Remember Ou Est Le Swimming Pool and that HUGE track ‘Dance The Way I Feel’ back in December - that had everyone on hype kissing their hands (like teenagers for practice?) - well here’s a new track. A bit exclusive (so we’ve been told, a bit special (we believe) and a lot naughty. Ou Est [...]
Welcome to First Aid Kit. So utterly charming that it’s entirely forgiveable to forget that these girls are just 15 and 16. To write songs that resonate with such a classical vocal delivery takes true guile and talent unlike those fakers over at VV Brown HQ. Alas, so totally charmed that I was on a [...]
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

Floor debating on a Saturday evening in North London, the 88dayers decided that despite a glut of awesome tunes this week, we want to send some love to Roxy Music. Oh yes, the dayers bonded over Good Books, Roxy Music, Cardigans and a love of Italian disco and deli products.
Love Manzanera. Love Eno. Love [...]
Sitting in Lucky Number HQ at the start of December, i had to listen to this track and not be able to take it away with me and blog the shizz out of it. 1 month later it’s hit the blogs. Aeroplane are as hot as remixers get right now. They’re the allstars of pop [...]

I have actually had to turn the bloody TV off, so clearly is chips going to win the US election, it’s become really rather pointless. Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to see the Changing man voted in, but seriously, is middle America really going to think and vote sensibly? It would be like middle [...]
Alright so it’s been all over the blogs for the past couple of days…but having first heard this a few weeks ago and thinking “cool!”, I sure as hell wasn’t going to miss out on posting it just because I haven’t caught up with my RSS feeds for a little while…
So Paris, then, by Friendly [...]
‘He so didn’t’! ‘He, like, so did, he like totally broke my trolley man’ - seriously, someone was actually having this argument over the tomato counter in Sainsburys earlier. Anyway - three seriously stupidly hot tracks for you indulge your aural senses with.
Frankmusik, boy genius - black strobe mix, genius - infectious chorus, perfect rhythm [...]
What happens when a bunch of DJ’s from Iceland form a collective with a feisty front woman calling herself DIVA DE LA ROSA? You get Sometime. Synth pop in the vein of Annie, with vocals stylings of Miss Kitten and a definite late 80’s / mid 90’s melodic accessibility. Love. Love.
Recommended listening: shaking ass in [...]
