Off the back of a recent playlist refresh, and with spring on the horizon (fresh beginnings and trying new things, eh), here at The Sound, we thought we’d spruce things up even more.
How? By blowing the dust off some records that we don’t often play and asking our Sound listeners what underplayed tunes they’d like to hear.
The result: The Sound Unflogged 100. A list of one hundred songs that we all thought deserved more love in the form of airtime.
Today we played out these tracks and it’s been a brilliant day full of great songs, if we do say so ourselves.
