FRIEND, OPIE DEINO plus DAUGHTER
October 6th, 2011 by admin
I’m His Girl by FRIEND may not contain the most empowering lyrics in the history of feminism but the tune does the job. Laidback, full of groove and with more than a hint of sleaze this a great song, to listen to, and maybe even something naughtier. Please don’t ask me to explain what OPIE [...]

DOG IS DEAD, DJ SWITCH plus MICHAEL MAYER
September 29th, 2011 by admin
We’ve been with DOG IS DEAD since the very earliest days, and whilst we’ve always known they were set for the big time it’s nice to have that confirmed by one of the world’s biggest record labels who’ve recently signed them for a phat signing on fee, some cake and a couple of chocolate hobnobs. [...]

SWIMMING, WILCO plus FLIGHT FACILITIES
September 3rd, 2011 by admin
The new SWIMMING single is on the way, I thought you should know, why I hear thee say? ‘Cause it’s feckin awesome that’s why, a proper treat for your ears. In fact I think playing ‘Neutron Wireless Crystal‘ to your lug-holes is about the closest they’ll ever come to having a threesome, this track is [...]

KONO MICHI, THE COMPUTERS plus LL COOL J (!)
August 19th, 2011 by admin
KONO MICHI is a brand new artist to me, on first ‘hear’ she appears to be a trippier, contemporary Edith Piaf-Ish. My ineloquence ironically accurately indicates how tricky it is to describe this unique artist in words, listen to the song man, I’m drowning here! And now for something rather different. Think The Beach Boys [...]

THE BULLITS, BEN WESTBEECH plus ROGER SEVENTY TWO
August 5th, 2011 by admin
I’ve expressed my love for the work of THE BULLITS before, if you’re not in to open declarations of unconditional love you should probably jog on, before ya vom. They’ve really got the funk, always a winner with me, throw in THE Soul, THE Groove and THE Swagger and I’m not even go to try [...]

BLOOD ORANGE, MY TIGER MY TIMING plus KANYE & JAY-Z
July 29th, 2011 by admin
Ole Dev Haynes is a talented lad, well that’s the nice way of putting it, a musical skitzo is the other. Man he’s had more incarnations than Greece has had loans. Latest look is the BLOOD ORANGE one and based on its first outing (‘Sutphin Boulevard’) I’m really feeling it. MY TIGER MY TIMING are [...]

DJ SHADOW, TINARIWEN plus CHROMEO and HERCULES AND LOVE AFFAIR
July 22nd, 2011 by admin
DJ SHADOW’s new material is incredibly sick man/ blowing up real big/ destroying dancefloors etc I’ll let you choose your musical cliché of choice. Cliches aside the underlying sentiment is accurate, as new track ‘I’m Excited’ shows. On a slightly different tip, okay humongously different is a track called ‘Tenere Taqqim Tossam’ by TINARIWEN. Hard [...]

DIZZEE RASCAL, D DOUBLE E, SLEIGH BELLS plus DANGEROUS
July 1st, 2011 by admin
Clearly not your thing if you’re not in to Street Music, if you are in anyway partial to a beat, sample or rhyme then you’re going to love this new ‘Bluku! Bluku!’ track. DIZZEE RASCAL helping out mate D DOUBLE E this track is innovative and big, big, big (yes three bigs). Is it possible [...]

DISCLOSURE, LITTLE DRAGON plus GROUP LOVE
June 17th, 2011 by admin
Feeling the chilled ravy vibes of DISCLOSURE and ‘Carnival’ if that’s not a total contradiction in terms. Not much more to say really. It’s great, I’m incoherent. LITTLE DRAGON’s ‘Ritual Union’ has something of similar totally contradictory chilled uplifting vibe to it, it’s a seductive track that one can visualise chilling by the bar in [...]

MY MORNING JACKET, TAWIAH plus MAVERICK SABRE
June 10th, 2011 by admin
Not very often a band get two mentions in the one week, polite applause very much due the way of MY MORNING JACKET. Feeling ‘Victory Dance’ earlier in the week, I’m practically fondling the shimmy-tasticness of ‘Holding On To Black Metal’. Great tune, reckon this could be remixed big time, like this a lot. http://youtu.be/lfDHmVsqUF8 [...]
