This week’s playlist is an homage to AllSaints’ Basement Sessions. These guys have been steadily churning out a solid supply of quality podcasts and sessions around the corner from Anorak HQ for a while now. To celebrate we’ve picked a couple of videos as well as a playlist of some of our favorite guests from over the years. Enjoy.

                             

We’ve picked one of the recent sessions from Saint Saviour as well as a classic interview from (the hyper charming) Howard Marks.

     

     


We are very excited to introduce Stevie Neale; hailing from Cornwall she played BBC’s Hackney Weekend before she had released any music – the booking was made on the strength of her live show alone. Now, her debut single has landed and with Radio 1 plays from Zane Lowe, Rob da Bank and Toddla T already, her name is one you’ll going to be hearing a lot of in 2013. 

‘Dangerous’ will be released as a white label through Week of Wonders on November 5th, it’s a slice of 90s garage complete with punchy piano but Stevie’s huge vocals bring it bang up to date. Have a listen below.
