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 The Danphes - thanks for the submission. Your track has a real throwback vibe and some Cure-esque guitar sounds. I thought it was light and bounced along nicely. For me, the vocal didn;t gel that well in the track, it sort of sat on top of the mix and I didn't really engage with the expression or tone of the...
5 months ago · Open threadHeyt here, davey - thanks for the submission. Your track has a decent, commercial sound. I liked the space in the mix & arrangement. There were some nice sound choices and the percussive touches added some flavour. The vocal is fine, but does feel quite generic - it reminds me of something from the 90's or 00's - like...
5 months ago · Open threadHey there, DFalcon - thanks for the submission. I thought your track had a clean sound. For me though, some of the sound choices, beat patterns, and vocals (especially) sounded quite dated and generic imo. I didn't hear enough that was unique, surprising or memorable. So, while the trak is put together pretty well, it'...
5 months ago · Open threadHey there Chris - thanks for the submission. Your track has a really unique sound and loads of energy. There are big issues with it though. The mix is so overloaded, it's distorting all over the place, which makes it very hard to listen to. I can hear that there are some cool ideas in there, but overall the beat is qui...
5 months ago · Open threadHey there Chris - thanks for the submission. Your track has a cool, intimate sound. There's plenty of space in the mix too. I thought the drums sounded great. For me, the guitars sounded a little too thin though. The vocal has character, but felt a little low energy and slightly pitchy in places. I'm sure that's an art...
5 months ago · Open threadHey there Stephen - thanks for the submission. Your track has a smooth sound, and a really traditional feel. There's a calming vibe and a solid, pleasant melody which feels like an old standard. However, it feels a little dated and mild for my playlists, and the vocal lacked a really distinctive character. Overall, it'...
5 months ago · Open threadHey there Mama No Likey - thanks for the submission. Your track has a nice, raw sound. I though the vocal was really good, with lots of character and a nice raspy tone. The production is good too and the track is put together well. However, I thought the melody & chord progressions were too generic if I'm being totally...
