The Listening Log

Saturday’s result looms, so the songs take over. Lemmy, Peel sessions, drifting folk and a bit of Bennett calm things down… slightly.

A must-win becomes a calm, professional victory, leaving Cambridge United one result away from automatic promotion.

A drifting Manchester drive soundtracked by Orbital, house, dub and rock, where traffic, memory and music all blur into one.

From Bernard Manning to Dolly Parton, a chaotic run of comedy, pop, and country turns into an unexpectedly sharp and entertaining stretch of listening.

Motown, 80s rock, classical calm and modern rap collide on a Friday, with music and routine quietly bringing everything back into balance.

A renewed love for Pet Shop Boys leads back to Relentless, a hidden mini-album that trades pop for mood and quietly pulls you in.

A chaotic, brilliant playlist soundtracks a long drive home after Cambridge United’s 4–0 win, shifting from euphoria to calm across the night roads.

Sunshine brings out the worst drivers, but Pete Shelley, garage, and dub keep my sanity just about intact.

A familiar collapse as Cambridge United concede late again, the commentary heavy with tension and the table shifting underneath us.

Storm Dave rattles the building while Southampton unsettle Arsenal, and I drift between football and work on a long night shift.
