Perfect Distraction: Sophie Ellis-Bexter’s Crying At The Discotheque

I’ll be honest here, I don’t like change. So when Spiller added some Sophie Ellis-Bexter vocals to Groovejet back in 2000 I wasn’t best impressed. I like my house music like my flock wallpaper, stripped back. But as the years passed and the Aspergers wiring was challenged I grew fond of the lass who was Janet’s pride and joy. Fast forward 20 years (seriously!) and … Continue reading Perfect Distraction: Sophie Ellis-Bexter’s Crying At The Discotheque

Perfect Distraction: ABBA – The Visitors (Mighty Mouse’s Edit For Jim)

To say we love this track is an sequined covered understatement. To say we’ve played this way too many times, way too late, on way too many soundsystems is an even bigger one. And now with this epic Mighty Mouse Edit For Jim those plays will only increase as we feel nothing but the disco love for this lesson in synth pop perfection.

Perfect distraction: Róisín Murphy’s Incapable

Music goes silent when I get ill. Beats replaced with balsam, nightlife replaced with Night Nurse. Thankfully I’m on the mend – aided and abetted by my queen of the dancefloor Ms Murphy as she delivers another slice of magic so healing the lurgy spell I’ve been under is banished far away. Regardless of the occasional hacking cough in rhythm to her Skint beats obviously. … Continue reading Perfect distraction: Róisín Murphy’s Incapable

Rebecca Hoodless feat PXCH : Defenceless

One of the joys of growing older is watching the generations behind you grow and blossom and make you proud.

And for those of … Continue reading Rebecca Hoodless feat PXCH : Defenceless

Perfect Distraction: Let Nature Sing

I’m addicted to vinyl, am nothing without strings or a bass line and find a day without radio a day not worth being part of. And yet above all of this, there in the sky and in the trees and by the sea and the rivers is the most important song of my life. Birdsong. A soundscape I cannot imagine being without, an accompaniment to … Continue reading Perfect Distraction: Let Nature Sing
