For those of you who are not on holiday, I’ll pretend not to be as well. On the other hand: why would you stop listening to new music when you’re not at home? The stream of great new releases doesn’t run dry either.

The last seven days I enriched my 2017 container playlist Carte Blanche Music with Armstrongs, Nothing But Thieves, Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark and Ride, among others. And as always, the crème de la crème of this fine bunch if brand new songs is listed alphabetically in my Werner’s Weekly playlist below. Please allow me to bring you up to speed in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…

• Aloe Blacc – King Is Born (Wildcard this week)
• Alice Merton – No Roots (Wildcard last week)
• Chase & Status feat. Emeli Sandé – Love Me More
• Last Train – Between Wounds
• Tom Grennan – Found What I’ve Been Looking For
• Young Gun Silver Fox – Midnight In Richmond

Through the links above you can read my recommendations for each track, and while reading, you can listen to all of the songs via the Werner’s Weekly player in the sidebar.
