Will Young


I have always had a bit of a soft spot for Will Young. And whilst no longer being played 'out there' a great deal any more, I certainly feel a middle aged, even more maternal and cynical version of myself, is happy inside when swaying to this song. If Radio 2 have played it though I might hang myself..

Madonna?

I flagrantly admit I don't care about Madonna, or her legacy, or her ability to 'reinvent' herself, or the power she seems to have over people to still make her interested in her. I don't really care for, or know much of her back catalogue. And I don't give a shit about Vogue.

So I didn't know about this collaboration with two of my favourite women in 21st Century music. Apparently, Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. know something about this Madonna lady that I don't. In fact whatever it is they feel towards her it has led them to deem it acceptable to be backing dancers for her.



To be fair, the Minaj and M.I.A. breakdowns are easily the highlight of this rather lacklustre pop song.

How amazing are those Adidas endorsed breasts!?

The Field - Looping State of Mind


The Field and his work have been - and this is not an understatement - probably the cornerstone of my musical existence since 2007. I would guess that From Here We Go Sublime is the album I have listened to most in my lifetime.

So new material from this artist is of huge significance.

I am still taking time to become acquainted with Looping State of Mind but I really do adore the opening track, Is This Power.

So here it is for your aural pleasure:

01. Is This Power by Nikita Velichko

Did you lose yourself in it? That is a rhetorical question. Of course you did.

Mr Oizo - Stade 2


I'm not one for tattooing, but often when listening to Oizo - I've dropped the Mister - I feel overwhelming that I would happily deliberately scar my body with a permanent display of my love and affiliation for the work of this man.

I'm coming to terms with many things currently. One of those things being Stade 2.

Here is Camelfuck. Apparently it is obvious that I would love from 1:29 onwards. But who wouldn't?

Anyway, I'm off to rejiggle my 'top 5' to make room for Oizo and Eddie Mair.

New Build

A new joint venture.

Very hot off the press. Featuring members of Hot Chip and LCD Soundsystem.

No link to the website as yet because it crashed when they announced it.

But I found the track.

It's great.

Breakbot

Sorry for the lack of content round these here parts. Life is particularly odd. Not great, but chin is still up for now. This track is a little slice of disco magic to help me forget my troubles.
