more gubbins for a thursday.

after weeks of struggling with the current pile i received a blast of fresh fuzzed up indie guitar pop that's totally put a smile on my face - the very un-cool, non-2005 styled return of the closing credits of britpop era, silver sun. the new single 'immediate' is a wonderful slice of retro bubblegum pop that sort of thing that never gets any love in the uk, but would do well over in certain sunshine states of america (a la the glorious superdrag who don't even release their albums anymore in the uk - grrr). so when their latest album, 'disappear here' arrived in its debut album styled b-movie artwork i knew the time was right. move over hip hop, move over broken ambient beats, tis time for fuzzed up guitars, and heart filling melodies ! 10 tracks - 30 minutes. glorious. not that anyone in the uk will care. shame.

right - back to the future - akira is heading for the charts, so here's Thursdays Question :

Timing - one major white rappers career appears to be drawing to a close (ie Final Curtain), while, yours is in the state of ascension - coincidence or some big plan strategy ?

Answer : Synergy. Everything is synergy.

Final instalment tomorrow - please be patient, its a cracker

oh, one final thing, i posted a yousendit for a friend recently. the album version of the rather fine 'take it' by age of chance.

if anyone is interested in hearing this collision of samples and indie noise from 87 then click here, surely i dont need to explain who/where/why/what about that leeds gang.

till next time, stay alert.
