Grubby
I look for strong melodies, unique sounds & memorable atmospheres. Incredible tunes from unknown, undiscovered artists. I take great care to keep my playlists top quality, so please LISTEN to the playlist first (very important!), and if you think your tune will fit - send it to me! Submissions will get a full listen (probably multiple!) & detailed, constructive feedback. Tracks that earn a place aren’t rotated out after a week or two - they stay until new additions gradually push them to the bottom, meaning most tracks stick around for a few months. Finally, please - no AI music.

Hey there, Ronin 888 - thanks for the submission. your track has a crisp, bright sound and some nice atmospherics. The backing is quite simple - no bad thing - but I wanted a bit more variation or development as it does get a little repetitive after a while. The vocal is ok, but I'm not a big fan of auto-tune, and as t...
3 weeks ago · Open threadHey there, Tony - thanks for the submission. I thought your track had a great atmosphere. Really warm and smooth. I thought the sound choices were really nice too, with a tactile feel. The vocal sample creates a cool, cinematic vibe. Nice job!
4 weeks ago · Open threadHey there, Anka - thanks for the submission. I thought your track had a really nice, punchy sound and lots of energy. It's an infectious sound for sure. There's plenty of character in the vocal and lots of ideas in the track. So it really just comes down the song itself. Whilst I thought it was put together well and it...
1 month ago · Open threadHey there, Anka - thanks for the submission! your track has a really nice, warm sound. It's got that classic blues grit and heart. I thought the band sounded great, and the harmonies were a nice touch (although I thought they got slightly pitchy just after halfway). For me, the song just didn't really connect with me....
1 month ago · Open threadHey there, Nashville Exile - thanks for the submission! Your track has good energy, and a warm, punchy sound. It bounces along nicely, and is a fun ride fs. For me, the main motif was a little too simple - I bet it's great for a live singalong, but for my playlists I usually look for slightly darker, edgier tracks with...
1 month ago · Open threadHey there, Anka - thanks for the submission. Your track has a really atmospheric, dramatic vibe. It almost feels like a musical or film soundtrack. I liked the simple arrangement and the mix is solid. I thought the vocal had a warm tone and plenty of character. For me, the song itself is good, but never quite took off...
1 month ago · Open threadHey there, thanks for the submission! Your track has a really warm, clear sound. Its a really good mix with space and a full atmosphere. I liked the sound choices. The vocal had character - I liked the flow of the rap and the tone of the sung parts too. It's put together really nicely. Great job! Added
1 month ago · Open threadHey there, thanks for the submission. Your track has a lots of ideas and a really unique sound. I liked the slightly odd arrangement, with many elements coming together in a kind of musical collage. For me, it was a little too experimental though - some of the parts were fighting with eachother for attention, and some...
2 months ago · Open threadHey there, Brian - thanks for the submission. This heartfelt track has a warm sound, and an intimate atmosphere. I thought the production was really good (perhaps the ducking compression in a little too noticeable, but overall very good sound). The vocal has a workmanlike character - for me the vocal was slightly too l...
2 months ago · Open threadHey there, Clockwork Lemons - thanks for the submission. Your track has a nice, warm sound with plenty of space in the mix. I thought there was a slight retro feel to this one too, and the vocal had a decent character. For me, the synth patterns & drum arrangement felt a little too basic & predictable. Also, the melody...
