Wildcard (week 13):
The Spitfires – (Just Wonโt) Keep Me Down
Nothing is as effective in beating negativity โ even in these trying times โ as a ska song. This great new single by The Spitfires, for instance. Even the title, (Just Wonโt) Keep Me Down, sounds like a message of hope (and a middle finger to COVID-19). Itโs a powerful, infectious, brass-infused stomper of a song.
Frontman Billy Sullivan, bassist Sam Long, and drummer Matt Johnson formed The Spitfires five years ago. When playing live, the three-piece is augmented by three more musicians. Listening to their music, it isnโt hard to imagine their concerts being one big party.
The band recently signed to the legendary Acid Jazz Records label and just announced their upcoming album. Life Worth Living is set to be released on 5 June. It was produced by Simon Dine, who was behind the desk for several Paul Weller albums.
(Just Wonโt) Keep Me Down, The Spitfiresโ new single, is this weekโs Carte Blanche Music Wildcard!
In the Wildcards 2020 playlist you can find all of this yearโs Carte Blanche Music Wildcards so far.

single track
Rat Boy – Victim Of A System
Rat Boy (Jordan Cardyโs alter ego) doesnโt keep his critical views to himself. He has the courage to stick out his neck. In that respect, the title of his new EP Government Vacation is self-explanatory. Musically, his driving cocktail of rap, rock, and grooves adds fuel to the fire.
Victim Of A System is the EPโs new single. On it, Rat Boy enhances the aforementioned formula with infectious horns and a pinch of ska. Another track that screams for the volume to be pumped up.

Rat Boy – Turn Round M8

single track
Dubioza Kolektiv & Manu Chao – Cross The Line
Dubioza Kolektiv are a must-see live act from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Their live performances are characterized by power, energy and high-spirited flamboyance. Meanwhile, they balance heavy melodies and important statements.
Their new single Cross The Line is no exception. Musically, it contains their signature blend of traditional Balkan flavours, ska, punk, reggae, electronics, hip hop and rock. Lyrically, it holds an empowering message of freedom. It’s an ode to the determination, courage, and strength needed to leave oneโs homeland and face all challenges of an uncertain future. Not for the first time, Dubioza Kolektiv team up with their friend Manu Chao (of Mano Negra fame).
Cross The Line is the bandโs first new single ahead of their ninth studio album #fakenews, out in January 2020.
