Perfect Distractions: XLR8R Podcast 268 – Kim Ann Foxman

Okay so here’s the deal. No one can release any great tunes, amazing albums or outstanding podcasts till I’ve finished my dissertation. Its just too distracting. Dancing like a loon around my study, tune hunting and being inspired to spend 8 hours gathering together material for a new Wildblood and Queenie podcast is just not helping my studies. Oh bugger. Kim Ann Foxman has just … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: XLR8R Podcast 268 – Kim Ann Foxman

Perfect Distractions: Adele ‘Skyfall’

Today’s a good day. Books found, ideas had, dissertation case studies secured and my Jack got Forde-d. Oh and this entered my veins. Raised on Bassey and John Barry I’ve always been a sucker for strings and Paul Epworth’s Skyfall delivers more strings than a children’s dairy snack aisle.  Add our latest millionaire row-er Adele and well all is fine with this Bond addict. Just lets … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Adele ‘Skyfall’

Perfect Distractions: Up Yours ‘Tonight’ Southern Fried Records

  Lets rewind to fast forward. Its the only way to go. Especially when Hifi Sean and Severino are in charge. As this slice of acidic house proves its always best to trust a man with beard. And when there are two of them, well the result is a foregone conclusion. Trust the DJ – especially when they produce productions as fine as this. Hifi … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Up Yours ‘Tonight’ Southern Fried Records

Jesus wept, this is GOOD! Sod the end of summer, I’m keeping warm with this filth. Oh I can’t wait till some 6am dancefloor, a DJ with balls and getting a sweat on to this monster.

Coexist:Being as in love with The xx as I am

Pregnant pauses, steel pans, perfect harmonies and enough innocence fuelled lyrics to twist any heart string. All delivered with an autumnal hum, as the summer ends and the possibilities of fireside nights and wrapped-up days lay ahead. I … Continue reading Coexist:Being as in love with The xx as I am

Oh Florence you enchant me so. Like a wonderland in kooky BPM’s you spin me out and over and in…..in love with you. You make loving Ms Bush a essential, Bjork a normality. You make my day.
