9 in 1 (55)

The Horse Fair by Rosa Bonheur - glitched with 55 on it in a circle frame.

Hi, how are you?

Hiroshi Yoshimura - Creek

One day, I'll get around to buying Green. Yoshimura's 1986 album was mentioned in one of the later chapters in Everything We Do is Music: How 20th-Century Classical Music Shaped Pop by Elizabeth Alker, which I finished off the other day. Good read like.


Manchester String Quartet - Voodoo Ray

Is this a bit too Pete Tong Ibiza Classics? It's right on the line.


Felix Da Housecat - Silver Screen Shower Scene (Thin White Duke Mix by Jacques Lu Cont)

I rarely adore a remix as much as I do the original, but here we are. Georgous orchestral start before it starts jacking, incredible stuff.


The Black Madonna - Venus Requiem

Another one from Acker's book - the chapter focussed on Pauline Oliveros - from the DJ now known as The Blessed Madonna.


Slam - Positive Education (Slam Remix)

No nonsense, heads down techno from Glasgow from 2001. 


Llondon Actress - Country

As flagged on the No Tags pod's best of 2025 episode (and a subsequent Dan Hancox post) there is something interesting going on here, definitely hearing Clams Casino in there on the production.


Lily Allen - Ruminating

Look, I'm just as suprised as you are, but this really gets under the skin.


KW Griff - Bring in the Katz (feat. Pork Chop)

I could watch those Baltimore line dancing videos for hours. The comments section is also a joy.


Hadouken! - That Boy That Girl

2008 was a long long long time ago.
