Maybe it's the bass riff at the beginning of White Lines, the intro to Crazy in Love, Tom Verlaine's sinuous, awkward guitar solos, the crunching throb of Red Hot Chili Peppers or the irresistible synths of Kraftwerk, but what's certain is that certain sonic sensations trigger us as much as any melody or riff ever could.

Jazz and soul rooted pop singer-songwriter with a raw, warm and versatile voice.
Obsessive Beatles fans in the 1960s began to listen to their songs backward and hear things that might or might not have been put there deliberately, with Revolution 9 supposed to contain the message "Turn me on, dead man".
Since then, numerous groups have supposedly added hidden messages to tracks, including Judas Priest, whose track 'Better by You, Better than Me', contains the backward message: “Do it", and ELO's Fire on High contains the advice, “The music is reversible. Time is not. Turn back, turn back.”
How true is this enduring folk tale, and were they just coincidences that were enabled by the fact that vinyl can be played backward, and nothing more? And how do you engineer a voice to make sense when listened to backward as well as forwards? All this, and much more will be revealed in The Secret Life of a Record.
