heard “Life Keeps Moving On” late one night on the Bob Harris Show when I was travelling home from a wedding. “The Thanksgiving Song” is a great song on a similar theme. CLICK HERE for an interesting article.
That’s Life Sounds Better To Music ~ October 2020, rather a strange mix of songs, but these are strange times.
Take care, stay safe and thanks for reading this ~ mug of tea raised ~ cheers! x

Another month of madness. In fairness, I don’t have much to complain about but September 2020 has been a tough month again for many people all over the world. At least there has been more great new tunes to enjoy, Life Sounds Better To Music ~ September 2020.
Chanelle & Eric Kupper ~ One Man (Michael Gray Remix)
A rework of one of my favourite floor-fillers from 1989, this is my tune of the month – THIS is something to smile about! The original version was produced by Blaze, this time Eric Kupper is in that role remaining true to the original but giving it a fabulous fresh feel. Put on your dancing shoes and leave your troubles behind for over 5 minutes of pure joy.
Lovers & Poets ~ Follow You Follow Me
Lovers and Poets are husband-and-wife team of Shannon Hurley and Ben Eisen. I featured their track “Nevergonnastop” back in April (please click here). Now they’re back again, this time with a chilled out Genesis cover!!!
“Follow You Follow Me” was a hit for Phil Collins and Co in 1978. In this version, Shannon sounds a little like Neil Tennant of the Pet Shop Boys to me. To find out more about Lovers And Poets CLICK HERE.
Show Me Love (Cafe del Mar Edit)
The formula is simple, take one of the biggest dance anthems of the last 30 years and make a Cafe del Mar styled chill-out version. This one absolutely nails it.
Based on the 1990 Robin S song that was a hit in many different versions in the UK in 1993, 1997, 2009 and 2015, I don’t think it’s likely to chart in this version but I love it. It’s one of the stand-out tracks on this year’s official Cafe del Mar album Volume 26.
Sigala ft James Arthur ~ Lasting Lover
Right from the start, with very clever use of a sample of the hook from of MGMT’s 2008 hit ‘Time to Pretend’, this is a late summer smash. Actually written by Lewis Capaldi, the song features James Arthur on vocals fusing perfectly with Sigala’s dance beats and melody and the MGMT sample.
Alicia Keys ~ Love Looks Better
In fairness I could have taken most of the tracks from the new Alicia Keys album (“Alicia”). This is her seventh studio album and was due out earlier in the year but delayed because of … well, you know. Lots of the tracks were therefore already available but the whole album was released on 10th September and I had it on repeat for many of my walks in the final days of the month.
Here’s a bonus for you, another track from the album, “Underdog” recorded for The Late Late Show with James Corden
WOW! Life sounds better to music ~ September 2020, maybe it wasn’t such a bad month after all. See you soon.

Life Sounds Better To Music ~ August ~ the latest in my series of what’s been on my playlist this year. August was a strange month for me. I had some time in Fuerteventura and then two weeks of self-isolation back in England and I had a lot of time on my hands but I also seemed to have no time at all!
Musically it was strange too. There weren’t many new releases to get excited about but here are a few that I enjoyed.
Toni Braxton ~ Dance
“I just wanna dance” – well you can’t, so just sit down and tap your toes until this CV19 thing is sorted!
Toni Braxton is probably best known for her 1996 hit Un-break My Heart, with it’s excellent Frankie Knuckles dance mix click here. This new track to me sounds a bit dated and I’ve been looking for a cooler remix. So far I’ve only found the Dave Aude remix click here which doesn’t really do it for me. I’ll keep looking, I’m sure there’s one out there somewhere. It’s such a shame Frankie Knuckles is no longer with us to work his magic.
Bruno Major ~ Nothing
It’s been quite a mellow month for me. This guy came on my radar, thanks to the excellent “Switched On Pop” podcast. It’s very chilled, easy listening, lo-fi pop, but there’s nothing wrong with that.
Taylor Swift ~ The 1 (from Folklore)
Another mellow listen, at least as far as the music is concerned. Taylor Swift turns in a very good album covering some dark topics. In style it reminds me of the albums John Mayer was making a few years back.
Gregory Porter ~
Finally, right at the end of the month, the long-awaited new album from Gregory Porter came out. You may remember back in January I featured “Revival” (Click Here) At that time the album “All Rise” was expected in the middle of April but it was finally released on the last Friday of August… and that sums up 2020! I have a signed CD … I couldn’t resist!
That’s Life Sounds Better To Music ~ August 2020. I’ll be back in a few weeks with my September picks, in the meantime have fun and stay safe.

The month started with a very strange revelation… I really like the new Lady Gaga album!
Lady Gaga ~ Chromatica (the album!)
Chromatica was released at the end of May and, to be honest, I really didn’t know anything about it. However, at the beginning of July I was listening to one of my favourite podcasts “Switched On Pop”, and WOW! CLICK HERE to go this fantastic podcast about this surprisingly good album.
I’m no Lady Gaga fan. I quite liked her first hit, Just Dance, but that was 12 years ago. So, without the podcast it’s unlikely I’d have bothered to listen to this, her sixth studio album. A guy called BloodPop (who has worked on loads of big stuff shares the writing and production credits. There are guest vocals on “Shine From Above’ from Elton John, and Ariana Grande on “Rain On Me”.
The album is a good listen and I had it on repeat for a few days. Having listened to the podcast it all makes sense – give it a try. Here’s the Ariana track
EDIT – then later in the month, along came this excellent remix by the fabulous Purple Disco Machine!
Johnny Hates Jazz ~ Spirit Of Love
I have a FaceBook friend called Scott in America, who I met through my time with Steve as internet radio DJ’s (on Morpher /JFSR / New York) , who posted this one. As he pointed out – “The lyrics are so good and fitting for right now” .
Johnny Hates Jazz are probably best known for their 1987 hit “Shattered Dreams” which reached number 5. They are still around / back and this is their new single. It reminds me a lot of “Harvest For The World”.
Deadmau5 & The Neptunes ~ Pomegranate
I’m a longtime fan of Joel aka Deadmau5, I’ve even been to see him live. The 2008 album “Random Album Title”, which includes “Brazil”, “Faxing Berlin” and “I Remember”, is one of my favourites.
The Neptunes are Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo… that’s right – THE Pharrell Williams, so quite a pedigree!
I’ll be totally honest, at first listen I was a little disappointed with Pomegranate, but it’s a grower.
Disclosure ~ Expressing What Matters
Those clever Lawrence brothers are back with a very clever reworking of Bozz Scaggs classic 70’s track “Lowdown”. I absolutely love it but, having said that, I’d love to hear a mix that used even more of Lowdown.
Expressing What Matters is on Disclosure’s new album “Energy” which is due at the end of August.
Joel Corry x MNEK ~ Head & Heart
Finally, I was looking for a video to use in the observation round of the quiz one week and I came across this one. Because I watched the video several times this catchy pop tune “ear-wormed” it’s way into my brain.
Joel Corry, for anyone who doesn’t know, originally came into the public eye on Geordie Shore – not that I have ever watched the show. Wikipedia describes him as a DJ, producer and fitness trainer. After 12 singles that didn’t chart between 2015 and 2018, this is his third and biggest tune to date.
That’s Life Sounds Better To Music ~ July 2020. As the month came to an end Taylor Swift released a new album – another one that really surprised me. We’ll see if I decide to include it next month.
Until next time my mug of tea is raised to you and yours ~ cheers!

Life Sounds Better To Music in June 2020 – Oh my days! Six months of 2020 down and even more of my bookings have been postponed to 2021. Thank goodness for music!
In case you haven’t seen the previous posts, I’ve been trying to share some of the music that’s been on my radar each month. If you type “Life Sounds better to music” in the search box it should bring up the others – like this one CLICK HERE for the May entry.
Here’s my selections for this month because Life Sounds Better To Music ~ June 2020
Lennon Stella Feat. Charlie Puth ~ Summer Feelings
A very pleasant summer track to kick things off (even though I can currently hear the rain on my conservatory roof). Lennon Stella is a Canadian singer and actress, she played Maddie Conrad in Nashville – I’ve never watched it, six series and loads of episodes … maybe I’ll dive in if we go back into lockdown. Charlie Puth… well if you haven’t heard of Carlie Puth where have you been for the last five years! It’s just a pleasant “now” sounding track from the soundtrack (see what I did there) of the new Scooby-Doo film Scoob! To see the film trailer click here.
Jacob Collier ~ All I Need (with Mahalia & Ty Dolla $ign)
Creating music in lockdown… I have a weekly catch up with some DJ mates, and we were talking about new music. Some suggested that there wouldn’t be any great new music until next year because the Music Industry is locked down – wrong!
If you have read my blog for a while, you will know I’m a Jacob Collier fan. He continues to create, record and release music all the time and lockdown has actually made him even more creative. If you want to find out more, check out this episode of the excellent “Switched on Pop” podcast CLICK HERE, or just watch this video.
The Shapeshifters Ft Billy Porter ~ Finally Ready!
Finally ready on 26th June (you see what I did there) was this fabulous single from the Shapeshifters featuring the multi-award winning Billy Porter. American Broadway theatre performer, singer and actor Billy Porter also co-wrote the track with Shapeshifters which they describe as “a declaration of Pride, of breaking free from past traumas to take a chance on love.”
The lift for the chorus is immense!
This is another great Shapeshifters track for 2020 and beyond.
Jubël ~ Dancing In The Moonlight (Feat Neimy)
A cool new version of a track that has become a real anthem in recent times. Originally a hit for Toploader in 2009, this is a remix of Jubël’s 2018 cover of the song.
If I was in Fuerteventura at the moment this would certainly be on my playlist for a sunset bar set.
Gold ~ Rewound ~ with Stevie Q & Paul Leighton
Finally this month, I’ve been listening to Radio shows I made with my great mate Steve ten years ago. Yep, Paul Leighton is me in case you hadn’t heard – it was my “stage name” when I was a club DJ back in the day. These shows are made up of great music we wanted to play. We spent hours preparing and recording these shows so it’s nice to revisit them ten years on. Here’s one, there are loads more on my page and I’ll add more in future weeks.
And that’s Life Sounds Better To Music ~ June 2020. Another testing month eased by the joy of music. See you soon.
https://www.thepartydj.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Screen-Shot-2016-12-09-at-11.58.42.jpeg295295Paulhttps://www.thepartydj.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/the-party-dj-logo.pngPaul2020-06-30 10:07:572020-06-30 10:46:34Life Sounds Better To Music ~ June 2020
Life Sounds Better To Music ~ May 2020. We come to the end of another month in the year that promised so much … then took a major detour. Life has started to return to the new normal (whatever that’s going to be) and, as always, I’ve got a lot to be thankful for. New music seems to be slowing down, which I guess is inevitable under the circumstances. Here are some new and old things that have been in my ears during May.
Badly Drawn Boy ~ I’ll Do My Best
Damon Michael Gough, aka Badly Drawn Boy, is an act that I came to late. I’ve never been fortunate enough to see him play live. He’s someone I turn to when I need a musical hug. My friend Chris Haslam has been sharing his playlist over the recent months and he’s responsible for me finding this and the Baxter Dury below. Thanks Chris.
I’ll Do My Best is from the first Badly Drawn Boy album in eight years. As well as this track from the album, you can also see a fascinating short video called ‘Supersize Your Soul: The Story of Banana Skin Shoes’ if you CLICK HERE
Nathan Dawe ~ Flowers (featuring Jaykae)
A not-so-new new release, apparently from the end of last year – but new to me. Actually I think this isn’t the mix I heard but it’s the nearest I can find.
Originally a hit for Sweet Female Attitude in 2000. Apparently the song uses the same chord sequence as Erik Satie’s well know classical piece Gymnopedie 3.
If you know a softer/Glitterbox/Tropical House style mix of this UK Garage classic, PLEASE let me know.
Baxter Dury ~ I’m Not Your Dog
New to me, Baxter is the son of Ian Dury. He actually appears on the cover of his dad’s iconic ‘New Boot and Panties’ album. ‘The Night Chancers’ by Baxter Dury is the other recommendation, from my friend Chris Haslam. Another that made a big impact on my May playlist. His vocal style is so much like his Dad’s, ‘I’m Not Your Dog’ is a great example of this.
Neil Finn featuring Stevie Nicks & Christine McVie ~ Find Your Way Back Home
One of my all-time heroes released a new track at the end of the month. Mr Finn of Crowded House fame, and more recently a member of Fleetwood Mac, wrote the song for the homeless of population of Auckland in New Zealand and the Auckland City Mission which works to support them.
The song features Stevie Nicks sharing the lead vocals and Christine McVie on backing vocals.
It’s beautiful.
Prince ~ I Wanna Be Your Lover ~ Dimitri From Paris Remix
OMG! This remix is from way back, but I hadn’t heard it until it featured on a recent Glitterbox Radio podcasts. One of my favourite Prince tracks remixed by one of my favourite remixers – Dimitri From Paris. Ignore the Dimitri from Stoke tag on the video – that’s probably to reduce the possibility of it getting taken down). THIS is absolutely my favourite find of the month.
And that, dear listener, is Life Sounds Better To Music ~ May 2020. I must confess it was hard to find four tracks this month. Maybe it’s the lack of new releases or maybe it’s just me. If you have some stand out new music on your playlist, or have any thoughts about these, please get in touch – paul@thepartydj.co.uk.
