With humble apologies to the creators of the iconic NOW series of compilations that began in 1983, I posted and compiled the first WOW That’s What I Call Mayhem collection back in March, with volume 2 following just a few weeks ago. So are you ready for volume 3? I certainly hope so, because here it is! This includes the third 20 singles we reviewed in 2024 in another maniacal eclectic playlist for your listening pleasure! With 70 minutes of music, click here and lose yourself in the music!

Here is the Mayhem chart for March 2024. Regular readers know that the chart is based on my Spotify listening habits over the last month. The chart remains contemporary-ish, rather than just an oldies chart However, the top three “Legacy” artists are Kate Bush, David Bowie, and Steve Harley/ Cockney Rebel. David Bowie returns to the chart after missing out for three months. Obscurify also suggests the most obscure artists I have listened to and for March those are Liz Davinci, The Apocalypse Disco and The Chinaskis. There is a top ten artists chart and a top 5 songs chart. There is the usual eclectic mix of artists, including four that were in the top ten last month (Crawlers, Bambi Thug, Delilah Bon, and Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes). Four of the artists in the artist’s chart also appear in the song’s chart. Delilah Bon has been in the artist charts for four consecutive months and now she tops the song chart with the mighty “Maverick”. Drunk Mums crash straight to the top of the artist chart! So without further ado here are those charts in full! Click on the header of the song chart for the playlist on Spotify.

Mortimer Nyx has just dropped a contender for single of the year. It’s orchestral, riff-laden, haunting, melodious, other-worldly, and frankly alien sound probes deep into your inner psyche absorbing your id and everything about you before injecting you with an overdose of endorphins. Is this the best opening lines of a song ever? “The devil will lead me in tomorrow, The dawn will greet my sins with sorrow. In a mask of a thousand lies. The laughing face will dogmatize. When my deafened cries fall to heaven the mourning bell rings. Broken, aching hateful pieces of the losers happiness. Shattered thinly on the veil of my piercing screams” Mournful, hurting, horrific and yet strangely beautiful at the same time. This is what great music sounds like! I need more Mortimer Nyx in my life and even if you don’t realise it yet, so do you! Mortimer’s social profiles say “Creator of worlds. Rebellious revolutionary of sound“, I cannot argue with that statement!
