From now on you can also follow the Wildcards 2017 playlist, if you wish. Obviously, this playlist contains all of the tracks that were chosen as Carte Blanche Music’s ‘pick of the week’. In other words: the most interesting – but not per se the most commercial – songs 2017 produced so far. A real treat for your ears!

For this has been a good year for new music so far, as last week proved. My 2017 container playlist Carte Blanche Music features additions by Haim, The All-American Rejects, Wolf Alice and The Dirty Denims. And from the tracks I recommended to you on this blog, only the very best are now in my shortlist, Werner’s Weekly. They are listed alphabetically below. Click on the links for further reading and while doing so, listen to the songs through the Werner’s Weekly player in the sidebar. Happy discovery!

• BC Unidos (feat. Shungudzo) – Bicycle (this week’s Wildcard)
• Eliza & The Bear – Higher (last week’s Wildcard)
• Anna Of The North – Someone
• AronChupa – (Don’t Fight It) Feel It
• Punnany Massif (feat. Pásztor Anna, Charlie & Petó Szabolcs) – Ami Volt Az Majd Lesz!
