Does the thought of HEALTH going truly neo-italo-disco terrify you? Does it make each and every hair on your body collectively stand to attention and look up towards the sun? No need to be anxious, no need to accommodate those pangs of nervous anxiety instead clear your mind, clear your body, take that final gulp [...]

Heaven is Max Roach drum solos on a Sunday eve
We were sad when Max Roach died back in 2007. One of the greatest drummers we know. He has played on records we love and with artists we [...]
Love is when you wake up in the morning and you no longer feel alone. Love is when you wake up in the morning and you know tomorrow will be okay; in fact, it’ll be better than yesterday and better than today. Better in the sense that the inner warmth that we radiate will shine [...]
Yikes, Lemonwilde, much like our very own Muse, these American starlets offer a wonderful alternative to Franz and alike. Combining the art of emotive lyrics, post rock and falstetto styled walls of sound. Must admit to this being one of the few tracks we’ve been sent over the last 2/3 weeks that has actually moved [...]
we’ve not moved, really, since we saw yesterday morning’s weather, other than to force the cat out of the back door to go and do his business. batten down the hatches and call in sick to work. logs on fire, kettle boiled, bookshelves raided, and whatever’s in the cupboards for dinner. snow scrooge for 2009.
thanks [...]
Gotta love Dave Okumu, he works with all of London’s finest musicians, then starts the brilliant Jade Fox, only for that to fizzle out without even a record (unless I am wrong) only to steal Tom Herbert and create a whole new jazz supergroup. It’s just that it, their musical output, it’s not jazz. Wonderfully [...]
It’s Getting Boring By The Sea tipped us off about these guys. Three Trapped Tigers sound like an epic scrap between Battles, Holy Fuck, Warp Records and Neu! The Music Media are already hyping these guys, with Time Out and Clash Magazine standing tall in their support. Whilst the sonic structure of this band may [...]

It’s 2008, this man, this man here, direct blood of John Coltrane (that’s newsworthy but not a reason buy the record) has produced a series of records for Warp (great label shite website) that are quite frankly fucking brilliant. The production skills of this boy are ridic. When Gilles Peterson talks about artists joining the [...]
So ex-girlfriends; what a topical and controversial point….
Nothing quite excites me as being reunited with my favorite pair of lips, as watching a perfectly formed bottom stride across the bedroom floor or naked eggs in bed. But would you listen to Miles Davis’ rock/jazz/improv record ‘Jack Johnson’? No? NO? So save it for a candle [...]
