How are you? How's your lockdown? Here's some music I've enjoyed recently. A lot of it will be from BBC Radio 6 Music, as we've tended to keep it on all day. Community spirit and all that. And Steve Lamacq and Shaun Keaveny haven't been on which helps. Though if they keep playing that sodding Sports Team song that'll soon change...
Anna Meredith - Paramour
Gonna get into Lego train sets.
James Holden & The Animal Spirits - Each Moment Like The First
I've posted about this track before, but it appears the SoundCloud link is kaput, so there's a double reason to post about this spooky wibbler from James Holden & The Animal Spirits.
Todd Surge - Inspector Coarse (DJ Space Heater's HMT VIP)
Anyone for an acid/gabber take on Inspector Norse by Todd Terje? I can't find it on YouTube or SoundCloud, perhaps because DJ Space Heater got impeached for making it. But Spinee drops it around 46 minutes in here.
Bickle - Naked
I know 2009 was really bad with the financial crash and all that but compared to now? It wasn't that bad really was it? The pubs were still open at the very least. So here's Bickle in 2020 with something that sounds like it's for the blogs of 2009.
Nicolas Jaar - Mud
Nicolas Jaar is one of those names that I always see around but I can't tell you much about him. He's played by DJs I like, features in mags I read, but I've never really listened to him. Kinda like Maribou State till recently. Anyway, I don't know if Mud is typical of his output, but there's something in this track's brooding oddness, its funereal march, that worms it's way into my head. Stick with it.
Paul Woolford - Erotic Discourse
Always thought this was Daniel Avery. There you go. Judging by the YouTube comments it was equally popular with the ket and nitrous crowds. There's nice.
Boys Noize - Midnight (Boys Noize & Mr. Oizo Handbraekes Remix)
Can't remember exactly which version they use in Giri/Haji, but we'll go with the Mr Oizo remix because he's always a fun choice for a remix. As I write this you've got 11 days left to catch the first episode of Giri/Haji on iPlayer, and I recommend you do so. It's the second best thing I've watched on lockdown, after...
Joe Exotic - I Saw a Tiger
All hail the Tiger King.
