"something for the weekend sir ?"

hell.o

heres some funky fun for the weekend.

1. after years and years, the freelance hellraiser has at last got the album off the blocks. gone are all the aspirations of being all freaky and underground, and instead he has decided to become this years fat boy slim vs moby. thing is , as easy as a target this sounds, for the next few weeks the album will make me smile. but hey - go dig around the flashy website and listen for yourself : here

2. nightmares on wax have a new album out on warp records. and the phrase 'same as it ever was' rings true. a little dub, a little soul, and a lot of love and dope. again, easy to hate, but the music is far to perfect for a lazy sunny day, so i aint becoming a hater.  go dig around the site for more bass induced pleasure : here

3. king biscuit time - steve mason drops the beta band off the planet, and goes off to become a solo artist that just so happens to sound like the beta band, but with more pop, more melody, more weirdness and a lot of decent sounds, new album, 'black gold' is out soon. more : here

oh, and virgin megabores are having a huge clearance of old stock that no-one is interested in. dig carefully and you could find some excellent arena rock recordings cds. in my local shop there is the great calla album, 'televise', carlsonics, and the weird the swords project.

go discover people.
