Katy B

Unless you only listen to XFM and only read the Metro, you should be aware that dubstep is getting a great big bloody load of attention of late. Not least of all because, well, it's about time.

Katy B is fresh out of the BRIT School, which whilst has had a few dodgy alumni (Dane Bowers, Katie Melua and The Kooks) has helped produce some really fantastic artists (Imogen Heap and Amy Winehouse). And I think if this track by Katy B and Benga is anything to go by, she is certainly 'one to watch'. That phrase just made me gag.

Seriously, her vocals seem to wander seamlessly through cutting beats and top notch dubstep.

I love this track.



Imagine if you only listened to XFM and read The Metro... Do you think people like that really exist? They probably like sitcoms with laughter tracks too. And use the phrase "I'm not being racist but.." a lot. And don't know who Jon Snow is. I hope I never meet one.

Canblaster

I'd like to share some information with you about Canblaster, but then I'd actually have to be in possession of that information.

It basically comes down to the fact I like how this sounds.

Visage

On occasion in order to move forward you need to retread the past. In becoming familiar with the good and the bad of what has happened it is easier to prepare and become keen-eyed for the future.

Whilst re-hashing an essay I recently made a mess of, and have cried far too many tears over, I am also having 1980's electronic pop whistling around.

This is for my increasingly short weekends.

They Might Be Giants

Regardless of how big a sigh I might be taking this song can literally make me jump up and down.

Has it got old? I'm not sure it has...

Just great.

Go away..

I really need to go away.

Get away from all of this.

Tempa T

I am a proper massive fan of Tempa T. I'm not even going to waste my energy giving reasons and justifications. When I meet him you'll see the picture of us shouting "Won't get none of your CD's back" on here post haste.

TEEEEEEEEEEMPZ!

Would you like to dance?

Friday is a day of the week that is representative of an awful lot of different things.

At the end of a week in which most of the control of the trajectory of my short-term financial dealings has been removed from me, I just want to indulge in a bit of mindless dancing. That being said, it has been a surprisingly positive week. All the more reason for dancing, I say.

So this sexy-disco remix will do nicely.
