take a break

following my first hand witnessing of an admittedly minor road rage incident in my cozy little cotswold town on the way home last night, i have come to realise that us brits cant handle the sunshine ! damn people, this is such a rare thing this year - enjoy it and kick back. and so to the soundtrack of such climate change induced temporatures : treva whateva - music's made of memories - new on ninjatune soon. more funky, sample heavy dance floor grooves, been done before, but still mighty fine nonetheless. baikonour - for the lonely hearts of the cosmos - i mean really ? how on earth people dont all have this blasting out of the ikea sanctioned living rooms is beyond me - totally gorgeous instrumental melody driven noises. full review to appear online in the usual place soon. (out on melodic with the best album cover ever ?) junkboy - lost parade - self released second album, continuing their personal journey into post rock, ambient and generally laid back but emotionally distraught vibes. ego twisters party ruiners - seriously fucked up electronic noise from new and interesting french label - check the website for massive mp3's availability. and look orange vinyl ! but be warned - this is not stuff for your sunday afternoon gettogether that's for sure. very messy : egotwister architecture in helsinki - new album out soon on moshi moshi. first play went straight past me. but then something clicked. could become a major playlister. prog-indie orchestral pop music thats anything but cinematic. other honourable mentions : clor album (of course !), lazarus and the return of wrath super sevens till next time, crack'on mark e ireallylovemusic
