Album of the Week: Norah Jones – Visions

New Zealand Net Radio plays a song from our irregularly updated #albumoftheweek every hour from 9am to 12pm. Listen in @tunein at http://tun.in/sfAtE or on the web player.

Although her last album (2020s Pick Me Up Off The Floor) ended up being underrated, Norah has continued to display her incredible talent in this, her eighth full length studio album. AllMusic describe it perfectly: “The results aren’t startling so much as they’re fresh, avoiding musical and lyrical clichés”. All her talents are on show here in an album full of variety, allowing her to “dart between blues, exotica, Italo-western, and soul” (The Line of Best Fit substack).

New Music Friday: 30th November 2018

Its Friday so its time for five brand new tracks to get their first spin on the hour every hour from 9am. We’ll keep playing these tracks on New Zealand Net Radio, home of streaming radio ad free 24/7 throughout New Zealand.

GRAACE – SOS

A great track off her recent EP Self-Sabotage

 

 

 

 

Anne-Marie – Perfect to Me

An uplifting track from the British pop phenomenon.

 

 

 

 

Billie Eilish – come out and play

Part of Apple’s ‘holiday’ (i.e. Christmas) campaign another nice track following on from “when the party’s over” a few weeks ago.

 

 

Norah Jones – Wintertime

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Avalanche City – Prayed For Love

And we saved the best for last (in our humble opinion!). We haven’t heard any music from this amazing Kiwi artist since 2015. This fantastic track presages his new album My Babylon early next year – can’t wait!
