Only just clocked that the previous post was my 24th of the year, which was my target for this year. After the record low of 23 in 2023, I set myself the target of two posts a month in '24 to take me to 24. And hey, look at us. Who would have thought? Not me.
Joy Orbison - Flight FM
A right rumbler to start us off. Might well make my best of the year list, not gonna lie.
Lemon D - Why? (12 Hz Mix)
Man, how good is that distorted kick/bass? Proper d'n'b. Dillinja last post, now Lemon D, I'm on a Valve tip RN.
Massive Attack - Exchange
The last track on Mezzanine, and probably my fave. Used to play that album so so much. Kinda drifted away from it though. So much in fact, that this is the first time I've posted about Massive Attack in the 15 years I've been doing this blog. Wild times. Wild, wild times.
Aphex Twin - #20
AKA Lichen. Still not bought the £40 cassette reissue, still playing the second-hand copy I got from Tangled Parrot in Carmarthen earlier this year.
The Flying Lizards - Move On Up
One of those covers where I'm not entirely sure how I haven't heard it before now. Curtis Mayfield's all-timer is squeezed of all its funk, leaving it so stiff it becomes funky again. An experience.
The Fall - The Classical
I hope he's saying 'obligatory knickers' there.
Lambrini Girls - Company Culture
Spiky sharp lyrics and spiky sharp guitars with a cheap fun video and a great vocal performance. Really into this.
Floating Points - Fast Forward
I'm just a sucker for spacey propulsive electronic jams like this, I'm sorry but I won't apologise.
Mathew Jonson - Decompression
Grotty, industrial, minimal techno from 2004. Again, I'm a sucker for it.
