if I ever feel better.

mid morning. I have no coffee. I have blank glassy tired eyes - what you seeing, boy? walking a bit too slowly for my own good. when it feels like everyone else on the tube is staring at you and the black pits you see opposite in the glass (they’re not).
listen to Pooma and try [...]

Phoenix - 1901.

know this: we love Phoenix as much as the next guy. we probably couldn’t do without them in our lives and we are awaiting the kitsuné tabloid comp with severe itchy feet. but you won’t be seeing 1901 here. our boy Scotty Pinglewood said everything there is to say, and you’ll do well to go [...]

midilove.

we’re crushing on Domino artists so hard right now. Junior Boys, Franz, Animal Collective, Max Tundra. God yes this begins all over the place, underwater vibes so much we looked at our headphones to check if they were broken or not (they’re not), then goes into that Tundra mix of bass and mid range piano [...]

Ffffffound Franz Ferdinand

The best moments of the new Franz material are not to be found on the fabulous sounding Dan Carey produced album ‘Tonight’ but instead on a highly limited, hard to find, brilliant conceptualised dub based remix album. Whilst this is entirely subjective i find it hilarious that the label aren’t pushing this more, maybe the [...]

In light of our ongoing love affair with xxjfg

Ok ok, we all went to xxjfg dj gig at the ICA on Saturday night, drunk much vodka, spilt much vodka and resisted the urge to dance like a flaky limbed combatant. Yet what fun. A crystal daze of music and shoddy lights, the murmurings of resentful friends dragged along against their better judgement, [...]

Banjo Or Freakout!

Props to Scotty Pinglewood for yet another Sunday Evening addiction. Electronica low-fi; charming and emotive causing temporary brain drain. Buy the Banjo Or Freakout debut 7″ here.

Casual Sex

No really, this isn’t me being a randy bugger for the 5,000th time this week, Asobi Seksu actually does translate to ‘casual sex’. Aha. remixed by hot as shit Twins, I am particularly enjoying the classic shoegaze inspired sugar pop of the mid 90’s juxtaposed with some rather high fiving electro sounds of the oooownine. [...]

I heart comix

One of our very favorite bloggers is coming to Europe, Woohooo folks. He of numerous areas of brilliance, DJ [check], Promoter [check], Record label don [check], Artist Manager [check] has provided us with this rather lush mix to preempt his arrival. Follow the man on twitter.

Green Eyes is back.

One of my favorite songs of all time.
I can’t remember the last time I felt this way
About somebody
You’ve done something to my mind
And I can’t control it…….
MP3: Erykah Badu: Green Eyes
