Hackney born and Colchester based he returns with a cheeky new single Here Come The Freaks. 

Written, recorded and self-produced by Johnno in the middle of recording a new Snippet album, this song just didn't seem comfortable being sat between two tracks on an album, so it busted out in its own right. 

Here Come The Freaks is in celebration of the picked upon, the bullied and the under-appreciated members of society.

Former caretaker, London Underground railman and relationship manager Johnno Casson aka Snippet started out writing songs at 15 in his bedroom on a Hackney council estate with a tennis racket for a guitar and a soap-on-a-rope microphone.

Johnno juggled being in a band with holding down a normal job (playing a packed Astoria at night and washing out s**t stained lifts in the morning).

Johnno played for Adrian Sherwood’s (On-U-Sound) 5-a-side football team (silky smooth striker), gloriously beating The Sun’s newspaper’s team at a championship for charity at Arsenal’s old Highbury stadium and for the last 12 years he has been perfecting his coleslaw making skills whilst getting M.E and becoming a well-respected figurehead on the British D.I.Y./Wonky Pop scene by making excellent songs that may come from the borders and margins, but kiss you in the sweet spot as good as more mainstream songs do. 

Oh and Johnno has recorded and toured extensively with all sorts of bands including as lead singer with Deep Joy who were born out of the early 90’s London acid house/club scene - via Shoom nightclub and being named as Danny
Rampling’s favourite band, working with David Harrow and Andrew Weatherall who produced and remixed their debut single on Brainiak Records - onto the early years of trip-hop on James Lavelle’s Mo ‘Wax label and being championed by Gilles Peterson on Kiss FM. 

They dented the charts in New York, Tokyo and London and also worked
with the aforementioned legendary On-U-Sound label founder and producer Adrian Sherwood on their Ray Hayden produced material.

For the last 12 years Johnno has been releasing independent music under his own name, as Snippet, Old Tramp and Walken400, creating a unique catalogue of recordings and performances and has been named by Tom Robinson as the most played BBC Introducing artist ever on his BBC 6 Music show. 

He also the founder/producer of the Warm and Toasty Club, an innovative  and award winning club that uses delightful live events to make older folk feel cherished and less lonely. Of late the club has kept people connected throughout lockdown with 70 online chat shows with fun features and live singing guests (called Online Memory Afternoons), a monthly Warm and Toasty Newsletter and a daily telephone befriending service to help keep loneliness and isolation at bay and keep people connected.

Cold days long gone
Summers here, game on
Party with friends, good feelings never end
Some day’s life just feels so incredible
Sweet days we wish would never end

We luv the sunshine
All day
We raise our glasses 
Held high
We live to party
All night
We live for love
All day

Long day in bad job
They pay me but hate boss
Just when my wits end
Here comes the weekend
Some people love to bathe in misery
We choose to lose ourselves in good

We luv the sunshine
All day
We raise our glasses 
Held high
We live to party
All night
We live for love
All day

We luv the sunshine
All day
We raise our glasses 
Held high
We live to party
All night
We live for love
All day

We luv the sunshine
All day
We raise our glasses 
Held high
We live to party
All night
We live for love
All day


This is music to lift your spirits & put a spring in your step. 

Snippet is the work of one man – Johnno Casson. Johnno cut his musical teeth as lead singer of trip hop pioneers Deep Joy, working with the likes of Andrew Weatherall (Primal Scream), James Lavelle (Mo’ Wax/UNKLE) and Adrian Sherwood (On-U-Sound) and touring extensively – including dates with The Farm. Staggeringly prolific, Johnno releases music under a variety of different names, including his own & Old Tramp in addition to Snippet.

London reared & Colchester based Snippet has been forging a wonderfully vibrant path for the past Six years & has released Two Albums & Four EP’s between 2008-2013 which have attracted a world wide following to this very unique brand of wonky pop music from the leftfield; Bouncy with a dash of folk & a splash of funk.

“Snippet: A National Indie Treasure” 
Tom Robinson BBC 6 Music

“Dry of humour and lo-fi of sound, the skewed pop of Colchester’s Snippet is reminiscent of early Beck.” 
Q Magazine

“Sound of the summer...Pop Genius-9.5/10” Louder Than War

“Touched a nerve, we love it.” 
Rob da Bank BBC Radio 1

We Luv The Sunshine

English Fables Vol.1 is the follow up to 2022’s Chippa.
Available now on Bandcamp https://snippetcuts.bandcamp.com/album/english-fables-vol-1

Recorded at home DIY style with a beaten up old tube mic, a nylon stringed guitar, an assortment of guitar pedals and a set of good intentions. This album is chock full of personality, characters and brimming with life.

On English Fables Vol.1 you’ll find an authentic voice delivering stories of the England he knows, of people and of life – all wrapped in musical grit, bounding knee beats, bouncing guitar refrains and beautiful strings, with some wonderfully oddball songs with hooks to die for (Michael, I Knocked You Off The Ladder, Billy With The Wonky Toe).

And in the tradition of the classic English songbook there are wonderful little original gems to be found like Funny Habits, Tip Of My Tongue, Resting Face and Stop And Enjoy it.
There’s even a guest spot for the velvety tones of Marina Florance.

Behind Johnno’s 'survive life by laughing at life' persona there is a real deeper craftmanship in action here, through his enchanting multi instrumentation and clever lyrical interplay.

There’s also a fearlessness from Johnno in covering his battles with chronic health conditions (The Little Things), toxic masculinity faced growing up on a council estate (Patriarchy Vs A Mothers Love), male violence (Punch), the pollution of our waterways (Pipe Dreams), and mental health challenges (Sometimes Life Is Really).

Track 2 Come On Down was apparently born out of listening sessions with Sleaford Mods, Donald Byrd's New Perspective and Dexy's Midnight Runners, with a splash of 7” inch Northern Soul thrown in for good measure, yet it comes out sounding totally upbeat Snippet, totally Johnno in a top mood.

English Fables – Vol.1 is an album of empathy, compassion and warmth - this is beautiful English outsider art from a thriving DIY cottage industry of really interesting recording artists like Johnno Snippet making special musical moments and new memories to bring joy to people.

Back story - Johnno recorded and toured with bands such as Deep Joy who were born out of the early 90’s London acid house/club scene - working with Andrew Weatherall, David Harrow and onto the early years of trip-hop on James Lavelle’s Mo ‘Wax label and being championed by Gilles Peterson. They dented the charts in New York, Tokyo and London and also worked with legendary On-U-Sound label founder and producer Adrian Sherwood.

Lyrics

Be it day or be it night, always chipper, always bright
As you wait, you wait for a man to come
You show ‘em in, show ‘em out
Meet the kids then chuck him out
As you wait, you wait for the right man to come
I’m free for a date, oh free for a life
Come elevate all these matters of stress and strife
It’s in front of you nose but you just can’t see
When every road you’re travelling leads you right to me

I’m a bad man, I’m an old man, I’m a foolish man 
But I do the work like nobody else can
Bad man, I’m an old man, I’m a foolish man
Doing the work like nobody else can

Made mistakes, paid my dues
the kindest souls can get the blues come on, give this bloke a chance
Patient man, callous hands but a heart that understands
Come on, I won’t be playing you
I can hail at the moon, I can scream at the light
Even tough men want someone to hold at night
I’ve got so much to give and I’m good for my years
Ain’t it just about time that someone dried your tears

I’m a bad man, I’m an old man, I’m a foolish man 
But I do the work like nobody else can
Bad man, I’m an old man, I’m a foolish man
Doing the work like nobody else can

Only hope these words of mine are getting to you
Only hope these words of mine are getting through
We’ll be fine, we’ll be cool, we’ll be right, we’ll be true
Girl it’s time we got together now
Girl it’s time we got together now

I’m a bad man, I’m an old man, I’m a foolish man 
But I do the work like nobody else can
Bad man, I’m an old man, I’m a foolish man
Doing the work like nobody else can
Bad man, I’m an old man, I’m a foolish man
Doing the work like nobody else can
Bad man, I’m an old man, I’m a foolish man
Doing the work like nobody else can

Following his last release ‘Verdict’, London-based and Munich born tech-house producer Tian Karl has teamed up with Underground Audio to bring you his latest EP ‘Mercury’, including a remix by David Pher of the headline track.

‘Mercury’ draws together a driving kick drum with raw trashy hi-hats, ominously layering in dark filtered synth stabs with wild spacey sprays to slowly intensify its atmosphere. Dark yet melodic interludes are broken nicely with an array of vocal cuts that allow the element of this track to truly flow like quicksilver.

David Phers spin of the track offers a more housey formula, yet remains true to Karl’s creation of a dark and ominous atmosphere. Here, the German offers a much brighter drum pattern and catchy bass line, juxtaposing the kits bells and crashes with the tracks original dark and menacing tones.

Again, Karl builds upon his pulsating and solid drum pattern with ‘Want You Too’, this time interblending mechanical synth sounding stabs with vocal cuts and pleasing synth interludes, creating a brooding combination of both dark yet punchy progressive tech-house.

The brainchild of Damian Lazarus, Crosstown Rebels has become home to many big hitters. Following on from his remix of Satori earlier this year, Riva Starr delivers his own, three-part tribal beast, ADVENTURES   IN DRUMS.

“I’ve always had a crush on world music since my first EP War Drums   back in 2008,  so I decided to go back to that particular sound. I find   myself playing it more and more in the club these days. It definitely is an Adventure in Drums.” - Riva Starr

MY AFRIKA opens up the EP with what would appear to be a tribal leader commanding your attention as the wobbly synths draw you in. As the heady bass kicks in you can’t help but succumb to the rhythm. On EUROVOODOO , alien sounding synths are weaved amongst high hats luring you into a trance-like, hypnotic state. EL SONIDO leans towards a faster, flamenco style sound with tribal singing beckoning you to   the   dancefloor.

Riva Starr is the alias of East London based Stefano Miele. He has long been a staple in the club scene bringing dancefloor fire to some of the world’s biggest stages, from Glastonbury to Japan’s Fuji Rock. His credibility as an artist has led to collaborations with some of the industry’s biggest players, including the likes of Green Velvet, as well as remixing for a number of high-profile musicians such as Wiley and London Grammar. Founder of Snatch!, 2017 was a monumental year for the label having reached its 100th release.

Lyrics:-

We set out our stall
But our conversations mental
I’m not unhinged
More totally unique
I might be keen
But I'm not guided by my winkle
Its not obscene if this is all to do with love	

Let’s talk about us
Let’s talk about us
Let’s talk about us
But think about me

Our open arms have gone flying in the wind
I’m not religious but God deliver me a drink
I’ve always charmed the birds out of the trees
So why can’t I just once not practise what I preach

Let’s talk about us
Let’s talk about us
Let’s talk about us
But focus on me

I’ve always been the biggest pain in the arse
I’ll change for you ,ain’t you the lucky one

Let’s talk about us
Let’s talk about us
Let’s talk about us
But think about me

📝 Lyrics:

Down by the fire she sat,
And this is all that's good,
With the grace of her allure,
I was lost in the woods,

And the world it was spinning so fast,
We revealed our hands,
In these days of romance,
We'll take what we can,

Unseen and living within,
Among a feeling of a curse,
With words I can't pretend,
It's coming undone,

And we run from prevailing winds,
Say run run with the sun,
In the evenings I'm away with them,
And I'm caught in a whirl,

And we run as far as we can

I've never loved those days more,
And the east don't know
Worries I had none,
And it all goes on

Through the surrounding fog,
And a failing of words,
To try and try again,
But it just doesn't work,

It's you and rising tides,
And its one one to none,
Do I really care,
It's got me stuck,

And we run as far as we can,

I've never loved those days more,
And the east don't know
Worries I had none,
And it all goes on

📝 Lyrics:

Here's to a new day, I'll crawl up to the edge won't give it away just yet.
Here's to your new chase, our ivory colored bones will be all the same no matter where we go,

Through the Tangles and Leaves , how do you believe that the meadow's to come,
And when you finally find me I'll have to leave but I can't leave you behind,
Please say somehow we'll be alright, can't shake the aftertaste

So to a new place, a meaning and a cause to keep us at bay,

But when you drift out to see how do you believe that new land is to come,
The cage is open see like I'm to stuck to get free and get close to the sound, to hear it sounded different when we were young.

The heat bleeding sun, the songs that we sung, just leave in the car I'm tryna' overcome,
We've been waiting so long, and the train's moving on,
but as far as we've come I think we'll overcome

So through the Tangles and Leaves, how do you believe that the meadows to come,
and when you drift out to sea how do you believe that new land is to come

So through the tangles and leaves, how do you believe

📝 Lyrics:

Torn jeans, I've always been a dreamer. I pictured my whole life when I was twelve years old
A cabin in the woods, a beauty by my side. This redhead wife of mine would be the sweetest thing you've ever seen

Now she stands in front of me
I'm the luckiest man you'll ever see
We'll be getting there if you dare to say that you're a dreamer

Torn jeans, I'm sick and tired of working for the man. These golden chains

Weigh heavy while the kids run steady in their bliss, the old man holds firmly to his cane
Old strings taught me playing is just another way of saying the words that lay heavy on my tongue

Oh my god, I've got so much to tell her
The joyful and the horror, just give me more, more, more

Now she stands in front of me
I'm the luckiest man you'll ever see
We'll be getting there if you dare to say that you're a dreamer
We'll be getting there if you dare to say that you're a dreamer
We'll be getting there if you dare to say that you're a dreamer

Torn jeans, I've fallen so often
But every bloody knee taught me to get back on my feet

Lyrics

And the light goes dim and the good flows out
And it keeps me wondering, wondering what life’s about
I hit some lows and feel the spin
And it keeps me wondering, wondering how I can win

And when the darkness comes, I haven’t got a clue
I haven’t got protection, falling like a fool
My mind goes spinning round and I feel so bruised
It’ll strip my confidence, dignity, happiness before its through
And I feel the shame of it and I feel the strife
Oh God can you send me a plan for this life

So I reach for light to find my cure
Too tired of stumbling, stumbling, stumbling through the door

All I wanted, all I needed, all I got was nothing
All we hoped for, all we prayed for and all we got was nothing

I’ve had enough of my fickle foe
Too long been following, following everywhere I go
So I try to be kind and try to do good
No one warned me what I’d find in adulthood

So I reach for hope because it feels like home
Too long been stumbling, stumbling, stumbling on my own
So I turn to you to let me in, I’d rather just be poor and free than in a spin

And the good will out and a change will come and stop me worrying, worrying, worrying everyone
And I turn to you, my heart is flickering 
I’m wondering, wondering is this the end

(c)Johnno Casson - 2020

The back story

For the last 16 years Johnno has been releasing independent music under his own name, as Snippet, Old Tramp and Walken400, creating a unique catalogue of recordings and performances, and having been named by Tom Robinson as the most played BBC Introducing artist ever on his BBC 6 Music show, Johnno has continued to release vibrant music with plenty of bounce to the ounce.

Former caretaker, London Underground railman and local council relationship manager Johnno Casson aka Snippet started out writing songs at 15 in his bedroom on a Hackney council estate with a tennis racket for a guitar and a soap-on-a-rope microphone.

Johnno played for Adrian Sherwood’s (On-USound) 5-a-side football team (silky smooth striker), gloriously beating The Sun newspaper’s team at a championship for charity at Arsenal’s stadium, and for the last 12 years he has been perfecting his coleslaw making skills, whilst getting M.E and becoming a well respected figurehead on the British D.I.Y./Wonky Pop scene.

Johnno also runs the award winning community group The Warm and Toasty Club, running special live events for the last 9 years www.facebook.com/thewarmandtoastyclub
