Memory Tapes

We’ve been loving on Memory Tapes / Weird Tapes / Memory Cassettes for some time. Their album (limited CD release) ‘Seek Magic’ hit Rough Trade last week with a special CD mix disc which alongside Rainbow Arabia has been stuck on my stereo. Thanks to Pat, we’ve just been hit up with a lovely mix [...]

The Greatest track released on Warp Records. 20 years young.

I was to young to appreciate this when it first appeared. I was hooked on NME indie wock. Shame on me. Dedicated to a good friend of mine, Michael - we bonded over good clothes and experiences of drinking tea with the great man in Cornwall. Inspirational.

Rainbows In Arabia

Dudes from (where else but mofo) Brooklyn have been clogging up my stereo this week with their boom dubby bass, arabian hip and sweet femme vocals. What’s not to like….(you’ll love this, if you love M.I.A)

MONDKORF

As the rain falls from the London sky like tiny concrete blocks and we ponder the bodies of beautiful Latino girls, we’re fortunate to live in 2009 and soundtrack our lives by apple merchandise. No matter from which starting point one sets off; along the way lifes aspirations, perspectives and indeed expectations shift. Thus the [...]

Tres exciting

Every so often a track arrives and creates such alarming excitement that I send it around to everyone i know - screaming it’s brilliance and expecting everyone to admire and lust it.
Etienne Jaumet used to be in Zombie Zombie (amazing). Now he’s made a space disco record with ‘For Falling Asleep’ clocking in at 20minutes [...]

Welcome to 88 days in my veins. We usually write from London. Although sometimes we're caught between Brighton, Paris, Barcelona, Berlin and Great Malvern.

I want to stay as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center. Kurt Vonnegut

If there is something that you love. Or something you hate. Or if we have posted a track that you'd rather us not feature please contact us.
